The invention discloses a novel process for producing
manganese sulfate by combination of a pyrogenic process and a wet process. The novel process comprises the steps: (1),
roasting with
anthracite culm to obtain roasted
manganese powder; (2), mixing the roasted
manganese powder with a secondary solution and / or water for pulping, adding
sulfuric acid, adding iron
pyrite, performing a
thermal reaction, filtering to obtain primary
slag and a primary liquid; (3), pulping the primary
slag by using water and / or third solution, adding
sulfuric acid, adding iron
pyrite, performing a
thermal reaction, filtering to obtain secondary
slag and a secondary liquid, rinsing and filtering the secondary slag to obtain third slag and a third liquid, discharging the third slag; and (4), removing iron from the primary liquid, removing
heavy metals, standing, heating and concentrating and crystallizing,
dewatering and
drying to obtain the manganese
sulfate. The novel process has the beneficial effects that (1), the content of full manganese in the manganese slag reaches below 4 percent, the content of tetravalent manganese slag reaches below 0.6 percent, the
metal recovery rate reaches above 82 percent, and the mine consumption cost is low; and (2), the main content of a manganese
sulfate product reaches above 98.5 percent, the content of a
water insoluble is within 0.02 percent, the content of impurities is within 0.3 percent, and the content of heavy
metal elements is within 6 ppm.
