Problems solved by technology

The vulcanizing agent used in vulcanization flotation is mainly sodium sulfide. When activating the oxidized ore, the consumption of sodium sulfide is relatively large (generally, the dosage per ton of ore is tens of grams to one kilogram), resulting in high production costs, and the residual sodium sulfide enters the Mineral processing wastewater also brings difficulties to tailings treatment
And because sodium sulfide is unstable in the air, easy to deliquescence, impact or rapid heat can cause explosion, its production, storage and transportation are difficult, which makes it difficult to expand its application range, and it is mainly used in copper mines. There are few studies involving nickel, Flotation recovery of zinc and other oxide ores

Abstract

The invention provides a method for vulcanizing low-grade oxidized nickel ore with a microbiological method. According to the invention, sulfate is reduced by using sulfate-reducing bacteria, such that hydrogen sulfide is produced, and is used as a vulcanizing agent of the oxidized nickel ore. Through means of regulating temperature, vulcanizing agent dose, pH value, and the like, oxidized nickel ore surface vulcanization is carried out. A floatation technology is used for processing the vulcanized ore, such that low-grade oxidized nickel ore can be effectively processed. With the method provided by the invention, processing cost is low, the process is simple and easy to operate, environment pollution is low, and valuable metal ion recovery rate is high. The method has excellent industrial application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of microorganisms. In particular, it relates to a method for sulfiding low-grade oxidized nickel ore using a microbial method, which is a process method for sulfiding low-grade oxidized nickel ore using a microbial method of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB, sulfate reducing bacteria). Background technique [0002] Aiming at the problem that oxidized ores are difficult to recover by flotation, some researchers have suggested that oxidized ores can be sulfided first, and then flotation. Sulfidation, the wet process of converting non-sulfide mineral surfaces to sulfide-like surfaces, is an attractive method for treating oxidized sulfide ores. Flotation of oxidized copper-cobalt minerals by sulfidation method has a successful precedent. Ou Leming et al. aimed at a refractory copper-cobalt oxidized ore in Congo (Kinshasa) with high oxidation rate, high binding rate, severe mudification, and high content of harmfu...
