مستخلص: • Zn sulfide precipitate was most stable and barely affected by the contaminants. • Simultaneous hydrolysis of Al3+ and HS− reduced the recovery of Ni and Co. • Fe2+ affected the precipitation characteristics via competitive precipitation. • Fe2+ sulfide precipitate also provided active adsorption sites. In this study, the effects of Al3+ and Fe2+ on the precipitation characteristics of four valuable metals, including Mn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, and Zn2+, were investigated by conducting solution chemistry calculations, sulfide precipitation tests, and mineralogy characterizations. It was found that the ability of the valuable metals to form sulfide precipitates followed an order of Zn2+ > Ni2+ > Co2+ > Mn2+. The sulfide precipitate of Zn2+ was the most stable and did not re-dissolve under the acidic condition (pH 4.00 ± 0.05). In addition, the sulfide precipitation characteristics of Zn2+ was barely affected by the contaminant metal ions. However, in the presence of Al3+, the precipitation recoveries of Mn2+, Ni2+, and Co2+ were noticeably reduced due to simultaneous hydrolysis and competitive adsorption. The precipitation recoveries of Ni2+ and Co2+ in solutions containing individual valuable metals also reduced when Fe2+ was present, primarily due to competitive precipitation. However, the recovery of Mn2+ was enhanced due to the formation of ferrous sulfide precipitate, providing abundant active adsorption sites for Mn species. In the solution containing all the valuable metals, Fe2+ promoted the recovery of the valuable metals due to the higher concentration of Na 2 S and the formation of ferrous sulfide precipitate.
