Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of non-ferrous metal smelting, and particularly relates to a method for removing impurities from crude tin discharged by reduction smelting of tin concentrate or other tin-containing materials.
Background
The crude tin produced by reduction smelting of tin concentrates or other tin-containing materials contains many impurities, and even the tin refined from tin-rich concentrates generally does not meet the requirements of users. The common impurities in the crude tin include iron, arsenic, antimony, copper, lead, bismuth, sulfur and the like, which have great influence on the properties of tin, and in order to meet the quality requirement of the refined tin of a standard grade, the refining of tin is required, and in most cases, the comprehensive utilization rate of raw materials can be improved and the pollution to the environment can be reduced during the refining.
The fluctuation range of crude tin components produced by various smelting plants is large, and the fluctuation range mainly depends on the components of tin concentrate, the concentrate smelting pretreatment operation, the treatment process flow and the like. The crude tin refining comprises two methods of pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy (electrolysis), and the current crude tin refining method which is the mainstream in the world is pyrometallurgy. The advantages of pyrometallurgical processes are high productivity and no long-term stagnation of the metal in the production process, and a low amount of accumulated tin.
The raw tin of each tin refining plant contains different impurities, different production scales and different raw material supply and equipment conditions, so that the fire refining process is different. For crude tin produced by smelting high-grade concentrate with less impurities, such as Indonesia, Thailand and the like, refined tin can be obtained only by 1-2 fire refining operations, and the refining recovery rate (Thailand) reaches 99.45%. The fire refining process for treating crude tin with high impurity content is relatively long, for example, the Yunnan tin industry company in the old city of China adopts the fire refining principle process shown in figure 2 because the produced crude tin has high impurity content, wherein one or two impurities are removed in each operation, and some impurities are gradually removed in several operations. For example, arsenic is removed in three operations (centrifugal iron and arsenic removal, condensation iron and arsenic removal, and aluminum addition for arsenic and antimony removal).
The existing fire refining method of tin has poor operation environment, great environmental pollution and great labor intensity of workers in the lead and bismuth removing procedures of a continuous crystallizer, and can produce a great amount of refining slag rich in tin, thereby reducing the economic benefit of enterprises.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for removing impurities from hot crude tin in vacuum at low energy consumption, and solves the problems of poor production environment, large environmental pollution, high labor intensity of workers and the like in the conventional fire refining method for treating crude tin containing high impurities.
The technical scheme adopted by the invention is as follows:
a method for removing impurities from hot crude tin in vacuum with low energy consumption comprises the following steps:
s1: putting the crude tin produced by the tin reduction smelting furnace into a tin receiving pot, and covering a vacuum cover on the tin receiving pot;
s2: cooling the vacuum cover by introducing water, simultaneously starting a vacuum pump, vacuumizing the vacuum cover to be below 100Pa, keeping for 0.5-2 h, performing vacuum distillation on the thermal crude tin by utilizing the waste heat of the crude tin produced by the reduction smelting furnace, and volatilizing As, Bi, Pb and Sb successively;
s3: closing the vacuum pump, releasing the pressure to normal pressure, and closing the cooling water;
s4: removing the vacuum hood from the tin receiving pot;
s5: and (3) taking off the volatile matters containing As, Bi, Pb and Sb condensed on the vacuum cover, and leaving the material in the tin receiving pot to be the miscellaneous hot crude tin.
In the step S2, when the residual heat of the crude tin produced by the reduction smelting furnace is used for vacuum distillation, if the residual heat of the crude tin is insufficient, the tin pan can be heated for auxiliary heating.
Further, the impurities of the thermal state crude tin are removed by vacuum distillation, and the removed impurities are at least As, Bi, Pb and Sb.
Further, the volatile matter containing As, Bi, Pb and Sb is high impurity lead bullion.
The invention adopts vacuum distillation to remove impurities from the crude tin produced by the reduction smelting furnace, fully utilizes the waste heat of the crude tin produced by the reduction smelting (the crude tin produced by the reduction smelting of the crude tin is usually at the temperature of 900-1100 ℃) to carry out vacuum distillation, and separates impurities such As As, Bi, Pb, Sb and the like from the tin.
The invention adopts a vacuum distillation method, reduces the system pressure, and can volatilize the vapor pressure of lead, bismuth, arsenic and antimony which is higher than the system pressure at a temperature which is much lower than the boiling point of tin. As shown in table 1:
TABLE 1 vapor pressure of Sn, Pb, Bi, Sb and As as a function of temperature (K)
The temperatures used in the above table are thermodynamic temperatures, as a function of the temperature t in degrees Celsius: t (k) ═ 273.15+ t (° c).
The method effectively utilizes the waste heat of the crude tin produced by reduction smelting, realizes the separation of impurities such As As, Bi, Pb, Sb and the like from the tin, and has low energy consumption in the impurity removal process, high efficiency and environmental protection. After the crude tin is subjected to vacuum treatment, the impurity content is greatly reduced, the pressure of a subsequent refining system is reduced, the produced refining slag is greatly reduced, volatile matters can be directly sold, and the refining return investment is reduced.
The method is simple, easy to operate, green and environment-friendly, provides an effective way for impurity removal treatment of crude tin, and has wide application prospect.
