Embodiment 1

[0026] The first batch of red mud is subjected to a stirring leaching and a water washing:

[0027] The first batch of red mud and citric acid added in an amount of 12%~15% by mass of red mud are stirred and leached under the condition of a liquid-solid mass ratio of 3~5:1. The leaching process is carried out at a temperature of 30~40°C, The stirring time is 90~120min and the stirring intensity is 100~150r / min. After the stirring is completed, the ore pulp is press-filtered to obtain acidic leaching residue and acidic leaching solution. The acidic leaching solution is the primary dealkalization solution of the first batch of red mud. After washing with water, the first batch of dealkalization slag and washing liquid of red mud are obtained, and then citric acid with a mass percentage of 7% to 8% of the washing liquid is added to the washing liquid to obtain the second-stage dealkalization liquid of the first batch of red mud.

[0036] The first batch of red mud is subjected to a stirring leaching and a water washing:

[0037] The first batch of red mud and citric acid added in an amount of 9%~12% by mass of red mud are stirred and leached under the condition of a liquid-solid mass ratio of 3~5:1. The leaching process is carried out at a temperature of 40~50°C, The stirring time is 90~120min and the stirring intensity is 100~150r / min. After the stirring is completed, the ore pulp is press-filtered to obtain acidic leaching residue and acidic leaching solution. The acidic leaching solution is the primary dealkalization solution of the first batch of red mud.

Abstract

The invention discloses a red-mud citric acid dealkalizing technique. According to the technique, citric-acid three-level cross-flow dealkalizing operation is carried out on red mud, and Bayer-process red mud is dealkalized through citric acid. Due to the fact that the citric acid is organic tribasic acid, sodium and potassium in the red mud can be effectively removed under the condition of the lower citric acid using amount and the low temperature, the pH value of the dealkalized sludge ranges from 6.5 to 7.5, and the dealkalized sludge can be dammed and piled. Residual citric acid in the dealkalized sludge of the red mud can be degraded biologically, has a repairing function on alkaline soil and can serve as a modifying agent for the alkaline soil. The citric acid can generate calcium citrate sediment with other elements like calcium, so that calcium can be solidly stored in the dealkalized sludge of the red mud to be used as raw materials for manufacturing building materials. Elements like titanium, scandium and rare earth are difficult to dissolve out, the taste of the elements in the dealkalized sludge of the red mud is improved, and the dealkalized sludge can be used as raw materials to extract valuable rare metal. According to the red-mud citric acid dealkalizing technique, the citric acid can be recycled, and the consumption of chemical agents is reduced. In addition, the pH value of obtained dealkalized liquid ranges from 6.5 to 7.5, the dealkalized liquid does not contain heavy metal ions, and the dealkalized liquid can be drained and utilized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of red mud comprehensive treatment, in particular to a red mud citric acid dealkalization process. Background technique [0002] Bayer process red mud is the tailings produced in the Bayer process of aluminum smelting. It is a strong alkaline solid pollutant, and its storage process will cause groundwater and soil pollution. In addition, the high alkali content in red mud is a key factor restricting the extraction of valuable rare metals from red mud, the preparation of building materials and environmental adsorption materials, so effective measures must be taken to deal with this type of solid waste. At present, the red mud dealkalization process mainly includes the following methods: water immersion process (Zhang Guoli, Li Shaochun, Zhang Xinyuan, etc. "Study on the Bayer process of red mud water washing and alkali removal process", Journal of Qingdao University of Technology, 2012, 33 (4): 59 -62) There...
