Problems solved by technology

[0002] At present, the relatively mature professional gold smelting technology at home and abroad generally adopts the process of complex gold concentrate-sulphating roasting-acid leaching to remove impurities-cyanide gold extraction. Acid sludge with different properties is produced due to different dust effects and mineral sources. Generally, it is directly returned to the production process to recover valuable metals such as gold and silver. The valuable element selenium is not effectively recycled, and the harmful element metal mercury circulates in the production system, affecting process indicators. and gold and silver recovery
Chinese patent application CN102642848A (application number 201210115420.9) "Comprehensive utilization method of acid sludge produced in flue gas acid production" discloses a comprehensive utilization method of acid sludge produced in flue gas acid production, mainly for copper nickel smelting flue gas acid Mud, selenium content is low (0.30-1.0%), metal mercury and gold, silver and precious metals are not detected in the acid mud, and the recovery of fluorine, selenium, silicon, arsenic with a more complicated process has no commonality with gold smelting acid mud
"Modern Comprehensive Utilization Technology of Copper Anode Slime" (edited by Wang Jikun and Zhang Boya, Metallurgical Industry Press, 2008.1) discloses that copper anode slime adopts sulfuration roasting method to recover selenium and copper, but there is no specific method for gold smelting containing low-grade gold and silver and Treatment process of selenium mercury acid mud

Embodiment 1

[0018] The mass content of main components contained in a kind of acid mud is as follows: Au84g / t, Ag430g / t, Cu6.23%, Se7.97%, Hg11.83%, Fe18.36%, Pb1.73%, SiO 2 39.61%, Al 2 o 3 1.04%, CaO0.194%, MgO0.193%. Weigh 500g of the dried acid mud and put it into a roasting pan, adjust it into a slurry with 500g of sulfuric acid, spread it evenly, put it into a closed muffle furnace that has been heated to 650°C in advance, and pass in air to control the roasting at 650°C Selenium is steamed, the roasting flue gas is collected with a sulfuric acid solution with a mass fraction of 5% at 70°C under a slight negative pressure, and the selenium and mercury are steamed for 3 hours. A total of 98.06g of the selenium-mercury mixture was obtained after dilute acid filtration. Add 300ml of water, add 600ml of nitric acid with a mass fraction of 40% several times in small quantities, control the acid-dissolving temperature at 80°C under stirring conditions, and dissolve completely after 3 ho...

[0021] The mass content of the main components contained in an acid mud is as follows: Au4g / t, Ag1167g / t, Cu0.5%, Se1.53%, Hg2.82%, Fe19.79%, Pb1.57%, SiO 2 23.18%, Al 2 o 3 2.15%, CaO0.257%, MgO0.212%. Weigh 667g of the acid mud with a water content of 15% and put it into a roasting pan, mix it with 0.4g of sodium chloride, make it into a slurry with 250g of sulfuric acid, spread it evenly, and put it into a closed muffle furnace that has been heated to 250°C in advance. The air is controlled to roast at 300°C to steam selenium, and the sulfuric acid solution with a mass fraction of 80°C with a mass fraction of 20% is used to collect the roasting flue gas under a slight negative pressure, and the roasting is to steam selenium and mercury for 8 hours. After dilute acid filtration, a total of 22.78g of selenium-mercury mixture was obtained, 100ml of water was added, 150ml of nitric acid with a mass fraction of 40% was added several times in small amounts, the acid-dissolving ...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for recycling multiple elements in acid mud generated in acid making through gold smelting. The method comprises the following steps of a. pretreating the acid mud generated in acid making through gold smelting, then adding sulfuric acid, stirring the materials uniformly and carrying out roasting; b. absorbing flue gases with hot sulfuric acid and filtering the flue gases; c. adding water to a selenium-mercury mixture obtained after filtration and then adding nitric acid to completely dissolve the selenium-mercury mixture; d. using ammonia water to adjust the pH value of a solution to be 5-6, then adding an ammonium sulfide solution to adjust the pH value of the solution to be 6.5-7.5, reacting for 2-20 hours and filtering the product; e. using sulfuric acid to adjust the pH value of a selenium-containing solution to be 0.5-1.5, adding sulfuric dioxide or sodium sulfite 1.1-1.5 times the substance selenium by amount, filtering the solution and returning the waste liquor to the step b; f. leaching copper and other metal impurities from roasting slag obtained after roasting in the step a with a sulfuric acid solution, then filtering the products, extracting and recycling copper from the filtrate at normal temperature by adopting LIX 984 or adopting iron powder for replacement to obtain copper sponges; g. recycling gold and silver from filter residues with sodium cyanide.
