Pyrite for Heavy Metal Wastewater Treatment

Pyrite powder (S≥35%, 60–200 mesh, -200 mesh≥70%) for heavy metal wastewater treatment by sulfide precipitation. Efficiently removes Cu²⁺, Pb²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, low cost, fast reaction, easy to use for industrial sewage.

Our pyrite powder with sulfur content ≥35% is an ideal raw material for sulfide precipitation method in heavy metal wastewater treatment. Proper 60–200 mesh fineness ensures fast reaction speed, can effectively remove Cu²⁺, Pb²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺ by forming insoluble metal sulfide precipitates. Low cost, stable activity, easy dosing and solid-liquid separation, widely used in industrial sewage treatment projects.

Product Overview

Pyrite (FeS₂) is widely applied in industrial heavy metal wastewater treatment by sulfide precipitation process. Under hydrolysis and reaction in water environment, it releases active sulfide ions, which combine with heavy metal ions to form highly insoluble sulfide sediments.

Adopting controlled grinding and screening, 60–200 mesh grading with -200 mesh ≥70% guarantees fast dissolution and full reaction. Sulfur content ≥35% keeps sufficient chemical activity while maintaining excellent cost performance for continuous wastewater treatment operation.

Core Advantages

  1. Strong Heavy Metal RemovalCan efficiently precipitate copper, lead, zinc, cadmium, mercury and other heavy metal ions, meet discharge standard easily.
  2. Optimized Particle Size for Fast Reaction60–200 mesh, -200 mesh ≥70%, moderate fineness avoids too slow reaction or too fine floating loss.
  3. Balanced Sulfur Activity & CostS≥35% provides enough active sulfur source, much lower cost than sodium sulfide and other chemical agents.
  4. Easy Solid-Liquid SeparationGenerated sulfide flocs are dense, settle fast, reduce sludge treatment difficulty.
  5. Wide AdaptabilitySuitable for mining wastewater, electroplating wastewater, metallurgical and chemical heavy metal sewage treatment.

Applicable scene

  • Heavy metal-containing wastewater from mine beneficiation
  • Wastewater from electroplating plants and circuit board factories
  • Heavy metal wastewater from smelters and chemical plants
  • Advanced treatment of comprehensive wastewater in industrial parks

FAQ

Q1: How does pyrite remove heavy metals in wastewater?

A1: Pyrite releases active sulfide ions in water, reacting with Cu²⁺, Pb²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺ to form insoluble metal sulfide precipitates, then separated by sedimentation and filtration.

Q2: Why choose 60–200 mesh with -200 mesh ≥70%?

A2: This particle size balance reaction speed and settling performance; coarse particle reacts slowly, over-fine powder is easy to suspend and difficult to settle.

Q3: Why sulfur content ≥35%?

A3: It ensures sufficient active sulfur for stable treatment effect, meanwhile keeps raw material cost at a competitive level for long-term dosing.
