Description

Beneficiation method for low-grade zinc-containing raw ore
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the comprehensive technical field of inorganic chemical industry and mineral processing technology, relates to resource utilization of low-grade zinc-containing raw ore, and particularly relates to a mineral processing method of low-grade zinc-containing raw ore.
Background
The production and consumption of zinc in China are at the top of the world, domestic zinc resources cannot meet the production, and a large amount of zinc raw materials need to be imported every year. China is a country with abundant zinc oxide resources, and the reserve of zinc metal in zinc oxide ores in China is about 2800 ten thousand tons, which accounts for about 27.7 percent of the reserve of zinc metal in the zinc oxide ores in the world. The zinc oxide ore in China is low in zinc grade on the whole, the average grade is less than 5%, the reserves of dead ore and lean ore which cannot be economically utilized at present account for the vast majority, and mining tailings containing 3-5% of zinc oxide and billions of tons of the mining tailings are stockpiled.
Therefore, the method has important strategic significance for effectively developing and utilizing low-grade zinc oxide ore resources and relieving the problem of insufficient supply of domestic zinc raw materials.
The main process for utilizing the low-grade zinc oxide ore comprises the following steps: the production of the zinc hypoxide by the pyrogenic process is limited by national industrial policies due to the high energy consumption and high pollution of the process.
Flotation is the main process of the low-grade zinc oxide ore at present, but regarding the zinc oxide flotation process, the foreign zinc oxide ore sorting indexes are as follows: the zinc grade is 36-40%, the recovery rate is 60-70%, and the highest recovery rate is 78%; the selection indexes of the zinc oxide ore in China are as follows: the zinc grade is 35-38%, the recovery rate is 68% on average, and the highest recovery rate is 73%. Therefore, the problems of low ore dressing recovery rate, low concentrate grade and the like are common problems existing in the ore dressing of zinc oxide ores at home and abroad, a large amount of sodium sulfide needs to be added for vulcanization treatment in the flotation of zinc oxide, and zinc sulfide can be directly used as a raw material for producing metal zinc or zinc oxide after being treated by a pyrogenic process, so that the energy consumption is high and the pollution is serious.
As for the wet extraction of zinc ore, sulfuric acid leaching, calcium chloride, ammonium chloride, etc. are mainly known in the prior art. The sulfuric acid leaching method has low selectivity, can leach a large amount of soluble silicon in the ore, the generated colloidal silicon is difficult to filter, and the acid leaching method generates a large amount of sulfate slag, so that great environmental protection treatment pressure is caused; the sulfuric acid leaching can not treat the zinc silicate and zinc ferrite components in the ore. The calcium chloride method cannot effectively treat leaching of components such as zinc silicate, zinc ferrite and the like in raw ores, and has the disadvantages of unsatisfactory leaching rate, high-temperature leaching and poor comprehensive economic benefit. In the ammonium chloride process, however, the recovery of zinc from the leachate after leaching the crude ore is very difficult and is not suitable for industrial use.
Therefore, the existing process cannot satisfactorily utilize the low-grade zinc-containing raw ore.

The concrete process steps
Step 1 extraction
Mixing the ground low-grade zinc-containing raw ore with a prepared leaching agent according to a certain proportion, and stirring and leaching. The leaching agent may be selected from: a mixed aqueous solution of ammonia and ammonium bicarbonate; a mixed aqueous solution of ammonia and ammonium carbonate; a mixed aqueous solution of ammonia, ammonium bicarbonate and ammonium carbonate.
The concentration of total ammonia and the concentration of available carbonate in the leaching agent are not particularly limited, and those skilled in the art can select the concentration according to the actual needs by combining the factors such as raw ore components, grade and the like.
In the preferred scheme, the mass concentration of the total ammonia in the leaching agent is 5-15%, more preferably 6-8%, and the preferred concentration range can achieve sufficient leaching effect and avoid the problems of waste and environmental protection caused by excessive ammonia.
In a preferred scheme, the amount of available carbonate in the leaching agent is increased by 0-500% on the basis of the difference obtained by subtracting the amount of carbonate introduced by zinc carbonate in the raw material from the theoretical consumption of carbonate in complexed zinc, and more preferably, the amount of available carbonate in the leaching agent is increased by 50% -150% on the basis of the difference obtained by subtracting the amount of carbonate introduced by zinc carbonate in the raw material from the theoretical consumption of carbonate in complexed zinc. The consumption of carbonate in the theory of complex zinc is the consumption of carbonate which is used for completely converting zinc element in raw ore into zinc ammonium carbonate. Thus, the molar concentration of available carbonate in the lixiviant can be calculated as follows:
Clixiviant carbonate radical=(nTotal zinc of raw ore-nRaw mineral zinc carbonate)×a/VLixiviant
Wherein, CLixiviant carbonate radicalIs the molar concentration of available carbonate in the lixiviant, nTotal zinc of raw oreIs the amount of material containing zinc element in the zinc raw ore, nRaw mineral zinc carbonateIs the amount of zinc carbonate in the zinc-containing raw ore, VLixiviantIs the volume of the leaching agent, a is a coefficient, and the value of a is 100 to 600 percent, preferably 150 to 250 percent. The mass concentration of carbonate in the lixiviant can be converted according to the molar concentration.
