Description

Method for regulating slag type of pyrometallurgical copper smelting
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of metallurgy, in particular to a method for regulating and controlling a slag type of pyrometallurgical copper smelting.
Background
In the modern copper smelting industry, the pyrometallurgical copper smelting accounts for more than 90% of the copper yield, and the pyrometallurgical process mainly adopts a smelting-converting two-stage process for copper smelting. Based on the high-iron characteristic of copper smelting raw materials, in the blowing process of copper matte, because the oxygen affinity of metal iron is stronger than that of copper, iron in the raw materials is preferentially oxidized, and oxygen-enriched air is continuously blown in the blowing process to ensure that part of iron is oxidized to generate Fe3O4。Fe3O4Resulting in increased viscosity of the blown slag and difficulty in slag removal. At the same time, blowing slag may foam, deteriorating slag-copper separation conditions, increasing mechanical entrainment losses of copper in the blowing slag. Production data show that the copper content of the blowing slag is between 4 and 18 percent, and Fe3O4The content is between 25 and 50 percent.
At present, smelting enterprises mostly adopt a mineral separation method or a method of adding a flux/a reducing agent to solve the problem of difficult slag discharge. There are studies showing that: copper in the blowing slag is present in a metallic state up to 75 percent, the effect of recovering the copper in the blowing slag by using a beneficiation method is not very ideal, and the loss of the copper is relatively large. The method of increasing the flux dosage and adding the reducing agent leads to the increase of the blowing slag quantity and the increase of the loss of the absolute quantity of copper, and simultaneously, the energy consumption is increased and the production cost is increased due to the fact that a large amount of flux heats and absorbs heat. Therefore, the beneficiation method or the flux/reducing agent adding method does not well solve the problem of difficult slag discharge of the converting slag.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
the invention provides a method for regulating and controlling a slag form of pyrometallurgical copper smelting, which comprises the following steps of:
after adding a flux into copper matte, blowing oxygen-enriched air, and then carrying out heat preservation to obtain blowing slag and blister copper;
the volume of oxygen in the blowing oxygen-enriched air is larger than the volume of oxygen required by the complete oxidation of the copper matte.
Preferably, the volume of oxygen in the blown oxygen-enriched air conforms to formula 1:
V1=aV2formula 1;

Preferably, in the processes of blowing the oxygen-enriched air and preserving heat, the temperature of the melt is 1160-1300 ℃ independently.
Preferably, the flux comprises one or more of limestone, lime and quartz stone,
preferably, the converting slag contains CuFeO2(ii) a CuFeO in the blown slag2The mass content of (A) is 8-25%.
Preferably, the pyrometallurgical copper smelting slag type regulation and control method is carried out in a copper converter; and oxygen-enriched air in the blown oxygen-enriched air is blown through the tuyere of the copper converter.
The invention provides a slag type regulation and control method for pyrometallurgical copper smelting, which comprises the following steps: after adding a flux into copper matte, blowing oxygen-enriched air, and then carrying out heat preservation to obtain blowing slag and blister copper; the volume of oxygen in the blowing oxygen-enriched air is larger than the volume of oxygen required by the complete oxidation of the copper matte. The volume of oxygen in the oxygen-enriched air is controlled to be larger than that of oxygen required by the complete oxidation of the copper matte by blowing, and the excessive oxygen oxidizes a small part of metal copper into Cu2O,Cu2O and Fe in blown slag3O4And O2Continuously carrying out oxidation reaction to generate CuFeO2So that Fe is contained in the blown slag3O4The content is obviously reduced, the viscosity is reduced, the slag-copper separation is promoted, and the mechanical entrainment loss of copper in the blowing slag is reduced. Meanwhile, CuFeO2Can be recycled in the subsequent copper slag magnetic separation process. The blowing method provided by the invention can improve the fluidity of the blowing slag, improve the slag discharging efficiency of the blowing slag, solve the problems of difficult slag discharging and large copper loss in slag during the blowing period of the converter in the copper smelting industry, and has the advantages of simple operation, strong practicability and good economic benefit.
