The Principles and Applications of Ammonia Leaching of Metals—A Review
Abstract
An extensive literature survey on the principles and applications of ammonia leaching processes in hydrometallurgy is presented in this paper. The combination of ammonia anal ammonium salts is known to be a powerful lixiviant used in hydrometallurgical processes. Many metals can be extracted using the mixture of ammonia/ammonium. The thermodynamics and kinetics of the dissolution of various metals in ammonia/ammonium salts have been reviewed. The solubility, volatility, and complexation ability of various metals with ammonia have been reviewed and discussed. Eh-pH diagrams of various metal-ammonia-water systems are presented. Also presented is a comprehensive literature survey on the leaching behavior of metals in ammoniacal solutions. The metals considered in this paper are copper, cobalt, nickel, zinc, cadmium, silver, gold and palladium.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
