The invention discloses a method for preferably removing
arsenic in lead and
antimony smoke. The method comprises the following steps that firstly, sulphur and the lead and
antimony smoke are mixed according to the
mass ratio of 0.01-0.5:1, then the mixture is added into a
sodium hydroxide solution to be leached, and meanwhile the temperature of the solution is kept within the range from 50 DEG C to 100 DEG C; secondly, liquid and
solid separation is carried out on the solution leached in the first step, and a leaching agent and leaching residues are obtained; the leaching residues are washed, washing water obtained after washing is completed and the leaching agent are mixed and cooled to the
room temperature, and filtering is carried out to obtain
sodium arsenate crystal and crystalline liquid; and the crystalline liquid is used for leaching of the lead and
antimony smoke in the first step. According to the technology method, the loss of valuable
metal such as lead, antimony and
zinc in the
arsenic leaching and removing process is reduced through the adding of sulphur, meanwhile, the
arsenic removing rate is increased, and selective removing of arsenic is achieved. The
leaching rate of arsenic can reach 99% or more, and the content of arsenic in the leached residues can be reduced to 0.1% or lower.
