摘要/Abstract

摘要： The issues of reducing CO₂ emissions, sustainably utilizing naturalmineral resources, and dealing with industrial waste offer challenges for sustainable development in energy and the environment. We propose an efficient methodology via the co-reaction of K-feldspar and phosphogypsum for the extraction of soluble potassium salts and recovery of SO₂ with reduced CO₂ emission and energy consumption. The results of characterization and reactivity evaluation indicated that the partial melting of K-feldspar and phosphogypsum in the hightemperature co-reaction significantly facilitated the reduction of phosphogypsum to SO₂ and the exchange of K⁺ (K-feldspar) with Ca²⁺ (CaSO₄ in phosphogypsum). The reaction parameters were systematically investigated with the highest sulfur recovery ratio of ~60% and K extraction ratio of ~87.7%. This novel methodology possesses an energy consumption reduction of ~28% and CO₂ emission reduction of ~55% comparing with the present typical commercial technologies for utilization of K-feldspar and the treatment of phosphogypsum.