The optimized effective carbonate concentration of the leaching agent can ensure that zinc in raw ore is completely leached, can realize the circulation of carbonate in the process, and can avoid the pressure of excessive carbonate on the subsequent process treatment.
The weight ratio of the leaching agent to the zinc-containing raw ore powder is not particularly limited as long as the zinc component can be leached. Preferably, the weight ratio of the leaching agent to the zinc-containing raw ore powder is 3:1 to 5:1, so that a satisfactory leaching effect can be obtained, and the waste of the leaching agent is avoided.
The leaching temperature is not particularly limited as long as the zinc component in the raw ore is leached. Preferably leaching is carried out at normal temperature, for example leaching is carried out at 15-30 ℃; the leaching may also be carried out at slightly elevated temperatures (e.g., 30-55 ℃). The temperature can be selected according to actual conditions.
The zinc oxide raw ore and the leaching agent are mixed and stirred, and the stirring time is not particularly limited as long as the zinc component in the raw ore is leached, and is preferably 1 to 4 hours, and more preferably 1 to 2 hours.
During leaching, zinc element in raw ore is converted into zinc ammine complex ions (mainly zinc ammine complex ions at each level) and enters into a liquid phase. And filtering after leaching to obtain a leaching solution containing zinc-ammonia complex ions, wherein the leaching solution can be used for the subsequent decarburization process. The concentration of zinc ammine complex ions in the leachate is not particularly limited, but the concentration of zinc ammine complex ions (based on the mass of zinc element) in the leachate is preferably more than 10g/L, more preferably 10-25 g/L, so that the comprehensive economic benefit of the method disclosed by the invention can be optimized. If the concentration of the zinc ammine complex ions in the original leached liquid is not in the preferred range, optionally concentrating or diluting the leached liquid, and adjusting the concentration of the zinc ammine complex ions in the leachate to be in the preferred range of 10-25 g/L. Optionally, the leachate may be purified by known methods, if necessary.
Step 2 decarburization
In the decarbonization step, calcium hydroxide and/or calcium oxide are added into the leachate containing zinc-ammonia complex ions, and the available carbonate in the leachate is converted into calcium carbonate. If the concentration of the zinc ammine complex ions in the leachate is too high, equilibrium shift of zinc ammine complex ions-zinc hydroxide in the leachate may occur at the same time, and a very small portion of the zinc component may be co-precipitated with calcium carbonate in the form of zinc hydroxide.
In the decarbonising step, the amount of calcium hydroxide and/or calcium oxide added substantially matches the amount of available carbonate in the leach solution, for example, the amount of calcium hydroxide and/or calcium oxide species added in the decarbonising step is 100% to 130%, more preferably 100% to 110% of the amount of available carbonate species in the leach solution. Proper addition of calcium hydroxide and/or calcium oxide is helpful for controlling the process cost and improving the purity and quality of the finished zinc product.
In the decarbonization step, calcium hydroxide and/or calcium oxide are added into the leaching solution, and the mixture is stirred for reaction to generate solid precipitate. The reaction temperature is not particularly limited, and it is particularly preferable to carry out the reaction at room temperature (for example, 15 to 25 ℃), which not only saves energy but also reduces environmental pollution caused by ammonia volatilization. The stirring time is not particularly limited as long as a precipitate is obtained, and stirring is preferably performed for 1 to 2 hours.
And filtering after stirring to obtain a first solid and a first filtrate. The main component of the first solid is calcium carbonate which can be calcined into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide for recycling. The first filtrate continues to be used for the subsequent calcium zincate synthesis.
Step 3 calcium zincate Synthesis
And adding calcium hydroxide and/or calcium oxide into the first filtrate, and stirring for reaction. In the step, calcium zincate is synthesized in a zinc ammonia environment, and the leached zinc component is precipitated and recovered.
The ratio of the amount of the calcium hydroxide and/or calcium oxide to the amount of the zinc ammine complex ion in the first filtrate is preferably 1 to 1.2:2, more preferably 1 to 1.1: 2. The reaction temperature is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, 15 to 90 ℃, preferably 20 to 90 ℃, and more preferably 30 to 60 ℃; or the reaction temperature of 15-25 ℃ is also preferably selected, and the temperature range has the advantages of no need of heating, energy conservation and reduction of ammonia volatilization. Filtering can be carried out after the reaction is carried out for 0.5-2 hours (preferably 0.5-1 hour), and long-time reaction and ageing processes are not needed. Filtering to obtain a second solid and a second filtrate. The main component of the second solid is calcium zincate, and generally, the calcium zincate component can account for more than 95 percent of the total mass of the second solid; the second solid may also contain a small amount of co-precipitated compounds such as lead, iron, manganese, etc., depending on the starting materials, whether or not the purification step is performed, how the purification step is performed, etc. Carbon dioxide may additionally be passed to the second filtrate and then recycled for leaching of zinc containing raw ore.
Step 4 calcination
And drying the second solid, and then calcining at 650-1050 ℃ to decompose the calcium zincate into zinc oxide and calcium oxide.
