Problems solved by technology

Wu Xian (CN101353803) discloses a method for leaching molybdenum and rhenium from molybdenum concentrate by pulp electrolysis. The electrolysis method proposed by Wu Xian produces chlorine gas at the anode and hydrogen gas at the cathode. Explosion will occur during the electrolysis process, so the feasibility is very small
However, the slurry electrolysis method has not yet been applied to nickel-molybdenum ore.

Abstract

The invention relates to a technique for leaching molybdenum from nickel-molybdenum ores by a wet process, belonging to the technical field of wet-process smelting of molybdenum. The technique comprises the following steps: by using nickel-molybdenum ore pulp as the raw material, adding water-soluble chlorine salt into the pulp in a Cl<->:Mo mole ratio of (2-3):1, stirring, and carrying out electrolysis under the condition of introducing oxygen-containing gas, wherein the bath voltage in the electrolysis process is 5-7.5V, the current density is 20-50 A / dm<2>, and the electrolysis temperature is 40-60 DEG C. By using the pulp electrolysis technique to leach the molybdenum, the molybdenum leaching rate is greater than or equal to 95%, and the electrolysis current efficiency is greater than or equal to 90%; and the technique can effectively and comprehensively recover molybdenum in the nickel-molybdenum ores and enhance the molybdenum resource utilization ratio. The technique has the advantages of low reaction temperature, high reaction speed, low energy consumption, high economy, environmental protection, high safety and high molybdenum leaching rate, and is convenient for implementing industrial application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process for wet leaching molybdenum from nickel-molybdenum ore, and belongs to the technical field of molybdenum hydrometallurgy. Background technique [0002] Molybdenum is an important strategic metal in my country, widely used in metallurgy, spraying, electronics and other industries. Nickel-molybdenum deposits are sedimentary black shale deposits, mainly distributed in Zunyi, Guizhou, Zhangjiajie, Hunan, Duchang, Hubei, Qujing, Yunnan, and Fuyang, Zhejiang. Nickel-molybdenum ore is a polymetallic composite ore, in which the molybdenum content is about 0.35% to 8.17%, mainly in the form of carpenter molybdenum ore. [0003] The industrial smelting of molybdenum-nickel ore is mainly to continue the smelting method of molybdenite, adopting the pyro-wet combined process, that is, the raw ore is oxidized and roasted first, and then the treated ore is leached and separated. will generate a lot of SO 2 Flue gas, due to the em...
