Batch leaching procedure

Only material that passed a 1/4-inch meshed screen was used for preparing leachates. The short-term batch leaching procedure was followed, in which deionized water and C R material were mixed end-over-end, in the dark, for 24 h at 24 2 °C. At the end of the 24 h the mixtures were placed into 500 mL tubes and centrifuged to separate the solid materials. The supernatant fluid was filtered through a 0.45 pm filter. A C R material leachate that was processed as described above is referred to as 100% leachate in this study [227,228, 238,239].

Attempts to increase pyrite removal by increasing the reaction time met with limited success under our standard conditions because reaction of the ferric ion with the coal matrix depleted the ferric ion that was needed for extraction of the pyrite. Thus, for example, increasing the coal reaction time from 2 to 12 hrs only increased pyritic sulfur removal from 60 to 80% for Pittsburgh coal. Similar results were obtained for the other three coals. The only alternatives were to increase the amount of leach solution or to use a continuous or semi-continuous (multiple-batch) reactor. A multiple-batch mode was chosen because it was a simple laboratory procedure and at the same time it could approximate conditions encountered in a commercial plant. A 1-hr-per-batch leach time was used because our 2 hr results indicated that in the early stages of removal the rate begins to decrease after 1 hr, and six leaches (or batches) per run were used to assure that any pyrite that could be removed in a reasonable amount of time was removed. The progress of removal was monitored by analyzing the sulfate content in each spent leach solution elemental sulfur was not removed until all the leaches were completed. Table VII shows pyrite extraction as a function of successive leaches as followed by sulfate analysis of the leach solution. Note that the major portion of pyritic sulfur is removed in the first two leaches or 2 hrs, followed by lesser amounts in...

The behavior of elements (toxicity, bioavailability, and distribution) in the environment depends strongly on their chemical forms and type of binding and cannot be reliably predicted on the basis of the total concentration. In order to assess the mobility and reactivity of heavy metal (HM) species in solid samples (soils and sediments), batch sequential extraction procedures are used. HM are fractionated into operationally defined forms under the action of selective leaching reagents. 

Generally, there is no simple and easy theoretical procedure which can provide exact or nearly precise quantitative predictions of what and how much will be adsorbed/desorbed by any solid phase over a period of time [9, 136-139]. Understanding sorption/desorption characteristics of any solid phase materials requires two main laboratory experimental techniques (a) batch equilibrium testing, and (b) continuous solid phase column-leaching testing. These involve... 

A test method for the batch extraction of treated or untreated solid waste or sludge, or solidified waste, to provide an indication of the leaching potential (ASTM D-5233) is also available. The goal of this test method is to provide an extract for measurement of the concentration of various analytes and therefore may be applied to a study of the smaller molecules that reside within the coal matrix. This test method, as written, is intended to provide an extract suitable for measurement of the concentration of analytes that will not volatilize under the conditions of the test method and may appear to offer limitations on the use of coal, but the test method does describe a procedure for performing a batch extraction of a solid. Again, the sampling and handling requirements that may be associated with the analysis of coal should also be applied to the method. 

A system for the Heck reaction between methyl acrylate and iodobenzene has been developed comprising an imidazolium-functionalized polystyrene monolith, initially for use in batch. This system could be reused six times before any reduction in yield was observed. Accordingly, a continuous-flow reactor system was developed using DMF at 200 °C with a residence time of 3-4 min to achieve full conversion. This system was characterized by very low palladium loadings (0.02 mol%), and ICP-MS of the solution aliquots showed leaching of less than 1 ppm. Attempts at using EtOH as solvent to provide a more environmentally and procedurally benign protocol resulted in maximum yields of 85% [144]. 

This paper addresses the release patterns of heavy metals from cement solidified wastes and examines the import of alkalinity in the waste on metal leaching rates. These studies were done using both multiple batch and column extraction procedures. 

Batch extraction of the particle fractions were performed using the U.S. EPA EP-toxicity test and a modified version developed in our laboratories. The 2 main differences in these tests are 1) the EP-toxicity test uses 0.5 N acetic acid to enhance leaching whereas the modified test uses 17.4 N glacial acetic acid and 2) the EP-toxicity test limits the amount of acid added to keep the pH at 5.0 + 0.5 to 40 ml so that the actual pH of the leaching medium may be well above pH 5.0 if additional acid is needed, whereas there was no limit as to how much 17.4 N acetic acid could be added to keep the pH at 5.0 + 0.5 in the modified test. The samples were placed on a shaker-table in a controlled temperature room (20 C) the pH was monitored and adjusted over a 24 hour period as specified in the EP-toxicity test procedure[ 9 ].
