Problems solved by technology

Alkaline hydrolysis uses strong alkali to decompose ore under heating and pressure, but the disadvantages are obvious: boric acid or borax cannot be directly obtained; the alkali content is high, the cost is high, and the equipment is corroded; the undecomposed slag is strongly alkaline, Difficult to handle
Although the carbon-soda method can process boron mafic ore, the magnesium element associated with boron is finally mixed in the boron mud in the form of basic magnesium carbonate and cannot be recovered by a simple process, and the leached slag is boron mud, because it contains carbonic acid Sodium makes it alkaline and difficult to handle, and when boron mud is stacked in the open air, it will also appear "return to alkali" and pollute the surrounding environment

Embodiment 1

[0056] Transport the low-grade magnesium-boron-containing concentrate to the roasting kiln, and roast it at 690°C±5°C, and transport the roasted material to the alkaline hydrolysis batching tank, according to mineral powder: sodium hydroxide (calculated as solid): The mass ratio of water is 100:25:400 for batching. After the batching is completed, the mixed material is transported to the alkaline hydrolysis tank, sealed and heated to 155°C for alkaline hydrolysis extraction. After 2 hours of extraction, it begins to cool to normal pressure and 95°C. Afterwards, the obtained product is sent to the first filter for filtration to obtain alkali hydrolysis boron mud and sodium metaborate solution;

[0057] The sodium metaborate solution is concentrated and crystallized to obtain hydrated sodium metaborate crystals, which is the finished product.

[0058] The obtained alkali hydrolyzed boron mud is transported to the magnesium batching tank, and the mass ratio of alkali hydrolyzed b...

Embodiment 2

[0061]The process of preparing sodium metaborate to co-produce light magnesium carbonate is the same as that of Example 1, except that the roasting temperature in this example is 750°C±5°C.

[0062] In this embodiment, the yield of sodium metaborate prepared was 58%, the yield of light magnesium carbonate was 38%, and the pH of the finally discharged boron sludge was 8.

Embodiment 3

[0064] The process of preparing sodium metaborate to co-produce light magnesium carbonate is the same as that of Example 1, except that the concentration of sodium hydroxide in this example is 150 g / L.

[0065] In this embodiment, the yield of sodium metaborate prepared was 66%, the yield of light magnesium carbonate was 40%, and the pH of the finally discharged boron sludge was 7.7.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing sodium metaborate with a coproduct of light magnesium carbonate from low-grade ores containing magnesium and boron. The method comprises the following steps: activating the ores containing magnesium and boron to obtain an activated ore concentrate containing magnesium and boron; performing sodium modification on the activated ore concentrate containing magnesium and boron to obtain a sodium metaborate solution and alkaline hydrolysis boron mud; performing concentration crystallization on the sodium metaborate solution to obtain hydrated sodium metaborate; mixing the alkaline hydrolysis boron mud with water to obtain an alkaline hydrolysis boron mud mixture, and carbonizing the alkaline hydrolysis boron mud mixture by adopting a carbon decomposition gas to obtain a heavy magnesium solution and boron mud; and pyrolyzing the heavy magnesium solution to obtain light magnesium carbonate. According to the method, the low-grade ore concentrate containing magnesium and boron is activated at first so as to improve the activity of boron and ensure that borne can be fully extracted; meanwhile, ores containing magnesium are decomposed to generate magnesium hydroxide, which creates a condition for subsequent extraction of magnesium compounds; and by virtue of sodium modification and carbon decomposition, the extraction of boron and magnesium from the activated ore concentrate containing magnesium and boron is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ore element extraction, in particular to a method for preparing sodium metaborate and co-producing light magnesium carbonate from low-grade magnesium-boron-containing ore. Background technique [0002] Boron is an important chemical element with a natural abundance of about 0.001% in nature. It mainly exists in minerals such as natural borax, colemanite, sorbite and boronite, or in the form of liquid ore in some in some salt lakes. The utilization of boron-containing minerals in the prior art is mainly aimed at high-grade boron ore or concentrated liquid ore, and is to enrich and extract boron-containing components to extract borax or boric acid. However, for boron, a resource that is difficult to form ore, has few veins, and is in short supply of rich ore, if boron can be extracted from low-grade boron-containing ores, it will certainly be able to greatly relieve the pressure on boron demand.
