Problems solved by technology

In order to meet the technical requirements of deep purification of cobalt, the amount of zinc powder or xanthate is usually 50-300 times the theoretical amount, so the actual output of cobalt slag contains a large amount of other impurities, resulting in greater material consumption and related waste thing
[0003] Canada’s Hodson Bay Mining Company adopts the Caro’s acid oxidation precipitation method, which can oxidize and precipitate cobalt in the zinc solution, but the Caro’s acid synthesized by high concentration hydrogen peroxide and concentrated sulfuric acid at low temperature is unstable, and the synthesis cost is high. Difficult to promote in application

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for purifying electrolysis primary liquid to remove cobalt in the process of purification, electrolysis and smelting of zinc, which comprises the following steps: under the action of ultrasound wave, adding permonosulfuric acid in zinc electrolysis primary liquid; and adjusting the pH value obtained in the step one by using zinc ore concentrate or zinc powder, oxidizing Co(II) in the solution into Co(III) at the temperature of 40-90DEG C and precipitation in the form of Co(OH)3. The invention has simple process and easy operation; by using the permonosulfuric acid as an oxidant, an oxidation potential higher than 2.3V can be provided and the degradation and reaction process can be strengthened; and by using power ultrasound as a synergic means, hydroxyl free groups can be generated in the reaction process, the oxidation potential can be further improved, the hydrolysis and precipitation process of cobalt can be strengthened and the aggregation of precipitation grains grow up. The invention cannot bring other impurities influencing the electrolysis process while efficiently purifying to remove the cobalt.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for purifying and removing cobalt from pre-electrolytic liquid in purifying electrolytic zinc smelting. Background technique [0002] Cobalt is a harmful impurity in zinc hydrometallurgy. At present, factories usually use zinc powder valence antimony salt to remove cobalt or xanthate to remove cobalt from the solution. In order to meet the technical requirements of deep purification of cobalt, the amount of zinc powder or xanthate is usually 50-300 times the theoretical amount, so the actual output of cobalt slag contains a large amount of other impurities, resulting in greater material consumption and related waste things. [0003] Canada’s Hodson Bay Mining Company adopts the Caro’s acid oxidation precipitation method, which can oxidize and precipitate cobalt in the zinc solution, but the Caro’s acid synthesized by high concentration hydrogen peroxide and concentrated sulfuric acid at low temperature is unstable, an...
