The invention relates to a method for
processing zinc oxide ore or
zinc oxide secondary resource to prepare superfine active
zinc oxide. The method comprises the following steps:
ammonium leaching: using zinc oxide ore containing 2-60% of zinc or complex zinc oxide secondary resource as
raw material, extracting in an
ammonium system coordinately, filtering to remove the residue, wherein the filtrate is applied to the next process; replacement and purification: replacing and purifying the extracted filtrate with zinc
powder to eliminate impure elements, and then filtering and removing the residue, wherein the filtrate is applied to the next process; pulverization and
drying: decomposing the purified filtrate through high-temperature pulverization to prepare
powder A, condensing, spraying and absorbing the
tail gas which is then returned to the leaching process to prepare the extracting agent; and toasting: toasting the
powder A to obtain superfine active zinc oxide. The purified liquidcan be used for directly preparing even powder through efficient pulverization and
drying. The technological process of the method has a
circular loop so that a small amount of
waste gas and waste water is discharged. The method has a rational
tail gas
heat exchanger.
Ammonia gas is recycled in a condensing manner to prepare the leaching liquid. The rest of the
ammonia gas is absorbed through spraying, thereby reducing the
discharge pressure of three wastes, namely,
waste gas, waste water and industrial residue.
