Method for enriching and recovering chromium resource by synergistic utilization of chromium-containing sludge and chromium-containing waste residue
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of resource utilization of chromium in dangerous/solid waste, and particularly relates to a method for synergistically utilizing chromium-containing sludge and chromium-containing waste residues in a steel plant and enriching chromium resources in the sludge and the waste residues.
Background
The discharge amount of chromium-containing hazardous/solid waste in China is huge. According to measurement and calculation, the annual emission can reach about 150 ten thousand tons, and the accumulated stock reaches more than ten million tons. Chromium-containing hazardous/solid waste generally contains high contents of elements such as Fe, Cr, V and the like, and is not only toxic hazardous waste and environmental pollutants, but also an important strategic resource. Therefore, the treatment of 'reduction, harmlessness and reclamation' on the waste water has great environmental, economic and social benefits.
At present, the method mainly adopted for separating and recovering the heavy metal element chromium in the chromium-containing dangerous/solid waste mainly comprises wet metallurgy (acid leaching, alkali leaching, water leaching and salt leaching), fire metallurgy (high-temperature smelting method and roasting-leaching method), biological extraction technology and the like. Chinese patent 'a method for detoxifying and recovering chromium from chromium-containing waste residue' (CN108220604B) proposes a method for resource utilization of chromium in chromium-containing waste residue: oxidizing and roasting the waste residue, separating the solid residue from the chromium-containing solution by means of ultrasonic treatment, hydrothermal reaction and the like, and adding HCl and NaHCO when separating and recovering chromium 3 And Na 2 CO 3 Etc. as surface interface controlling agents to promote the reaction. The method has the disadvantages of complicated process flow, high medicament consumption and new secondary pollution to the environment, and is not widely applied to the industry. Chinese patent 'a method for recovering hexavalent chromium resources from chromium slag' (CN102191390A) leaching with hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid at normal temperatureHexavalent chromium in the chromium slag, but the chromium recovery rate is only about 60-80%, which can not efficiently recover chromium resources, and the generated large amount of acid liquor also brings serious hidden troubles to the environment. Most of the traditional methods for recovering chromium from chromium-containing resources have the problems of high cost, complex process flow, complex operation, easy generation of secondary pollutants and the like, and have larger improvement space in the process. In view of the above disadvantages, methods for recovering chromium from chromium-containing sludge and chromium-containing slag have been proposed in recent years mainly as follows: reduction precipitation, ion exchange, extraction separation, etc., but these methods all have the following disadvantages: the reduction precipitation method has large acid consumption, and the obtained product has low purity, so the method is not a more suitable method from the aspects of environment and cost; the ion exchange method has longer process period and is not suitable for large-scale production; the extraction separation method has good separation effect only on certain specific ions, but the effect is greatly influenced by impurity ions. These factors limit the industrial application of these methods to some extent.
In conclusion, for the enrichment, separation and recovery of chromium in the chromium-containing hazardous/solid waste, no feasible method exists at present from the viewpoints of economy, environmental protection and process flow simplification, and the efficient and green recycling of the chromium-containing hazardous/solid waste is still a problem to be solved urgently. The invention provides a method for enriching chromium by combining chromium-containing sludge and chromium-containing waste residue. Because chromium in the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residue is difficult to enrich through a conventional physical beneficiation method, the invention provides a high-temperature chemical method, which realizes the pre-enrichment of chromium in the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residue, reduces the dispersion degree of chromium, and obtains a chromium-enriched phase which has high chromium content and is suitable for subsequent separation.

As shown in a principle process flow chart of the method for enriching and recovering chromium resources by utilizing the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residues synergistically, the method for enriching and recovering chromium resources by utilizing the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residues synergistically is implemented by the following steps:
1) raw material treatment: after the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residue are ball-milled and crushed, the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residue are mixed according to a certain proportion to prepare alkalinity ((CaO% + MgO%)/(SiO) 2 %+Al 2 O 3 %) in the range of 0.6 to 1.5, FeO x The content is more than or equal to 15.0 percent. It is noted that in order to provide a reducing firing atmosphere, an appropriate amount of carbon powder is added to the mix to act as a reducing agent. In addition, in order to charge the chromium-containing sludge and Cr in the chromium-containing slagSeparate enrichment and recovery are still needed to supplement a little excessive Fe into the mixture 2 O 3 The powder acts as an enrichment carrier for chromium. In addition, Fe 2 O 3 The adding amount of the powder and the carbon powder is determined according to the chromium content in the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residue.
