Extraction of valuable metals such as copper, lead, zinc and nickel from pyrite cinder

F. Fumen other recovery of copper, nickel, cobalt, zinc and other valuable metals from the cinder success. At a temperature of 550 deg.] C, and prebaked on cinder 60min, then after prebaking cinder - pyrite mixture (ratio of pyrite slag 0.25) at a temperature of 550 deg.] C and then calcined 60min, the slurry The depth was 10% and leached with water for about 15 minutes at room temperature. Under these conditions, more than 95% of the copper can be recovered from Ergani primary converter slag and James Bridge secondary slag. More than 98% of the cobalt in James Bridge slag can be extracted. The cobalt, nickel and zinc extracted from the Ergani converter slag were 58%, 35% and 29%, respectively.

Wei Xiangsong introduced several methods for recovering non-ferrous metals in pyrite cinder. High-temperature chlorination roasting method: Calcium chloride is used as a chlorinating agent and uniformly mixed with calcined slag [(4~9):100], spheroidized and dried, calcined at 1100-1300 °C, copper, lead in the slag, Non-ferrous metals such as zinc are volatilized in the form of chlorides, which are recycled to the recovery tower, and the remaining slag, or pellets, is used for iron making. This method has certain requirements for the slag, that is, the content of FeO should be less than 3%, the arsenic should be less than 0.1%, the sulfur should be less than 0.7%, and the lead should be less than 0.2%. In addition, the content of copper and zinc should be certain. Within the scope. Japan Ltd. concentrate light household Tian recovery plant using this method for recovering copper pyrite cinders depositing copper 70%, 50% lead bismuth hydroxide and zinc, gold, silver and other valuable metals. Therefore, high temperature chlorination roasting is also called light and method. China's Henan Kaifeng Iron and Steel Plant uses this method to obtain a copper volatilization rate of 60% to 83%, zinc volatilization rate of 58% to 88%, sulfur volatilization rate of 67% to 98%; medium temperature chlorination roasting method: sulfur iron The ore slag, pyrite, and salt are mixed in a certain proportion in a furnace at 550-650 ° C for roasting and chlorination. The non-ferrous metal oxides and sulfides in the slag form soluble chloride or sulfate, which are cooled and cooled to a dilute acid. After leaching, copper, zinc, cobalt, gold, silver, etc. are separately recovered from the solution, and the residue is about 85% of the slag, and is used as a raw material for sintering. Leaching extraction method: pyrite containing higher cobalt, copper, cobalt, nickel, etc. in the preparation of sulfuric acid slag, mostly in the form of sulfate, soluble in water, leached with acid by air stirring, extraction with fatty acid by leaching solution Different metals are extracted under different conditions, and the remaining filter residue is still used as a raw material for iron making.

Sulfuric acid residues in order to avoid environmental pollution, as a raw material in sulfuric acid residues, by adding the active reducing agent (C6H12O6), with waste sulfuric acid leaching of iron and direct reduced iron yellow, and then to P204 (di-2-ethyl phosphate The main extracting agent is used to extract and recover copper from the immersion liquid, and the whole mud cyanide and zinc powder replacement process is used to extract gold and silver from the leaching residue, and the valuable metal in the slag is recovered and utilized economically and efficiently. The recovery rates of copper and gold reached 93.31%, 80.78% and 90.18%, respectively.

As an important element of life sciences, selenium has attracted more and more attention. A large amount of selenium is recovered from pyrite cinders abroad. During the production of sulfuric acid, the selenium in the pyrite is sublimed into gaseous selenium dioxide in a boiling furnace and dissolved in the washing acid. And the sulfur dioxide in the washing acid is reduced to monomer selenium. Selenium is deposited with the dust in the washing acid in a clarification tank, a collector and an acid cooler to form a slime. Selenium dioxide dissolved in the droplets is also reduced.

Conveying Machine, in a word, is a kind of machine to convey powder, small particles or granule from one point to another point. There are several different type of conveying machine: From conveying ways, we can distinguish horizontal conveying, inclined conveying and vertical conveyor. From the feeding material continuous ways we can distinguish into: even feeding, batch feeding, volumatic feeding. 


For example, conveying machine include:

Flexible Screw Conveyor : Flexible screw conveyor is flexible, allowing a multiple of configurations to suit application  requirements. The standard unit consists of an inlet, an outlet, a flexible spiral spring, a PPR  hose, a motor and a hopper.

Its design is very simple & eliminates the need for any additional operating equipment such as  filters or bearing. It consists of electric motor driven spiral, which is the only moving part,  rotates within a food grade & sealed tube.The material moves along the spiral within the tube. The unique action of the flexible Spiral Conveyor eliminates the risk of the product separation  that can take place in conventional pneumatic conveying systems where mixed materials have  components of different densities and particle size.In fact,the conveying action ensures constant remixing.Conveyor maximum length can be upto 15 meters for material bulk density 0.6 kg/ litre and may be increased or decreased inversely with bulk density.Vertical installation are also possible,but carrying capacity  decreases with increase in angle of inclination. Feed hopper is  available in standard size or according to customers specification.

Vacuum Conveyor: The vacuum conveyor machine can reach the objective that feeding materials with safe and convenient can't cause some dangerous factors for the operators, It mainly consists of vacuum pump(no oil and water),oil and water separator, stainless steel suctiontube, flexible hose, PE filter or SUS316 filter, compressed air cleaning device, pneumatic discharging device, vacuum hopper and automatic level control device. This machine can reach GMP standard and is the ideal feeding to food industry and pharmaceutical industry.

Remarks: we have two kinds of vacuum conveyor machines for electrical vacuum conveyor and Pneumatic Vacuum Conveyor. The working process is almost same, but the electrical vacuum conveyor is replace the vacuum generator for electrical pump. You can choose the vacuum conveyor according to real situation
