Abstract

The invention relates to a method for extracting chromium by electrochemically decomposing chromite in a potassium hydroxide solution. The method comprises the steps as follows: filling oxidizing gas into mixed slurry containing chromite, potassium hydroxide and water; carrying out electrochemical oxidization reaction; and after the reaction, carrying out solid-liquid separation on the mixed slurry to obtain tailings and a chromium alkali solution. The method is low in cost, high in extraction efficiency, pollution-free and moderate in process conditions, and the chromium extraction rate can reach more than 95%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for electrochemically decomposing chromite to extract chromium, in particular to a method for electrochemically decomposing chromite in potassium hydroxide solution to extract chromium. Background technique [0002] Chromite, a mineral in the spinel configuration, is the only chromium ore currently available for mining. The composition of chromite is complex, the main components are oxides of iron, magnesium and chromium, and the general formula can be expressed as (Fe,Mg)Cr 2 o 4 . The main producing areas of chromite are Brazil and Cuba, and the main producing countries are India, Iran, Pakistan, Oman, Zimbabwe, Turkey and South Africa, accounting for 80% of the world's production. As far as China is concerned, chromite mainly exists in Sichuan, Tibet, Gansu, Qinghai and other provinces. It is a shortage of minerals in my country, with small reserves and low output. More than 80% of annual consumption depends on i...
