Ammonia process electrodialytic lead production
Thread Content
Zinc-lead containing solution is obtained by leaching zinc suboxide with ammonia-ammonium chloride; lead is electrolytically extracted first followed by zinc. I would be very grateful if experts could share their insights!
What are the levels of Pb and Zn? The lead content is relatively low; it’s likely that electrolytic removal isn’t feasible.
About 50 g/L Zn, about 8 g/L Pb
