Abstract

Language:

Monocalcium phosphate monohydrate (MCPM) with a chemical formula of Ca(H2PO4)2.H2O is a water-soluble and powerful agent for metal ion immobilization (removal) in soil and water. The use of MCPM can, therefore, be considered an innovative and effective way to remove the leachable heavy metals from copper smelting slag. This study aims to (1) characterize copper smelting slag and perform batch precipitation tests using MCPM, (2) analyze the treated copper smelting slag (residue) by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and (3) elucidate the mechanism of MCPM on leachable heavy metal removal from slag. The experimental results demonstrated that MCPM effectively removes Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sr, and Zn metal ions from copper smelting slag under different MCPM concentrations and reaction times. In addition, the XRD analysis reveals the formation of insoluble metal phosphates such as Cd3(PO4)2, Cu2(PO4)2OH, Fe3(PO4)2, Mn3(PO4)2, Pb3(PO4)2, and Zn3(PO4)2 in the residue of copper smelting slag.
