The aim of this study was to investigate the dissolution kinetics of Chevreul's salt in hydrochloric acid [HCl] solutions in a mechanical agitation system and to precipitate Chevreul's salt [Cu2SO3 center dot CuSO3 center dot 2H(2)O] using ammonium sulfide [(NH4)(2)SO3] solutions at various concentrations from synthetic aqueous copper(II) sulfate [CuSO4] solutions. Reaction temperature, concentration of HCl, stirring speed and solid/liquid ratio were selected as parameters. The experimental results were successfully correlated by linear regression using Statistica Package Program. Dissolution curves were evaluated in order to test shrinking core models for solid-fluid systems. It was observed that increase in the reaction temperature and decrease in the solid/liquid ratio causes an increase the dissolution rate of Chevreul's salt. The dissolution extent is highly increased with increase the concentration of HCl solutions in the experimental conditions. The activation energy was found to be as 57 kJ/mol. The leaching of Chevreul's salt was controlled by diffusion through the ash or product layer. (C) 2013 The Korean Society of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry. Published by Elsevier B.V.
