The method for recovering germanium from zinc leaching residues according to the present disclosure comprises the steps of: the method comprises the following steps: acid leaching, namely adding water and zinc leaching residues into an acid leaching tank according to a liquid-solid ratio of 5:1, then adding acid to adjust acidity, carrying out heat preservation reaction for 1-3 h, adding an oxidant after the reaction is finished, heating to 88-92 ℃ after the oxidant is added, carrying out reaction for 3-5 h, separating acid leaching liquid from acid leaching residues through solid-liquid separation equipment after the reaction is finished, transferring the acid leaching liquid to the next process, and transferring the acid leaching residues to an alkali leaching process; step two: transferring the acid leaching solution into a stirring tank, adding gelatin and tartaric acid, adjusting the pH value, carrying out heat preservation reaction for 2-4 h, filtering through a filter, and transferring into an extraction process; step three: after the acid leaching solution is pretreated in the second step, continuous countercurrent extraction is adopted, germanium in the acid leaching solution is extracted into an organic phase, the organic phase is washed, subjected to alkali back extraction and detoxication to obtain an alkali back extraction solution and a poor organic phase, the poor organic phase is returned for recycling, an iron salt is added into the alkali back extraction solution, the pH value is adjusted to be 7-9, the content of germanium is controlled to be less than 3ppm, after germanium precipitation is finished, germanium precipitation slag is separated from the germanium precipitation solution through solid-liquid separation equipment, germanium concentrate is obtained after the germanium precipitation slag is dried, and the germanium dioxide is obtained after the germanium concentrate is subjected to chlorination distillation, hydrolysis and drying; step four: adding water into the acid leaching residue obtained in the first step according to a liquid-solid ratio of 6:1, adding alkali into an alkali leaching tank, adding the alkali to adjust the alkalinity to 180-220 g/L, heating to 75-80 ℃, keeping the temperature, stirring and reacting for 2-4 hours, separating alkali leaching liquid from alkali leaching residues by solid-liquid separation equipment after the reaction is finished, and transferring the alkali leaching liquid to an ion exchange system; step five: after the alkali leaching solution is transferred to an ion exchange system, the ion exchange system performs resin adsorption on the alkali leaching solution, after the resin is saturated by adsorption, the resin is subjected to acidic resolution to obtain a resolution solution, the resin is activated and then recycled, when resolution is completed, ferric salt is added into the desorption solution, then alkali is added to adjust the pH value to be 8-9, reaction is continued for 0.5-2.5 hours, the germanium content is controlled to be less than 3ppm, after germanium precipitation is completed, germanium precipitation slag and the germanium precipitation solution are separated through solid-liquid separation equipment, germanium concentrate is obtained after the germanium precipitation slag is dried, and germanium dioxide is obtained after the germanium concentrate is subjected to chlorination distillation, hydrolysis and drying. Wherein the zinc leaching residue at least contains germanium, copper and iron.
In the first step, the action of adding acid in the acid leaching tank not only adjusts the acidity, but also dissolves germanium in the solid in the acid, and the principle is as follows:
Ge(OH)4+2H2SO4=Ge(SO4)2+4H2O
in the first step, because germanium is easily dissolved in hot acid added with an oxidant, the oxidant is added to improve the solubility of germanium in acid, which is beneficial to improving the leaching rate of germanium.
In the first step, in some embodiments, the acid is sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid, and both the sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid are strong acids, so that under the condition of the oxidizing agent, the solubility of germanium in the strong acid can be increased, and the leaching rate of germanium can be improved.
In step one, in some embodiments, the acid is added at a rate of 1000 to 1500L/h. When the acid adding speed is less than 1000L/h, the time of the whole recovery process is prolonged, and the recovery efficiency is reduced; when the adding speed is more than 1500L/h, the reaction is too violent, and potential safety hazards are caused to operators.
In step one, in some embodiments, the acidity is adjusted to 150 to 160 g/L. When the acidity is less than 150g/L, the solubility of germanium is reduced; when the acidity is more than 160g/L, waste of acid is caused and the workload of subsequent treatment is increased.
In step one, in some embodiments, the reaction temperature is maintained at 60-70 ℃. When the heat preservation temperature is less than 60 ℃, the reaction cannot be accelerated well; when the temperature is higher than 70 ℃, the reaction is too violent, and potential safety hazards are caused to operators.
In step one, in some embodiments, the oxidizing agent is hydrogen peroxide or potassium permanganate. The hydrogen peroxide is light blue viscous liquid, can be mixed and dissolved with water in any proportion, is a strong oxidant, and is a colorless transparent liquid, and the aqueous solution is commonly called hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide has the characteristic of almost no pollution, is called as the cleanest chemical product, can oxidize metal ions in zinc leaching residues, and can not cause new pollution because the product after reaction is water; potassium permanganate is a strong oxidant, is one of the strongest oxidants, is greatly influenced by pH when used as the oxidant, has the strongest oxidizing capability in an acidic solution, and is used as the oxidant to oxidize metal ions in zinc leaching residues under the acidic condition after the acidity of the solution is adjusted.
