Using simulation and lab validation to develop a MnCO3 Recovery Process using CO2 by Sibanda, Thabo

“…The thermodynamic simulation predicted more than 94% Mn2+ recovery at pH > 5.0, with optimal Mn2+ selectivity at pH < 6.6. The experimental results showed optimal Mn2+ recovery of 61.3% at pH 6.6 and 8 h CO2 bubbling time, with the rejection of 57.6% Mg2+ and 46.3% Ca2+ from the MnCO3 precipitate, respectively. …”
