Co-precipitation of ferrihydrite and silica from acidic hydrometallurgical solutions and its impact on the paragoethite process

Ferrihydrite is a common iron oxyhydroxide, produced both naturally and industrially. It is often found in association with silica; an example of this is its occurrence in the Paragoethite process applied in zinc hydrometallurgy for the removal of iron from acidic sulphate solutions. In this process...
