Abstract
The lead smelting dusts contain complex composition such as Pb, Zn, Cd, S and As, which pose serious environment problem. This research used several physical and chemical methods to study the basic properties of different lead smelting dusts including blast furnace dust, reduction furnace dust, reverberatory furnace dust and bottom blowing furnace dust. The results of characterization showed that these dusts have different phases, element composition and surface morphology. In addition, the distribution of elements and compounds presented a certain trend, which will impact the leachability of their major elements. At the same time, leaching experiments were carried out on thefour types lead smelting dusts to provide leachability information for metal recovery.
