Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, due to the low utilization rate of manganese ore pulp, the excess manganese ore pulp enters the oxygen-enriched leaching system, so the leaching rate of manganese increases, which breaks the original balance of manganese ions in the system, and the manganese ions in the system are getting higher and higher. accumulate, thereby affecting the purity of the zinc

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention discloses a method for haydrometallurgy of zinc. According to the invention, during an oxidation process of a leaching solution, a pyrolusite slurry oxidation of prior art is substituted by an oxygen oxidation; oxygen is dissolved in the leaching solution by controlling a pH of the leaching solution; oxygen molecules are decomposed into oxygen atoms and contact with Fe<2+> in the leaching solution, so as to enable Fe<2+> in the leaching solution to converse to Fe<3+> by the oxidation of the oxygen. Therefore, the method for haydrometallurgy of zinc provided by the invention requires no pyrolusite slurry in a zinc smelting process, so as to alleviate problem of manganese ion accumulation in the leaching solution, which occurs in pyrolusite slurry oxidation of prior art, and to facilitate balance of manganese ions. In addition, the oxygen oxidation employed in the invention has a high efficiency, low production costs; thereby zinc smelting costs are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of smelting, in particular to a method for hydrometallurgy of zinc. Background technique [0002] With the continuous expansion of the use of zinc, the consumption of zinc products in various countries in the world is increasing year by year, and the smelting methods of zinc are also being continuously improved. At present, zinc smelting methods are mainly divided into two categories: pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy. Pyro-method zinc smelting includes three main processes: roasting, reduction distillation and refining. The sulfur dioxide produced during the roasting process of zinc concentrate causes flue gas pollution. Therefore, pyro-method zinc smelting is gradually being replaced by hydro-method zinc smelting. [0003] Atmospheric oxygen-enriched direct zinc smelting technology is a full-wet zinc smelting technology. Its main feature is that it eliminates the roasting process of pyrometallurgy, avoid...
