The invention provides a method for preparing light
magnesium carbonate by a boric
sludge acidification method. The method comprises the following steps: (1) boric
sludge acidification, namely mixing boric
sludge,
sulfuric acid and water for acidification reaction to obtain an acidified
slurry; (2)
slurry filtration and
impurity removal, namely filtering the obtained acidified
slurry, leaching the precipitated phase with alkali and then acidifying the precipitated phase to obtain amorphous white
carbon black, adjusting the pH of the filtrate and adding
hydrogen peroxide to remove impurities; and (3)
digestion,
carbonization and pyrolytic reaction, namely sequentially performing
digestion reaction and
carbonization reaction on the
magnesium solution subjected to
impurity removal, then filtering, performing
pyrolysis on the filtrate to obtain a semi-finished light
magnesium carbonate product,
drying and crushing to obtain the light magnesium
carbonate product, and
drying the precipitate to obtain
gypsum. According to the method, magnesium is leached with the
sulfuric acid, the magnesium
sulfate filtrate is used for preparing high-purity light magnesium carbonate, and the precipitated phase is used for preparing the amorphous white
carbon black, so that the extraction rate of magnesium is equal to or greater than 95%, the purpose of complete comprehensive recycling is fulfilled, zero
discharge is realized in the whole process and the production cost is reduced.
