A new method of preparation high purity nickel sulfate assisted by ultrasonic was studied. The process mechanism was analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS).The reaction mechanisms of oxidizing leaching and ultrasonic leaching were explored, respectively. Results showed that ultrasonic treatment peel off the oxide film on the surface of nickel. The leachate under strongly agitated, the yield rate of nickel sulfate was accelerate. And the reaction area was increased by the cavitation effect, the liquid-solid reaction was promoted, and the activation energy was reduced. The leaching rate of nickel reached 46.29% by conventional leaching, which takes about 5h. Under the same conditions, the ultrasonic leaching rate reached 40%, only half of the conventional leaching time. Concentration of leaching agent, reaction temperature, ultrasonic power, leaching time had significant effect on the enhancement of the leaching reaction with ultrasonic radiation. The leaching rate of 60.41% under the optimum experiment conditions as follows: sulfuric acid concentration 30%, hydrogen peroxide 10%, leaching temperature 333K, ultrasonic power 200W and leaching time 4h. The kinetic study of the system was investigated, and the reaction rates of conventional leaching and ultrasonic leaching were controlled by diffusion, and the apparent activation energies were 16.2kJ/mol and 11.83kJ/mol.

In this research, the extraction of zinc from the blast furnace dust in the ammonia leaching system containing different leaching agents (NH ₃ , (NH ₄ ) ₃ AC, (NH ₄ ) ₂ CO ₃ , (NH ₄ ) ₂ SO ₄ , NH ₄ Cl) was investigated. Meanwhile, the effects of different total ammonia concentrations, ammonia/ammonium ratios, solid-liquid ratios, stirring speeds, and leaching temperatures on the extraction of zinc were studied. The results showed that ammonium sulfate was particularly effective and the extraction efficiency of zinc is up to 86.48% under the following conditions: total ammonia concentration of 5.0 mol/l, ammonia/ammonium ratio of 1:1, solid-liquid ratio of 1:5, temperature of 45°C, leaching time of 60 min, and stirring speed of 350 rpm.
