    A study has been conducted on the process of leaching of zinc dust using oxalic acid by hydrometallurgical method. The sample preparation process starts from the dust zinc washing. The leaching process was started by mixing the sample with solution of 5 M oxalic acid. There were three variations; the ratio of mole, temperature and leaching time to know the optimum .

    existence of zinc was mainly zinc oxide (ZnO) and zinc ferrite (ZnFe. 2. O. 4) while iron was composed of wustite (FeO), metallic iron (Fe) and magnetite (Fe. 3. O. 4). Six different kinds of organic acids were tested to investigate if they were capable of leaching zinc over iron from the filter cake, including oxalic acid (OA), citric acid (CA ...
