Description

Purification method of zinc electrolyte
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of zinc hydrometallurgy, in particular to a purification method of zinc electrolyte.
Background
In the zinc hydrometallurgy process, purification is an important process between leaching and electrodeposition, and aims to purify various harmful impurities in a zinc sulfate leaching solution to below a specified standard and enrich valuable metals such as copper, cadmium, cobalt, nickel and the like. At present, the purification methods adopted in the zinc hydrometallurgy industry at home and abroad mainly comprise a zinc powder replacement method and an organic reagent precipitation method. As the impurities of the zinc concentrate on the market are higher and higher, the cost of the zinc powder replacement method is greatly increased, and good cobalt and cadmium removal effect is difficult to obtain. In order to achieve the purpose of deeply removing cobalt and cadmium at low cost, an organic reagent precipitation method is increasingly adopted in the zinc hydrometallurgy industry. Common organic precipitants include xanthate, beta-naphthol, sodium dimethyl dithiocarbamate and the like, wherein the sodium dimethyl dithiocarbamate is rapidly popularized in various domestic zinc smelting enterprises in recent years.
The organic precipitant is used as cobalt remover for purifying zinc sulfate solution, and sodium salt and potassium salt activating agent are also used for preparing organic sodium salt and potassium salt. Usually, sodium and potassium are open-circuited in the jarosite process iron removal process in the leaching process of the zinc hydrometallurgy, but some zinc metallurgy enterprises do not have the jarosite process iron removal process. If sodium ions and potassium ions brought by the purifying agent and the activating agent are not properly opened and accumulated to a certain degree, zinc sulfate in the electrolyte is crystallized and separated out, the electrolysis current efficiency is reduced, the yield and the recovery rate of zinc are seriously influenced, and the electrolysis energy consumption cost is increased.
Therefore, in a zinc hydrometallurgy system without an open circuit of sodium and potassium, it is necessary to avoid the introduction of scavengers and activators into the sodium and potassium. The organic zinc salt is used to replace sodium salt and potassium salt, but the organic zinc salt has low solubility, strong hydrophobicity, high production cost and low efficiency due to foaming and floating in the application of removing cobalt and cadmium.

The present application provides a method for purifying zinc electrolyte, please refer to fig. 1 and fig. 2, which includes:
s101: and (3) transformation: and reacting the purifying agent solution with a zinc sulfate solution to obtain a first reaction slurry.
Specifically, the zinc sulfate solution refers to a zinc sulfate dissolving solution without impurities, and in the zinc hydrometallurgy process, particularly, the cobalt-removed solution of a zinc sulfate leaching solution, that is, a zinc sulfate solution capable of directly performing zinc electrodeposition, is also called a zinc sulfate new solution.

Preferably, the zinc content in the solution is controlled to be 0.01-1.00g/l as the reaction end point, and the zinc concentration in the filtrate of the conversion reaction solution is controlled to be 0.01-1.00g/l as the reaction end point, so that most of zinc reacts to generate the zinc salt purifying agent, and the loss of raw materials is reduced.
S102: first filtration: and filtering the first reaction slurry to obtain the zinc salt purifying agent.
And filtering the first reaction slurry to separate solid from liquid to obtain the zinc salt purifying agent and the sulfate wastewater solution. Specifically, because the first reaction slurry has high density and is viscous, a common filtering mode is difficult to separate, and the filtering mode of the embodiment is filter pressing, so that the separation effect can be improved, the time can be saved, and the filter cake of the zinc salt purifying agent can be obtained.
More specifically, rinsing and purging are carried out after the filter pressing, wherein the rinsing can remove sodium ions or potassium ions in the zinc salt purifying agent as much as possible, so that the sodium ions and potassium ions brought into the zinc electrolytic solution in the subsequent cobalt and cadmium removing step are prevented; purging can control the moisture of the zinc salt scavenger.
Compared with sodium (potassium) salt purificant, the sodium (potassium) ion brought into the system by the purificant is reduced by about 93.7 percent by adopting the zinc salt purificant.
S103: size mixing: and (3) preparing the zinc salt purifying agent into slurry to obtain the zinc salt purifying agent slurry.

