Problems solved by technology

[0003] The first method is pyrometallurgy to produce cathode copper and by-product copper sulfate, generally including roasting, smelting, blowing, refining and other processes, suitable for the application of copper concentrate with a grade of 20-30%, and this method has a large one-time investment , long process flow, high technical requirements, high energy consumption and waste gas pollution in the pyrolysis process, and with the large-scale mining of copper mines, there are fewer and fewer rich ores, which can meet the requirements of high-grade pyrometallurgy. The source of ore is less and less, which hinders the development of pyrometallurgy
[0004] The second method is hydrometallurgy to produce cathode copper, mainly including copper concentrate sulfate roasting-atmospheric acid leaching-clean liquid-electrowinning process, roasting-ammonia leaching-extraction-electrowinning process, catalytic pre-oxidation leaching-extraction -Electrowinning processes, etc. are generally suitable for lower-grade copper concentrates, and these processes have a low recovery rate of copper, generally about 90%, and the highest is 94%. The productivity and metal recovery rate are low, resulting in relatively high production costs. high
Among them, scientific researchers have done a lot of experimental research work, and have continuously improved the copper leaching process and purification process, but there are still some problems: 1. Whether it is pre-roasting leaching method or direct leaching method, dilute sulfuric acid is basically used Leaching, the acidity and impurity content of the leaching solution are high, and it is difficult to obtain qualified products by direct crystallization. If the neutralizati

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for directly preparing bluestone and cathode copper from copper concentrate. The method orderly comprises the following technological steps: sulphating roasting, water immersion, filtration, acid dipping, filtration washing, extraction, back extraction, electrodeposition and the circular utilization of local working procedures; and when products of bluestone and electrolytic copper with high purity are obtained, side products such as sulphuric acid, iron oxide red and waste residues are simultaneously generated. The method of the invention has the characteristics of low production cost, strong material adaptability, high working efficiency, low investment, simple operation, high utilization rate of copper, diversified products and easy industrialized production, etc., so that the method is suitable to exploit and apply low-grade copper ores.

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for directly producing copper sulfate and cathode copper from copper concentrate, which is suitable for mining low-grade copper ore. 2. Background technology [0002] There are three main ways to produce copper products using copper concentrate as raw material: [0003] The first method is pyrometallurgy to produce cathode copper and by-product copper sulfate, generally including roasting, smelting, blowing, refining and other processes, suitable for the application of copper concentrate with a grade of 20-30%, and this method has a large one-time investment , long process flow, high technical requirements, high energy consumption and waste gas pollution in the pyrolysis process, and with the large-scale mining of copper mines, there are fewer and fewer rich ores, which can meet the requirements of high-grade pyrometallurgy. There are fewer and fewer ore sources, which hinders the development of pyrometallurgy. ...
