Method for preparing iron concentrate powder by reducing and magnetizing red mud in fluidized bed

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing iron concentrate powder by reducing and magnetizing red mud in a fluidized bed. The method comprises the following steps of: magnetizing, reducing and baking dried and pre-heated red mud powder by an efficient circulating fluidized bed technology; burning exhaust gas in a combustion chamber, wherein the exhaust gas is generated after reducing and baking, a part of burned exhaust gas pre-heats the red mud powder through a multistage cyclone preheater, and the other part of burned exhaust gas is mixed with gas of a gas generating furnace; after adjusting the components of the gas, allowing the mixed gas to get into a circulating fluidized bed, wherein the mixed gas entering the fluidized bed reduces over 90 percent of Fe2O3 in the red mud into Fe3O4; after the reduced and magnetized red mud departs the fluidized bed, cooling the reduced and magnetized red mud in a cooler, wherein a cooling medium is the gas generated in the gas generating furnace; and after cooling the reduced red mud, performing magnetic separation on the red mud to obtain iron concentrate of which the grade is 61 to 65 percent. The iron concentrate is prepared from Bayer process red mud, the recovery rate of ferrum is more than 90 percent, the energy consumption in a baking process is reduced, and the environment is also protected.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a technical method of using a circulating fluidized bed as the main equipment, using red mud as the main raw material, performing magnetic separation on the reduction product by controlling a suitable reduction temperature and reduction atmosphere, and then preparing iron fine powder. The technological process belongs to the field of material preparation of chemical industry and metallurgy. Background technique

[0002] Red mud is an insoluble residue. From the production process, it can be divided into sintering method, Bayer method and combined method. Usually the main component of red mud is Fe 2 o 3 , SiO 2 , A1 2 o 3 And CaO etc. The main components of the red mud discharged by the sintering method and the combined method are roughly the same, which contains a large amount of 2CaO·SiO 2 and other active mineral components, which can be directly applied to the production of building materials; the red mud produced by ...
