摘要

The extraction of indium from secondary resources of indium-containing solid waste has gained significant attention in recent years. This study focuses on the investigation of a typical indium-bearing zinc ferrite derived from indium-containing solid waste. The effects of CaO, reduction time, and reduction temperature on the volatilization of indium and zinc were examined. The volatilization behavior and morphological changes of indium and zinc were characterized using XRF, XRD, and SEM-EDS. The results showed that the addition of CaO inhibits the formation of the intermediate Fe0.85-xZnxO and promotes the volatilization of zinc and indium. When indium-bearing zinc ferrite was subjected to reduction in the presence of CaO at 1100°C for 30 min, the volatilities of zinc and indium reached 95.75% and 86.08% respectively. It was observed that there existed a strong linear correlation between the volatilities of zinc and indium. The volatilization model for indium from a first-order chemical reaction model (without CaO) to a three-dimensional diffusion model (with CaO), resulting in a significant reduction in the apparent activation energy from 361.87 kJ mol− 1 to 63.37 kJ mol− 1. The CaO facilitates the enrichment of volatile elements and creates favorable conditions for the volatilization of zinc and indium.
