Problems solved by technology

[0010] The deficiencies in the above-mentioned documents are that some of them use substances that are easy to pollute the environment, some need to be carried out under high temperature and high pressure conditions, some have complicated operation processes, and the cost is too high. The slag or tailings cannot be recycled, so the minerals with low germanium content are restricted to a certain extent

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for comprehensively recovering iron and germanium from zinc calcine containing high iron and high indium. The method comprises the following steps of: leaching the zinc calcine containing the indium, the germanium and zinc by using a sulfuric acid, sending a solution to electrolyze the zinc, leaching a leaching residue by using a low acid, merging with a high-lead residue together to leach by using a high-temperature high acid, adding a hydroximic acid and P204 kerosene to synergistically extract the indium and the germanium to respectively acquire an indium ingot and a germanium concentrate, and recycling extracting liquid after the iron is recovered. By using the method, the germanium and the indium can be extracted from slag with a lower grade; a procedure is simple; the operation is easy; and fewer pollutants are discharged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nonferrous metallurgy, and in particular relates to a method for comprehensively recovering iron and germanium from zinc calcine containing high iron and high indium. Background technique [0002] Germanium, element symbol: Ge, is a raw material for the semiconductor industry that is widely used in modern science. Although the content of germanium in the earth's crust is more than that of arsenic, uranium, mercury, iodine, silver, gold and other elements, it is very scattered, so , known as "scattered metals", China is the main producer of germanium. China's germanium reserves account for 41% of the world's total, but its production accounts for about 67%. Therefore, China is the main supplier of indium and germanium in the world. Indium is mainly associated with lead-zinc mines. In China, it is mainly distributed in Yunnan (40%), Guangxi (31%), Qinghai (8%), Inner Mongolia (8%), and Guangdong (7%). [...
