Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting aluminum from fly ash, which comprises the following steps: slaking, wet-process roasting, acidification roasting, evaporative crystallization, aluminum hydroxide extraction, aluminum oxide preparation and fusion electrolysis. Most traditional methods for activating fly ash adopt mixed roasting and have higher energy consumption. According to the method, the fly ash is firstly activated in a liquid activator and then roasted, thereby achieving the activation effect at lower temperature within a short time. The liquid activator is free of any toxic substance, and the added elements can not influence the purity of the aluminum. The method has the advantages of low energy consumption, high aluminum leaching rate, no harmful waste liquor generated in the process, lower production cost, high safety and environment friendliness, and is suitable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention mainly relates to the field of extracting aluminum, in particular to a method for extracting aluminum from fly ash. Background technique [0002] Fly ash is a solid waste from coal-fired power plants. At present, the total storage of fly ash in my country has exceeded 1 billion tons, and now it is increasing at a rate of 80 million tons per year, while the utilization of fly ash is less than 50%. The stockpiling of fly ash not only occupies a large amount of land, pollutes the environment, but also endangers organisms and human health. Moreover, many useful components in fly ash cannot be rationally utilized, resulting in waste of resources. [0003] Fly ash contains 39.04% alumina and 3.30% iron oxide, from which Al2O3 with high economic value can be extracted and used as a new aluminum resource, which will help reduce the pressure on aluminum demand. It is also an effective way to improve the comprehensive utilization value of fly ash...
