Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to elucidate the formation and growth mechanism of scorodite crystals in the iron (III) oxide addition method. By experiments using stable isotope iron in the hematite (Fe2O3) addition method, it was quantitatively speculated that the gel-like precursor was composed of Fe(II) derived from the solution together with Fe(III), and the Fe(II) was converted to scorodite crystals by electron exchange with Fe(III) derived from hematite. In addition, in the magnetite (Fe3O4) addition method, the detailed effects of solution pH on the formation of gel-like precursor and conversion to scordite crystals was clarified. And, from the experiments of waste solution circulation in the hematite addition method, it was shown that the waste liquid circulation process can be sufficiently realized without complicated procedures.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
現在、国内の銅製錬等の非鉄製錬工程で副産物中に濃縮されるヒ素の有効な最終処分法が無く、ヒ素濃縮物は主に製錬工程に繰り返されている状態である。スコロダイトは広いpH領域で安定な化合物であるためヒ素を安定固定化し、最終処分または長期保管するのに最適な化合物形態である。本研究では、研究代表者らが合成プロセスを開発した固体酸化鉄(III)を原料としたスコロダイト結晶の生成・成長機構の解明を詳細に行うことで、上記プロセスの実用化に向けた科学的基盤を得ることが出来た。また、実用上重要である、廃液循環利用の技術開発に向けた基礎的実験も行い、技術的に十分に可能性を持つことを明らかとした。
