Problems solved by technology

There are many patents on the treatment of wastewater by sulfate biological reduction, but the target of treatment is basically mine wastewater with a low concentration of heavy metal ions. The main target of treatment is only to remove heavy metal ions in wastewater, and does not involve the separation and recovery of heavy metals. Problems (KR2001055997, ZA9904586, US6203700), there is no patented technology directly applied to the treatment of low-grade complex mineral bioleachate at home and abroad

Abstract

The invention relates to a process that sulfureted hydrogen is generated by performing the sulfate reduction to low concentration heavy metal sulphate solution in biological metallurgy through microorganism sulfatereducing bacteria, the selective precipitation of the valuable metallic sulfide is realized through the method of adjusting pH value, the traditional process of separating, concentrating and reutilizing is adopted to extract metal. The process is composed of three separate units: anaerobic acidogenic fermentation, sulfureted hydrogen generated through sulfatereducing bacteria and selective precipitation of the metallic sulfide. The process not only can exert the advantages that the process of the bacteria leaching is simple, the operation is easy, the cost is low and the pollution is low, but also has high recovery ratio of valuable metal, and the post treatment process can be economically and effectively built, in addition, the process also provides novel methods for recycling other low concentration waste water including sulphate.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process for processing low-concentration heavy metal sulfate solutions using a microbiological method of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB), and is particularly suitable for the effective recovery of low-concentration valuable metals in biometallurgical leachate, and can also be applied to acid Mine wastewater, electroplating wastewater, tanning and other chemical environment wastewater treatment processes. Background technique [0002] In recent years, great progress has been made in the basic and applied research of biometallurgy at home and abroad. At present, the research of biometallurgy is mainly on how to realize the bacterial leaching of valuable metal minerals and how to increase the mineral leaching rate, but less attention is paid to the problem of how to deal with the leaching liquid containing low concentration of valuable metal obtained by leaching. For most of the bacterial leaching solution of non-ferrous metal mines...