The zinc salt purifying agent is prepared on the spot in the purification process, and the sodium or potassium salt purifying agent is added into the new zinc sulfate solution for reaction, so that the obtained first reaction slurry is filtered to obtain the zinc salt purifying agent.
S104: removing cobalt: adding an activating agent and the zinc salt purifying agent slurry into the cobalt-removing pre-solution to react to obtain a second reaction slurry.
Specifically, zinc sulfide ore is roasted, leached and the like to obtain a zinc sulfate leaching solution, and the zinc sulfate leaching solution is subjected to copper removal, cadmium removal and the like to obtain a solution, namely a cobalt removal front solution.
In the cobalt-removing precursor solution, the high ionic strength environment formed by high-concentration ions such as zinc, cadmium and the like reduces the activity of various species in the solution, and a stronger oxidation condition is needed to achieve the same cobalt-precipitating effect by oxidation in a pure system, so that an activating agent with strong oxidation property is needed to be added.
Preferably, the activator is a sodium and potassium free activator, which is a non-sodium or potassium nitrite metal salt, or a metal oxide with strong oxidizing properties. The sodium-and potassium-free activating agent can be one or two of calcium nitrite, barium nitrite and manganese dioxide; more preferably, the sodium and potassium free activator is calcium nitrite.
The activating agent used in conventional decontamination processes is typically sodium nitrite, which is a 100% reduction in sodium ions brought into the system by the activating agent as compared to sodium nitrite.
Preferably, the amount of the sodium and potassium-free activator added is 0.5 to 1.2 times the sum of the cobalt and iron mass in the cobalt-removing precursor solution, and may be, for example, (0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1 or 1.2) times. More preferably, the activating agent without sodium and potassium is added into the cobalt-removing pre-solution and then stirred for 5-15min, so as to uniformly mix the activating agent and then the purifying agent is added.
Preferably, the mass of zinc in the zinc salt scavenger slurry obtained in step S103 added to the cobalt removal pre-solution is 1.5 to 2.5 times, for example, (1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5) times the sum of the mass of cobalt and cadmium in the cobalt removal pre-solution.
Adding zinc salt purifying agent slurry into the cobalt-removing precursor solution, and stirring at constant temperature of 70-90 ℃ for reaction for 1.0-2.0h. Specifically, the reaction temperature for removing cobalt and cadmium may be, for example, (70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, or 90) ° c. The reaction time may be, for example, (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 or 2.0) h.
Controlling the cobalt content in the reaction solution to be less than or equal to 0.001g/l as a reaction end point, and basically removing the cobalt to obtain a second reaction slurry, namely the cobalt-removing slurry.
The zinc salt purifying agent can react with heavy metal in the cobalt-removing precursor solution to generate insoluble substances, and can almost capture Cu 2+ 、Cd 2+ 、Pb 2+ 、Co 2+ 、Co 3+ The heavy metals are equal, the precipitation is faster, and the subsequent solid-liquid separation is facilitated.
S105: and (3) second filtration: and filtering the second reaction slurry to obtain cobalt precipitate and cobalt-removed liquid.
And filtering the second reaction slurry to perform solid-liquid separation to obtain cobalt precipitate and cobalt-removed liquid. Because the second reaction slurry has high density and is viscous, and the common filtering method is not easy to separate, the embodiment of the invention adopts a filter pressing mode to separate to obtain cobalt precipitate. The filter pressing can also comprise rinsing and blowing the cobalt precipitate. The solution after cobalt removal meets the requirements that the cobalt content is less than or equal to 0.001g/l, the cadmium content is less than or equal to 0.001g/l, and the content of other metal ions meets the zinc electrodeposition requirement.
Compared with the traditional zinc powder and antimony salt method, the method has the advantages that the deep cobalt removal effect is more excellent, the steam consumption is low, the using amount of the purifying agent is small, the utilization rate is high, the cost is low, the amount of the generated cobalt slag is small, the cobalt content is high, and the follow-up resource utilization is facilitated.
And finally, carrying out concentrated evaporation, concentration, crystallization, centrifugation and packaging on the sulfate wastewater to recover, so that the resources can be recycled. For example, sodium sulfate waste water can be recovered to obtain anhydrous sodium sulfate, which is also called sodium sulfate, inorganic compound, also called thenardite, white, odorless, bitter crystal or powder, and has hygroscopicity. The appearance is colorless, transparent, large crystals or granular small crystals. It is mainly used for making water glass, enamel, paper pulp, refrigerating mixture, detergent, drying agent, dye diluent, analytical chemical reagent, medicinal products, etc.
If sodium and potassium ions enter the zinc electrolyte, the aqueous solution needs to be recycled after electrolysis, the sodium and potassium ions are always accumulated in the aqueous solution, and when the concentration of the sodium and potassium ions in the zinc electrolyte reaches dozens of grams per liter, the sodium and potassium ions are crystallized and are mixed with zinc ions which are not electrolyzed, so that the zinc ion loss is caused.
Compared with the emerging sodium (potassium) dimethyldithiocarbamate and sodium (potassium) nitrite method, the method has the advantages of completely same effect, wider adaptability, reduction of the carrying amount of potassium and sodium, easy replacement of other purification methods in a zinc hydrometallurgy system without sodium and potassium open circuits, no change of process flow, less equipment investment, low energy consumption, easy operation and low production cost.
