Influence of gas medium on some regularities of chloride distillation

Abstract

For a more detailed study of the process of processing of cinders of pyrite concentrates by chloride distillation method studied the kinetics of transition to the gas phase of cobalt and iron and the effect on the sublimation of metals composition of the gas medium. Experiments were carried out on the cinder with a grain size of -0.25+0.16 mm, containing 0.5% sulfur. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that almost all the iron in the cinder is represented by oxide.Installation for chlorination experiments, described in detail by A. K. Orlov and I. N. Piskunov [1963 a, b], supplemented only by a furnace for purification of nitrogen from oxygen with the help of gopkalitovoy mixture and loading device, allowing the introduction of a sample of cinders in the reaction space after reaching the operating temperature and the specified composition of the gas mixture (10-12 min to displace air from the system after heating the reactor).
