One kind uses I2The method that gold refining is carried out with NaI
Technical field
The invention belongs to metal smelt technical field, and in particular to one kind uses I2The method that gold refining is carried out with NaI.
Background technology
For most of gold manufacturing enterprises, the gold product purity of traditional smelting process production can not be met
It is required that.In order to adapt to the change in market as early as possible, more economic benefits are created, enterprise is just actively fermenting carries out skill to smelting process
Art updates, and using advanced gold refining techniques, promotes the product up-gradation of enterprise.Therefore, the research of gold refining techniques and open
Hair application is increasingly paid attention to by gold manufacturing enterprises.
Being presently used for the method for gold refining mainly has chloroazotic acid method, chloridising (Boliden techniques), extraction, electrolysis
Four kinds.Wherein, chloroazotic acid method, extraction have the shortcomings that similar:Exhausted air quantity is big, and intractability is high;Wastewater flow rate is larger, HCl concentration
Height, processing cost is high;During using chloridising, waste gas, waste water yield are big, and processing cost is high, and equipment investment is big, and contains in raw material
There is chlorine, there is larger potential safety hazard;The waste water and gas yield of electrolysis is small, and processing cost is low, but gold overstock compared with
Many, refining cycle is long, and production cost is higher.Table 1 is the comparison figure of four kinds of gold method of refining.
The comparison sheet of 1 four kinds of gold method of refining of table
As can be seen from the above table, these four gold method of refining are respectively provided with certain limitation, hinder them in industry
On further application, therefore, also urgently need a kind of new gold method of refining of development.
The content of the invention
I is used the invention provides one kind2The method that gold refining is carried out with NaI, concrete technical scheme is as follows:
One kind uses I2The method that gold refining is carried out with NaI, is concretely comprised the following steps:
(1) powder by atomization:Using hydraulic atomized powder manufacturing apparatus, thick gold is melted, and be atomized, coagulated using High-Pressure Water
Gu, obtain bronze;
(2) dissolve:The bronze that step (1) is obtained is added in the reactor equipped with elemental iodine and NaI, adds ion exchange
Water, leaching is completely dissolved bronze, obtains NaAuI4Solution;Reaction equation is:2Au+3I2+ 2NaI=2NaAuI4;
(3) filter:Solution is adjusted to pH=8.5-9.0, insoluble AgI and other metal impurities is filtered to remove, filter residue is sent
Enter silver recovery system;
(4) reduce:NaAuI is reduced with catholyte4Solution, washs after drying through deionized water, obtains proof gold powder;Reaction equation
For:2NaAuI4+ 6NaOH=2Au+7NaI+NaIO3+3H2O;
(5) it is electrolysed:The micro NaAuI not reduced by catholyte4Negative electrode is deposited on silver, platinum, palladium, step (4) generation
NaI solution is electrolysed into iodine generator, and cathodic region obtains NaOH and NaI mixed solution, and anode region obtains iodine and NaI
Mixed solution;NaOH and NaI is used for step (4) and reduces process, and iodine and NaI are used for step (2) dissolution process;Reaction equation is:
Anode 2NaI=I2+2Na++2e
Negative electrode NaIO3+3H2O+6e=NaI+6OH-
Na++OH-=NaOH.
Step (1) obtains the mesh of the particle diameter of bronze≤60.
In step (1), the model JTSWH-30 of hydraulic atomized powder manufacturing apparatus, the time is 40-60min.
In step (2), the ratio between bronze, elemental iodine, consumption of NaI and ion exchange water are 1kg:2kg:3.1kg:(6-
10L)。
In step (2), reaction temperature is 40-55 DEG C, and speed of agitator is 120r/min, and extraction time is 80-120min.
In step (3), with 1.0 × 10-2M sodium hydroxide solution adjusts the pH value of solution.
The composition of step (4) described catholyte includes NaOH and NaI, concentration >=3M of the NaOH, the NaOH with it is thick
The quality of gold is (620-730g):1000g.
The percent reduction of step (4) reduction is 98.5-99.6%.
In step (5), electrolytic condition is:Tank voltage 3.8-4.3V, current density 150-230A/m2, step (4) generation
The concentration of NaI solution is 500-800g/L.
Fineness of gold >=99.995% obtained using the above method.
Beneficial effects of the present invention are:The present invention avoids using strong acid and severe poisonous chemicals, refining in gold refining process
Golden raw material I2With NaI is renewable in system realizes automatic cycle, the NaOH of output is used to reduce gold, once puts into, no
Chemical reagent must be added again;And I2It is the important source material of medicine food industry with NaI.The method of the invention does not produce waste gas and given up
Water, refining cycle is only 3-5 hours, only need to use electric energy, security risk is low, and the purity for obtaining gold can reach 99.995%.
The gold method of refining is truly realized the high target of environment-friendly, economical rationality, technical feasibility, easy to operate, product quality,
It is the optimal selection for realizing pollution-free gold metallurgy.
