Description

A kind of method of Ti recovery and bismuth from bismuth-germanium-oxide crystal processing waste material
Technical field
The invention belongs to bismuth germanium oxide waste recovery and utilize field.
Background technology
Bismuth germanium oxide chemical formula is Bi 4ge 3o 12, be called for short BGO, in BGO, the valency of bismuth is+3 valencys, and the valency of germanium is+4 valencys.Early 1980s, Shanghai Inst. of Silicate, Chinese Academy of Sciences adopts falling crucible method successfully to grown large size bismuth germanium oxide (Bi 4ge 3o 12) monocrystalline.Because this crystal stops that energetic ray ability is strong, resolving power is high, thus the detection of high energy particle and energetic ray is particularly suitable for, be widely used in research fields such as ultimate particle, space physics and high energy physics, and be extremely successfully used on the electromagnetic calorimeter of CERN L3 electron-positron collider.Due to the physicals of bismuth germanium oxide (BGO) crystal uniqueness, it is made to be widely used in high energy physics, space science, nuclear medicine etc.
BGO crystal loss ratio in the postorder course of processing is comparatively large, about has the loss of 20-40%.In addition, because the polishing grinding wheel of BGO crystal carries out, the chip on bruting process medium plain emery wheel can enter in waste material, in waste material, introduce silicon-dioxide.
The output of current domestic BGO crystal is 6-8 ton/year, and the BGO crystal pro cessing waste material of generation has 2-3 ton/year containing about BGO, and in current domestic BGO waste material, main component is:
Title Ge,% Bi,% SiO 2,% Other
BGO waste material 2--5 7--20 70--85 3-5
Can be found out by above analytical results, inside these BGO waste materials, the value of germanium, bismuth is all very high, needs synthetical recovery.For the recovery of germanium in BGO waste material, domestic generally have two kinds of methods:
First method adds hydrochloric acid by liquid-solid ratio 2: 1-3: 1, adds appropriate potassium permanganate, distills, steamed by germanium with the form of germanium tetrachloride under the condition of temperature 105-110 DEG C; Bismuth-containing solution limestone vegetation after distillation obtains in bismuth-containing and slag.
Bi 4Ge 3O 12+12Cl -+24H +=4Bi 3++3GeCl 4↑+12H 2O
Bi 3++3OH -=Bi(OH) 3
Germanium in BGO waste material leaches under the condition of temperature about 100 DEG C by liquid-solid ratio 3: 1-4: 1 by the alkali lye of second method containing sodium hydroxide 200-300g/l, and the germanic alkali lye obtained salt adding acid distillation after acidifying obtains germanium tetrachloride; Leached mud Leaching in Hydrochloric Acid bismuth, then neutralization obtains bismuth slag.
Bi 4Ge 3O 12+6OH -=3GeO 3 2-↑+2Bi 2O 3+3H 2O
GeO 3 2+2H +=GeO 2+H 2O
GeO 2+4H ++4Cl -=GeCl 4↑+2H 2O
Bi 2O 3+6H +=2Bi 3++3H 2O
Bi 3++3OH -=Bi(OH) 3
Comprehensive condition is as following table:
* the Ge rate of recovery and the Bi rate of recovery all refer to the rate of recovery in bismuth-germanium-oxide crystal processing waste material removal process.
Visible, the rate of recovery of first method germanium is higher, very low with bismuth in slag in obtaining.Analysis reason is that the raffinate acidity after distillation is higher, uses limestone vegetation, produces the very large quantity of slag, so the content of bismuth is low in slag.If so low bi content will carry out recovery to be needed first to carry out to leach-be hydrolyzed-and retailoring just can obtain thick bismuth, and energy consumption is high, and enter bismuth smelting system at follow-up bismuth slag and reclaim in the process of bismuth, the comprehensive yield of bismuth only has about 50%.
Also visible, the rate of recovery of second method germanium is lower, and in the bismuth-containing slag obtained, bi content increases.Analyzing reason is containing SiO inside BGO waste material 2, in basic solution leaching process, not only BGO structure is not sufficiently damaged but also SiO 2existence need to consume alkali greatly, cause the leaching yield of germanium low; Leach the bismuth-containing hydrochloric acid for dreg after germanium to leach, then with ash neutralization, the quantity of slag of generation is still very large, so the content of bismuth improves not obvious in slag.Reclaiming bismuth needs first to carry out to leach-be hydrolyzed-and retailoring just can obtain thick bismuth, and energy consumption is high, and enter at follow-up bismuth slag in the process of bismuth smelting system recovery bismuth, the comprehensive yield of bismuth also only has about 70%.
Can be found out by above analysis, this this raw material effect of two kinds of mode process is all bad, there is the problem that comprehensive recovery is low, bismuth-containing item position is low, and especially second method energy consumption, subsidiary material consumption are larger, cost remains high, and the rate of recovery of precious metal germanium is very low.And in above-mentioned two kinds of methods, be all neutralize containing Bi with lime 3+acidleach raffinate generate in hydrogeneous bismuth oxide and slag, the take-back model of bismuth does not have substantial improvements.In order to solve the problem, inventor developed the technology of new Ti recovery and bismuth from BGO waste material, so that can simultaneously with high-recovery Ti recovery and bismuth from BGO waste material.
