Production of SrCO3 and (NH4)(2)SO4 by the Dry Mechanochemical Processing of Celestite. Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry, 18(2), 834-838. Doi:10.1016/j.jiec.2011.11.1451226-086Xhttps://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jiec.2011.11.145https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12395/28338A SrCO3 formation starting from activated SrSO4-(NH4)(2)CO3 mixtures as a result of dry mechanochemical treatment for 180 min in a planetary ball mill of celestite together with (NH4)(2)CO3 was studied. The phases that formed during milling were successfully characterized by X-ray diffraction measurement (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and chemical analysis. A novel hydrometallurgical process to convert both SrCO3 (product) and (NH4)(2)SO4 (by-product) from celestite via dry mechanochemical conversion with (NH4)(2)CO3 was developed for the first time in this work. Under optimum conditions, the conversion of SrCO3 was 98.1%. The (NH4)(2)SO4 leach solution was crystallized.en10.1016/j.jiec.2011.11.145info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessChemical processesIon exchangeLeachingOptimizationConversionCelestiteArticle182834838Q1WOS:000301274200045Q1
