The application discloses a
zinc extraction process from secondary
zinc oxide, and belongs to the technical field of
zinc oxide preparation. In the
rotary kiln roasting, composite porous flaky reducing carbon with
waste paper, rice
husk and wooden chips as main raw materials is used as a
reducing agent. Compared with the commercially available
anthracite, the composite porous flaky reducing carbon has low cost, realizes resource recycling, and has a large specific surface area and porous properties. A multi-
level structure of flaky
layers and pores is constructed, so that the contact sites of the composite porous flaky reducing carbon and the secondary zinc
oxide are increased. The porous structure can avoid the
caking of the material layer caused by the stacking and agglomeration of the flaky
layers, and avoid the obstruction of gas flow, so that the pain points of the traditional
reducing agent, such as local agglomeration and insufficient contact, are solved. The surface of the composite porous flaky reducing carbon is deposited with
calcium oxide. The presence of the
calcium oxide can react with a small amount of
sulfur elements generated in the
rotary kiln roasting process of the composite porous flaky reducing carbon, so as to generate
calcium sulfate and reduce the content of
sulfur dioxide.
