Ag. Morachevskii et al., BEHAVIOR OF ANTIMONY IN DESULFATION OF THE ACTIVE-SUBSTANCE OF LEAD BATTERY SCRAP, Russian journal of applied chemistry, 68(1), 1995, pp. 111-112
A search for ecologically safe methods for recovering lead battery scr
ap is one of the urgent problems facing nonferrous reprocessing metall
urgy. Desulfation of the active substance of positive and negative pla
tes with solutions of sodium hydroxide or carbonate may become one of
the central operations in such methods. Here we study the behavior of
antimony, which is an admixture in the active substance, under various
conditions of desulfation.
