Problems solved by technology

The addition of nickel concentrate and anode slime is done manually, which is labor-intensive; nickel concentrate and anode slime are added every 20 to 30 minutes, the whole process fluctuates frequently, and the copper content of the solution cannot be guaranteed; the resulting waste slag contains nickel by weight As high as 20~30%, it is necessary to introduce chlorine gas to leach and recover nickel. The leaching solution is rich in high copper impurities, and it needs to be returned to the electrowinning process to produce sponge copper. The entire purification process is long and complicated, and chlorine gas is used for recovery. Nickel is also not conducive to environmental protection

Abstract

The invention relates to a chemical purification method, especially to a copper removal method which is suitable for a nickel electrolysis anolyte purification process. The copper removal method provided by the invention is obviously different from a copper removal method by adding anode mud in nickel ore concentrate as follows: a sodium hydrosulphite solution is added in an iron-removed liquid to activate copper ions and increase reaction probability between copper ions and amorphous nickel sulfide; as amorphous nickel sulfide is added into a copper removal tank in a slurry form, labor intensity is reduced, it is convenient to realize automatic control, and stabilization and continuity of the copper removal process are guaranteed; and as copper slag can directly enter a copper melting system, the technology is optimized, flow of copper impurity in the system is shortened, copper slag is processed not by the use of chlorine, and the environment is improved. Through detection, a copper-removed liquid contains 0.4-2.5ppm of copper. Thus, purification requirements are met. The mass ratio of copper to nickel in the copper slag is 15-17. The copper slag can be directly melted to produce anode plates.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a chemical purification method, in particular to a method for removing copper, which is suitable for the purification process of nickel electrolysis anolyte. Background technique [0002] At present, the copper removal method of nickel concentrate plus anode slime is widely used in the nickel electrolysis production process. The method is mainly to add nickel concentrate and anode slime into the copper removal tank according to the weight ratio of 3.5~4:1 to carry out the copper removal reaction. The amount of nickel concentrate added is 110~140kg / t. The addition of nickel concentrate and anode slime is done manually, which is labor-intensive; nickel concentrate and anode slime are added every 20 to 30 minutes, the whole process fluctuates frequently, and the copper content of the solution cannot be guaranteed; the resulting waste slag contains nickel by weight As high as 20~30%, it is necessary to introduce chlorine gas to...
