Analysis reveals significant concentrations of rare and non-ferrous metals in zinc waste, suggesting enhanced resource recovery methods.
The article is dedicated to the analysis and development of methods for extracting rare and non-ferrous metals from technogenic waste of zinc production, using the example of the JSC “Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Complex” (AGMK). The study examines various products and by-products of zinc production, such as concentrate, clinker, and dust, which contain significant concentrations of metals, including cadmium, indium, copper, lead, and rare metals (iridium, tantalum, thulium, etc.). Methods used, such as X-ray fluorescence analysis and atomic absorption spectroscopy, allowed for the determination of the distribution of these elements in the processing process. The results of the study show that the processing of technogenic waste from zinc production with the extraction of valuable components can significantly reduce the environmental impact and increase economic efficiency, contributing to the rational use of mineral resources and the principles of sustainable development.
