Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effect of ultrasonic application on the production of precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) particles from desulfurization gypsum via direct mineral carbonation method using conventional and venturi tube reactors in the presence of different alkali sources (NaOH, KOH and NH4OH). The venturi tube was designed to determine the effect of ultrasonication on PCC production. Ultrasonic application was performed three times (before, during, and after PCC production) to evaluate its exact effect on the properties of the PCC particles. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Atomic force microscope (AFM), specific surface area (SSA), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), and particle size analyses were performed. Results revealed the strong influence of the reactor types on the nucleation rate of PCC particles. The presence of Na+ or K+ ions in the production resulted in producing PCC particles containing only calcite crystals, while a mixture of vaterite and calcite crystals was observed if NH4+ ions were present. The use of ultrasonic power during PCC production resulted in producing cubic calcite rather than vaterite crystals in the presence of all ions. It was determined that ultrasonic power should be conducted in the venturi tube before PCC production to obtain PCC particles with superior properties (uniform particle size, nanosized crystals, and high SSA value). The resulting PCC particles in this study can be suitably used in paint, paper, and plastic industries according to the ASTM standards.

ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2019; 52:484-492. [PMID: 30595487 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2018.12.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2018] [Revised: 12/06/2018] [Accepted: 12/14/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), one of the most important lithium compounds, is usually prepared from lithium-containing solution. The lithium recovery rate and the purity of Li2CO3 are highly dependent on the lithium concentration. In order to get a high lithium recovery rate, high concentrated lithium-containing solution is required, while the purity of Li2CO3 can be low remaining a significant amount of impurities. Usually, it is not possible to obtain high purity Li2CO3 by single-step precipitation with a relatively high lithium recovery rate especially from a low concentrated lithium-containing solution. In this research, ultrasound is introduced to increase lithium recovery rate and prepare industrial grade Li2CO3. The research found that ultrasound can significantly reduce the polymerization of Li2CO3 crystal particles and promote dissociation of impurity ions. At the same time, ultrasound accelerates the nucleation process of Li2CO3 and boosts lithium recovery rate because of cavitation. The different parameters during the Li2CO3 precipitation process were systematically discussed. Under the optimized conditions, the lithium recovery rate can be increased by 12% with a global lithium recovery rate of 97.4%. Li2CO3 with a purity higher than industrial grade can be obtained by one-step precipitation. It demonstrates a potential pathway for effective lithium recovery from low concentrated lithium-containing solution and preparation of industrial grade Li2CO3.
