Description

Method for separating indium and germanium from zinc oxide smoke dust
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for separating indium and germanium from zinc oxide smoke dust, and belongs to the technical field of hydrometallurgy.
Background
The zinc leaching residue of the wet zinc smelting process is one of the important resources for extracting indium and germanium at present, and the method for recovering germanium from the zinc leaching residue containing indium and germanium mainly comprises wet high-temperature high-acid leaching and pyrogenic reduction volatilization-zinc oxide smoke leaching. At present, the zinc smelting process in China is mainly a traditional conventional process, so that indium and germanium are mainly extracted from zinc oxide smoke dust containing indium and germanium by a wet method.
Zinc oxide fume is an intermediate raw material mainly containing zinc and lead, which is produced after wet zinc smelting and fire lead smelting slag are treated by adopting a fire fuming volatilization method, and is rich in one or more rare metals such as indium, germanium and the like. The current zinc oxide smoke treatment process commonly adopts two-stage acid leaching to obtain lead-rich leaching residues and leaching liquid rich in rare metals, the leaching residues are used for recycling lead and silver, and the leaching liquid is used for separating and recycling the rare metals.
Because of the limitation of rare metal content, technical and economic indexes and other conditions in zinc oxide smoke, only one rare metal in the zinc oxide smoke generally has the economic value of recovery, so that the prior art only carries out single recovery on one rare metal in the zinc oxide smoke, for example, the zinc oxide smoke with higher indium content mainly adopts leaching liquid to neutralize precipitation and enrich indium to obtain indium-rich slag, and then carries out sulfuric acid leaching-extraction-electrodeposition recovery on the indium-rich slag; zinc oxide dust with higher germanium content is mainly prepared by carrying out tannin precipitation and germanium enrichment on leaching liquid to obtain germanium concentrate, and then carrying out hydrochloric acid leaching-chloridizing distillation-hydrolysis on the germanium concentrate to recover germanium.
Along with the improvement of the comprehensive recovery requirement in industry, the recovery of indium and germanium in zinc oxide smoke dust, especially the separation and recovery of indium and germanium in zinc oxide smoke dust containing indium and germanium at the same time are very important, and the technology of single recovery of indium or germanium is difficult to meet the raw material change and smelting requirement of enterprises. Therefore, the development of a method for separating and recycling indium and germanium from indium-germanium-containing zinc oxide dust is of great significance.
