- (1)
- In this paper, the collaborative enhanced leaching method of low eutectic solvent–ultrasonic was adopted, and the full-factorial experimental design was used to study the high-efficiency leaching of zinc in the zinc-containing dust mud. The leaching rate (𝜂) was taken as the response value, and Ultrasonic power (A, Ultrasonic power), Temperature (B, Temperature), and leaching time (C, ultrasonic power) were selected. Four conditions (Time) and liquid–solid ratios (D, liquid–solid ratio) are the investigated factors. The optimal leaching conditions obtained in this experiment are as follows: Under the optimal conditions, the ratio of liquid to solid was 7:1, the leaching temperature was 40 °C, the ultrasonic power was 90 W, and the leaching time was 80 min. The predicted value of the regression model was 98.47%. The average zinc leaching rate obtained by the 3 groups of parallel verification experiments was 98.49%, and the deviation from the predicted value of the regression model was 0.02%. The verification experiment results were consistent with the results predicted by the regression model, the experimental results were reliable, and the optimization scheme was reasonable and accurate.
- (2)
- The effects of conventional stirring and ultrasonic strengthening on the leaching rate of zinc in metallurgical dust sludge were compared under the optimum process conditions. The zinc leaching rate was increased by 6.88% under ultrasonic enhancement. At the same time, the zinc leaching rate can be kept above 98%, indicating that the process conditions have a certain guiding significance for practical application.
- (3)
- The treatment of zinc-containing dust mud is a difficult problem in the iron and steel industry. The use of low eutectic solvent–ultrasonic synergism to enhance the leaching of zinc-containing dust mud can reduce industrial loss to a certain extent and has certain economic benefits. However, the separation and utilization of other valuable elements still need further research.
