Problems solved by technology

With conventional sulfuric acid leaching, indium and zinc are easily leached, but when P204 is used to extract indium, P204 is seriously poisoned and aged, and the organic phase is frequently washed with alkali, so the extraction production is very difficult
Use zinc powder, iron filings, sodium sulfite, etc. to reduce ferric iron. Due to the complex composition, the content of indium is low, and the content of ferric iron is as high as 20g / l. The production cost of indium is high, and the leaching rate of germanium is low, about 20- 30%. Adding sodium chloride or hydrochloric acid for mixed leaching, the leaching rate of germanium does not increase significantly, without using a large amount of reducing agent, tannin or / and extracting germanium, or extracting germanium is also very difficult. Indium and zinc are easy to volatilize and collect dust, and the volatilization rate of germanium is below 10%, and the energy consumption is high and the pollution is large

Abstract

A method for extracting germanium, indium and zinc from high iron, silicon and manganese materials containing germanium, indium and zinc belongs to the technology of hydrometallurgy. Sulfuric acid and fluoride are adopted for acid leaching for two times, leaching rate of germanium can reach 90% above, and secondary acid leaching slag contains germanium equal to and less than 0.005%. The total leaching rate of indium reaches 95% above, and tailings contain indium equal to and less than 0.003%. Germanium concentrate obtained by germanium extraction through an extraction method contains fluorine less than 1%. Low temperature leaching is performed at 70+-10 DEG C, the structure of iron vitriol slag is damaged as little as possible, and the concentration of ferric iron in leaching liquid is reduced. Ammonium iron hexafluoride produced in the leaching process shields the ferric iron, P204 indium extraction, N235 germanium or tannin extraction and tannin extract germanium deposit are improved, and the poisoning phenomenon in ferric iron of P204 and N235 is reduced. Comprehensive recovery utilization rate of germanium, indium and zinc in high iron, silicon and manganese materials is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to hydrometallurgy technology. Background technique [0002] High-iron silicomanganese materials containing germanium, indium, and zinc are residues of materials containing germanium, indium, zinc, and silicon dioxide or lead-zinc oxide ore leached by oxidative acid. Alkaline neutralization and oxidation treatment waste residue of zinc, iron and silicon dioxide wastewater. This kind of material is characterized by complex composition, low content of germanium, indium, and zinc, but high content of iron, with ferric iron accounting for more than 99%. Germanium mainly exists in the form of silicon-wrapped germanium, accounting for 80%, and 20% of which is absorbed by alum slag and calcium germanate. Zinc and indium are mainly in the state of hydrolysis precipitation and adsorption of alum slag. Indium and zinc are easily leached by conventional sulfuric acid leaching, but when P204 is used to extract indium, P204 is seriously poi...