2) Reduction roasting: preparing the obtained mixture into pellets, controlling the diameter of a pellet sample to be 4-8 mm, drying the sample, and then placing the sample under a reductive roasting condition for reductive roasting, so that chromium in the chromium-containing sludge and chromium-containing waste residues is enriched to a chromium-containing enriched phase, namely ferrochrome spinel Fe through a chemical reaction 3-x Cr x O 4 Phase (c); the calcination temperature was selected to be 1373K and 1473K, the calcination time was selected to be 3 hours, and an appropriate amount of argon gas was blown in to exhaust the air in the furnace, so that the reduction reaction was sufficiently performed. And after the roasting reaction is finished, cooling the sample at the speed of 5-10K/min. In the process, the chromium in the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residue can enter a pre-designed chromium-containing enrichment phase.
The chromium-containing enriched phase obtained by roasting does not contain impurity elements such as P, Na, S and the like, so that the chromium is beneficial to leaching and extracting in subsequent processes or separating and sorting by adopting other processes.
3) Magnetic separation and recovery: crushing and grinding the roasted product obtained in the step 2), controlling the grinding granularity to be-0.074 mm and the grain fraction content to be more than or equal to 80.0%, and separating the iron-chromium spinel from the ground product by adopting a strong magnetic separation process to obtain Cr 2 O 3 The content is more than or equal to 20.0 percent and the Cr content 2 O 3 The recovery rate is more than or equal to 85.0 percent. The magnetic separation process adopts a vertical ring electromagnetic pulse high-gradient magnetic separator for separation, and the magnetic induction intensity is between 0.4 and 1.0 Tesla.
The invention also adopts a spiral chute to reselect the product after ore grinding, thereby obtaining Cr 2 O 3 21.5% of Cr 2 O 3 The recovery rate of the chromium concentrate is 86.0 percent, and the product after ore grinding is reselected by a Nielson (Knelson) concentrator to obtain Cr 2 O 3 22.3% of Cr 2 O 3 The recovery rate of chromium concentrate is 86.5 percent; the product after ore grinding is processed by adopting a spiral chute-NiThe combined reselection of the Knelson concentrator obtains Cr 2 O 3 Content of 24.8% Cr 2 O 3 The recovery rate of the chromium concentrate is 86.2 percent, and unexpected technical effects are achieved.
In order to verify the feasibility of the scheme provided in the method of the present invention, it is necessary to identify whether the calcined ore has a hercynite phase, XRD analysis is performed on the samples obtained at the calcination temperatures of 1373K and 1473K, respectively, and the comparison result is shown in fig. 3. By comparing XRD results of samples at different roasting temperatures, it can be found that: the ferro-chromium spinel phase is generated in the roasted minerals; furthermore, comparing the samples at 1373K and 1473K roasting temperatures, it can be seen that the content of hercynite phase generated in the roasted minerals gradually increases with the increase of the roasting temperature. FIG. 4 is a scanning electron microscope analysis result chart of a sample after baking under reducing baking atmosphere of 1473K, and the results in FIG. 4 show that: in the roasted sample, the enrichment behaviors of Fe and Cr are consistent, and the impurity elements such as P, S and the like are not contained. The combination of the above results can find that: under the reducing roasting atmosphere, FeO is utilized x As an enrichment carrier, the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing waste residue are combined, so that abundant Cr resources in the chromium-containing sludge can be enriched into a ferrochrome spinel phase. The enriched phase has high enrichment efficiency and does not contain P, S harmful impurity elements. This shows that the method provided by the patent can indeed achieve better combined enrichment effect on chromium in the chromium-containing sludge and the chromium-containing steel slag.
In addition, the low-chromium tailings discharged by the magnetic separation process can be added with ingredients such as fly ash and the like to prepare building material products such as maintenance bricks and the like, and can also be used for preparing other building materials such as ceramsite and the like, so that no solid waste is discharged.