In step one, in some embodiments, the oxidant is added at a rate of 100 to 120 kg/h. When the adding speed of the oxidant is less than 100kg/h, the concentration of the oxidant in the solution is too low, and the reaction is slow; when the adding speed of the oxidant is more than 120kg/h, the concentration of the oxidant in the solution is too high, the reaction is violent, and potential safety hazards are caused to operators.
In the second step, the gelatin is used for removing iron, so that the influence of iron on extraction is reduced, and the tartaric acid is used as a co-extraction agent, so that the extraction rate is improved.
In step two, in some embodiments, the gelatin and tartaric acid are added in the following proportions: according to the weight ratio, the germanium, the tartaric acid and the gelatin are 1, (4-6) and (0.1-0.3). When the amount of tartaric acid is less than 4 times of that of germanium, the maximum synergistic extraction coefficient cannot be reached, and the synergistic extraction effect is not obvious; when the amount of tartaric acid is 6 times larger than that of germanium, the tartaric acid is excessive, and the resource waste is caused. When the amount of the gelatin is less than 0.1 time of that of the germanium, the content of residual iron is excessive, and the extraction of the germanium is influenced; when the amount of gelatin is more than 0.3 times of that of germanium, the gelatin is excessive, so that resource waste is caused, and the workload of subsequent treatment is increased.
In step two, in some embodiments, the pH is 1.2 to 1.5. When the pH is less than 1.2, the addition of acid is excessive, the burden of subsequent treatment is increased, and the waste of alkali liquor is caused when the pH is increased in the subsequent treatment; when the pH is more than 1.5, the optimum conditions for the reaction are not achieved, and the reaction does not proceed completely.
In step three, in some embodiments, the organic phase is formulated with N235, sec-octanol, and sulfonated kerosene in a volume ratio of 1:2: 6. The organic phase with the proportion ensures that the subsequent processes of water washing, alkali back extraction and detoxification achieve the best effect.
In step three, in some embodiments, the continuous countercurrent extraction is of 5-8 grades, the water washing is of 1-4 grades, the alkali back extraction is of 3-6 grades, and the detoxification is of 2-4 grades. When the continuous countercurrent extraction is less than 5 grades, the solute and the solvent are not thoroughly mixed, and the separation effect is poor; when the continuous countercurrent extraction is more than 8 grades, the time of the whole extraction process is increased, and the working efficiency is reduced. When the water washing is more than 4 grades, the waste of water resources is caused. When the alkali back extraction is less than 3 grades, each extracted component in the organic phase cannot be back extracted to the water phase, and the separated components cannot be fully separated; when the alkali back extraction is more than 6 grades, the period of the whole process is increased, and the recovery efficiency is reduced. When the detoxification is less than grade 2, the organic phase can not be sufficiently detoxified, and the extraction capacity is reduced; when detoxification is more than level 4, investment cost is high, and investment cost of the whole recovery process is increased.
In step three, in some embodiments, the iron salt is ferric chloride. Ferric chloride forms precipitated ferric hydroxide in an alkaline environment, and because of the iron affinity of germanium, the ferric hydroxide adsorbs germanium during precipitation, and the germanium enters the iron slag.
In the third step, the principle of chlorination distillation is as follows:
GeO2+4HCl=GeCl4+2H2O
in step four, in some embodiments, the base added is sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. Sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide are both strong bases, are completely ionized in water, and are easy to calculate the dosage when the pH is adjusted.
In step five, in some embodiments, the iron salt is ferric chloride or ferric sulfate. Ferric trichloride and ferric sulfate are precipitated into ferric hydroxide in an alkaline environment, and the ferric hydroxide is used for secondary germanium precipitation by utilizing the siderophilic characteristic of germanium.
In step five, in some embodiments, the base added is sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. The addition of alkali is also used for adjusting the pH of the solution, and the alkali is completely ionized in water, so that the dosage can be easily calculated when the pH is adjusted.
In step five, in some embodiments, the resin used for adsorption is LSC-800. The LSC-800 resin has strong selectivity, can selectively adsorb germanium, and is not influenced by other impurities.
In step five, in some embodiments, the acid desorption is performed by using dilute sulfuric acid or dilute hydrochloric acid with a concentration ranging from 1 to 2 mol/L. When the concentration is less than 1mol/L, the resolving power is insufficient, and the germanium can not be fully resolved; when the concentration is more than 2mol/L, the waste of resources is caused, and in addition, the alkali dosage is increased when the resin is activated.
In the method for recovering germanium from zinc leaching residues, the recovery rate of germanium can reach 92-95%.
Finally, a test process is given.
