Rotary kiln roasting mercury smelting system using lead-zinc smelting acid mud as raw material
Technical Field
The invention provides a system for roasting and refining mercury by using a rotary kiln, in particular relates to a system for roasting and refining mercury by using acid sludge generated in a lead-zinc smelting process as a raw material, and belongs to the technical field of mineral smelting.
Background
The mercury smelting comprises a fire method and a wet method. In the pyrogenic process for refining mercury, mercury ore or concentrate is roasted at a low temperature (450-800 ℃), mercury is directly reduced to be in a gas state and separated out, and then the mercury is condensed to be in a liquid state. The fire method for refining mercury is simple in working procedure and high in technical and economic indexes, and is a traditional mercury refining method at home and abroad. The common roasting equipment comprises a rotary kiln, a multi-hearth furnace, a liquid roasting furnace, a mechanical distillation furnace and the like. The wet mercury smelting is to leach mercury concentrate with sodium sulfide or hypochlorite solution, and obtain metal mercury through electrolysis or replacement after the leaching solution is purified. The wet method can reduce the pollution of mercury, but the flow is complex, and the technical and economic indexes are not as good as those of the fire method, so the wet method is not widely applied. An electrooxidation method for extracting mercury from cinnabar ore is also researched in the United states, and the recovery rate of mercury is 90-99 percent, but no production report is found. Mercury metal extracted from mined ore, known as primary mercury, is typically greater than 99.9% pure and has a clean and bright appearance that finds many uses in industry. The mercury has wide application, and in the total dosage, the metal mercury accounts for 30 percent, and the mercury in a compound state accounts for about 70 percent. The metal industry commonly uses the amalgam process (mercury dissolves other metals to form an amalgam) to extract metals such as gold, silver, and thallium. The mercury is used as cathode in chemical industry to electrolyze salt solution to prepare caustic soda and chlorine. The mercury is prepared by making mercury arc rectifier, mercury vacuum pump, mixing with alcohol and concentrated nitric acid solution, and heating. Some compounds of mercury have the effects of disinfection, diuresis and analgesia in medicine, and mercury-silver alloy is a good dental material. In traditional Chinese medicine, mercury is used as a raw material of a medicine for treating malignant boil and scabies. Mercury is used as a coolant for precision casting molds and atomic reactors, as a component of cadmium-based bearing alloys, and the like. In addition, mercury has wider application in military industry.
At present, equipment such as a tunnel kiln, a blast furnace, a liquid state roasting furnace and the like are mostly adopted in the mercury refining industry in China, the equipment adopts semi-closed type for mercury refining, the temperature of the furnace is controlled roughly, batch feeding and batch slag discharging are carried out, and the difference of mercury content of slag after mercury extraction is large due to different heating points of the slag. The mercury refining equipment has the advantages that the direct mercury yield is 83-87%, and the recovery rate is 89-93%, and further improvement is needed.
The Chinese invention patent CN 104880059A discloses a phi 2000 x 18 m energy-saving environment-friendly mercury smelting electromagnetic induction roasting rotary kiln, which aims to adopt a variable frequency power supply to inductively heat a high-temperature heating area on the surface of a kiln tube in the rotary kiln through an induction heating ring sleeved on an outer tube of the rotary kiln, because the kiln tube rotates at a constant speed, the heating temperature of the kiln tube is very uniform, the heating temperature is generally 450-1000 ℃, the power and the temperature are automatically adjusted, the mercury ore in the rotary kiln is roasted and heated to about 800 ℃, the mercury ore in the rotary kiln is evaporated to generate mercury vapor, and the mercury vapor is collected to mercury metal through a condenser; the yield of the electromagnetic induction rotary kiln can be comparable to that of an electric heating, coal-fired, fuel oil or gas roasting rotary kiln. Solves the problems of low production efficiency, serious environmental pollution, high energy consumption and the like of the mercury-smelting rotary kiln which is roasted by a coal furnace. However, in the mercury refining system, mercury ore is directly roasted to prepare the mercury refining system, and the cost for refining mercury is high. In addition, in the whole roasting process, mercury vapor in the rotary kiln may overflow from the joints at the head and the tail of the rotary kiln, thereby causing environmental pollution.

The invention provides a rotary kiln roasting mercury smelting system taking lead-zinc smelting acid mud as a raw material, which has the following working principle and flow: (1) firstly, opening the spiral feeders of the discharge ports at the bottom of the acid sludge hopper and the lime hopper, adjusting the mass ratio of the lead-zinc smelting acid sludge to the quicklime by adjusting the rotating speed of the spiral feeders, and enabling the two materials to enter from the feed port of the stirring mixer and to be uniformly mixed in the stirring mixer. (2) And the mixed material enters a disc granulator and is granulated by the disc granulator, and dust generated in the rotary kiln smelting process can be reduced through granulation, so that mercury soot generation is reduced, the mercury activating rate is increased, and the direct mercury smelting yield is increased. (3) And opening the rotary kiln, feeding the granulated granular materials into the rotary kiln through a feeding hole in the feeding device and the front sealing cover, simultaneously opening a valve of the pressure swing adsorption oxygen generator, conveying oxygen into the rotary kiln, and controlling the feeding speed and the conveying amount of the oxygen according to the proportion of the materials. The one-way air valve arranged in the air inlet can prevent the gas in the rotary kiln from flowing backwards into the oxygen pipe from the interior of the kiln under the condition of abnormal pressure increase. Bearing swing joint is passed through with the front end of inner bag barrel to preceding closing cap, preceding closing cap can relative rotation with the inner bag barrel under the effect of bearing, preceding closing cap passes through sealing device with the inner bag barrel simultaneously and seals, sealing device can be under the prerequisite that does not influence relative pivoted, seal lubricating grease in the bearing and the gas in the rotary kiln (although be provided with negative pressure air exhaust device in this patent, but because negative pressure air exhaust device sets up at the tail end, consequently, the negative pressure seal nature effect of head end department is not enough, must be with the help of sealing device's sealing), the gas leakage in the leakage of grease and the rotary kiln has been avoided. (4) The rotary kiln adopts electrical heating at two sides and the bottom, the temperature is controlled to be about 650-700 ℃, and the rotary kiln operates in a negative pressure environment, which is about 0.9 standard atmospheric pressure. During the roasting process, selenide reacts with calcium oxide and the like to generate calcium selenite. The mercury escapes in the form of steam and is separated from the selenium after being condensed by a condensing system. The main equations involved in this process are:
HgSe+CaO+O2→Hg+CaSeO3
Hg(s)→Hg(g)
Se+CaO+O2→CaSeO3
MeSe+CaO+O2→MeSeO3(other selenides are oxidized)
(5) Because the rotary kiln is the slope setting, consequently along with the rotation of rotary kiln, the material is transmitted to the afterbody gradually, and enter into kiln hood, the inner bag barrel can rotate for kiln hood, it is sealed through the O type sealing washer between the two (O type sealing washer although sealing performance is general, but owing to be provided with the negative pressure air suction fan here, consequently the gas in the kiln hood can not leak from the junction of kiln hood and inner bag barrel), the material after the calcination discharges through the discharging device who installs in kiln hood bottom, the gas that the calcination produced gets into in the condensing tower through the negative pressure air suction pipe, negative pressure fan and the outlet duct on the top of gas collecting channel.

The mercury soot is mainly composed of fine mercury beads, mine dust, oxides of arsenic and antimony, mercury sulfide, mercury sulfate, hydrocarbon, water and the like, and is a multi-phase system substance. And the condensed tail gas enters a tail gas treatment device for cleaning treatment.
