Problems solved by technology

At present, the recovery of selenium from acid mud has been intensively and extensively studied. Generally, the hydrometallurgical process of "leaching-removal-reduction-multiple purification" is used for recovery, and other studies use the roasting process to prepare SeO 2 , or use the roasting process to change the occurrence state of selenium, and then recover it through the hydrometallurgical process, but the process of the above-mentioned processes is relatively complicated, and the recovery rate of valuable elements is low, and the added value of the product is low. In addition, when the acid mud When the mercury content is high, when the traditional roasting process is used for recovery, it will not only cause the loss of mercury, but also affect the purity of the product

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering selenium, mercury, gold and silver from acid sludge. The method comprises the steps: (1) putting the acid sludge, generated from a sulfide ore roasting flue gas acid preparing process, into a tubular furnace, and carrying out roasting treatment under the condition of a protective atmosphere, so as to obtain roasting slag and flue gas containing gaseous mercury selenide; (2) cooling the flue gas, so as to cool the gaseous mercury selenide in the flue gas into solid-state mercury selenide and recover selenium and mercury from the acid sludge; (3) extracting gold and silver from the roasting slag obtained in the step (1) by adopting a cyanidation method, so as to recover gold and silver from the acid sludge. According to the method, the solid-state mercury selenide with high added value is obtained by adopting a protective atmosphere roasting process, and gold and silver are recovered by adopting the cyanidation method, so that the method has the advantages of brief flow, high product added value, high purity, high valuable element recovery ratio and little environmental pollution.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of comprehensive recovery of secondary resources, and in particular relates to a method for recovering selenium, mercury, gold and silver from acid mud. Background technique [0002] In order to ensure the quality of sulfuric acid in the process of making acid from sulfide ore roasting flue gas, it is usually necessary to perform dust removal, impurity removal and fog removal on the flue gas generated during the roasting process. , the acid-containing sludge produced in this process is referred to as acid sludge. In the process of high-temperature roasting of sulfide ore, the fine dust and volatile substances in the ore are enriched in the acid mud, resulting in more types of valuable elements in the acid mud (such as: selenium, mercury, gold, silver, lead, etc. ), and the content is relatively high, therefore, it is particularly important to comprehensively recover the valuable elements in the acid mud.
