<p dir="ltr">This study investigates the simultaneous microwave-assisted acid leaching of copper and cobalt from a binary chalcopyrite (CuFeS₂)-heterogenite (Co₂O₃) system.
Description
Statistical optimization using Taguchi methodology and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was employed to evaluate the influence of key operational parameters: microwave power (140–560 W), irradiation time (4–10 min), sulfuric acid concentration (50–95 g/L), and the chalcopyrite/heterogenite stoichiometric ratio (1:0 to 1:3).
A robust L16 (4⁴) orthogonal array guided the experimental design. The results identified the chalcopyrite/heterogenite ratio as the most significant parameter, contributing 78.06% and 86.61% to the variance in copper and cobalt dissolution, respectively. Optimal conditions for copper extraction were 560 W, 10 min, 50 g/L H₂SO₄, and a 1:2 ratio, yielding 54.64% Cu.

For cobalt, optimal conditions were 420 W, 10 min, 95 g/L H₂SO₄, and a 1:1 ratio, yielding 56.74% Co. By extending the irradiation time to 25 minutes at 420 W, leaching efficiencies increased significantly to 67.76% for copper and 81.04% for cobalt. The study proposes a synergistic leaching mechanism governed by an Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ redox cycle, enhanced by microwave irradiation.
This work demonstrates the potential of microwave-assisted leaching as an efficient and selective method for recovering valuable metals from complex sulfide-oxide ores.</p>
