Method for immobilizing arsenic, and arsenic-containing vitrified waste
A method for immobilizing arsenic includes adding calcium arsenate to a glass-forming material containing iron, silica, and alkaline components so that an iron/silica weight ratio is in a range of 0.5 to 0.9 and an amount of alkaline components is in a range of 14 wt % to 26 wt %, and thereby incorporating the arsenic into a glass solidified body. For example, the method for immobilizing arsenic may include: adding an alkaline solution and an oxidizing agent to a copper-arsenic-containing substance, and thereby carrying out an oxidizing leaching; separating a leach residue by solid-liquid separation; adding calcium hydroxide to a recovered alkaline arsenate solution to generate calcium arsenate; and adding the glass-forming material to the recovered calcium arsenate so that the iron/silica weight ratio and the amount of alkaline components are in the above-mentioned ranges, and thereby incorporating the arsenic into the glass solidified body.
METHOD FOR COMPREHENSIVELY PROCESSING NOBLE LEAD
A method for comprehensively processing noble lead provided and utilizes two instances of vacuum distillation to realize an open circuit of arsenic, lead, antimony and bismuth and the high-efficiency enrichment of precious metals of gold and silver, and can obtain elemental arsenic, a lead-bismuth-antimony alloy, a silver alloy and a copper alloy, respectively. The lead-bismuth-antimony alloy, the silver alloy and the copper alloy are processed by oxidation refining, electrorefining and chlorination refining to obtain refined lead, refined antimony, antimony trioxide, electrolytic silver and electrolytic copper, and to realize gold enrichment. The entire process has advantages of high metal direct yield, low energy consumption, short flow chart, simple equipment, etc., and vacuum distillation belongs to a physical process in which the alloy can be separated only by means of the difference in saturated vapor pressure between the metals, without generation of wastewater, waste gas and waste residue.

METHOD FOR PRODUCING LOW-ARSENIC COPPER CONCENTRATE
In producing a copper concentrate by flotation in which copper minerals are separated from arsenic minerals by using oxoacids of sulfur and oxidants, the arsenic in the copper concentrate is reduced by a simple method. In producing the copper concentrate by the flotation in which an arsenic-containing copper ore is a raw material, the oxoacids of sulfur and hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant are used together as additive reagents, and added in this order.
