Production of carbon sorbents for metal recovery from metal salt solutions

The article discusses methods of chemical oxidation of various carbon-bearing materials (natural and artificial black lead and different rank fossil coals), in particular, the methods of Hammers and Hoffman. The authors offer a brief description of the procedure meant for preliminary treatment of carbon-bearing materials and their subsequent oxidation. The data on variation in the total content of functional oxygen-bearing groups after the oxidation and their sorption activity relative to cobalt ions (II) at different values of pH are presented. It is found that the total number of functional oxygen-bearing groups in the oxidized materials on the basis of fossil coals is much lower than in the materials of natural and artificial black leads. It is shown that adsorption capacity relative to cobalt is commensurable in the oxidized carbon materials and of black leads and coals at neutral pH. It is supposed that at pH = 10 it is possible that chemosorption at oxidized carbon materials can run simultaneously with formation of insoluble compounds of cobalt (oxides and hydroxides). The applicability of the test coals in production of carbon sorbents for extraction of cobalt ions form cobalt salt solutions at different pH is illustrated.
