Problems solved by technology

In the past, the methods commonly used to increase the efficiency of uranium leaching by strengthening the acidity, strengthening the oxidant and prolonging the immersion time will not only inevitably further increase the production cost, but also easily cause precipitation blockage, which will affect the recovery of uranium resources.

Embodiment

[0058] Alkaline cloud uranium ore is a very acid-consuming and difficult to leach ore. The uranium grade is low, 0.1-0.12%, but the calcium carbonate content is high, more than 4-5%. In September 2015, two flow uranium leaching process tests were carried out using alkaline cloud-bound uranium ore, Example 1 and Example 2, and the two examples were YJLS7LD4 and YJLS8LD5 respectively.

[0059] 1. Determination of three hydrogeochemical parameters

[0060] 1. Reaction condition boundary value

[0061] When the reaction free energy of hydrogeochemical action is set to zero, and other reaction conditions related to the action are set as constant values, the ideal value of another studied reaction condition calculated according to the principle of thermodynamics is called Reaction condition boundary value.

[0062] In sulfuric acid medium, the reaction conditions related to calcium sulfate precipitation include sulfate radical and calcium ion, but the decisive factor is calcium io...

Abstract

The invention discloses a flow uranium leaching process, which adopts the flow of leaching solution to complete uranium leaching, and the leaching solution includes sulfuric acid solution, bacteria solution and uranium leaching reagent; according to the principles of hydrogeochemistry, the following three hydrogeochemical new methods are established: Parameters: (1) Reaction condition boundary value related to chemical thermodynamics, (2) Peak reaching time related to reaction kinetics, (3) Residence time or flow velocity related to hydrodynamic conditions; The retention conforms to the following principles: ① The period of time when the leaching is at the highest uranium leaching efficiency; ② The retention time should conform to the principle of "reaching the peak value, that is, flowing out of the system as soon as possible"; ③ The acidity of the leaching solution meets the requirements for uranium leaching and has nothing to do with uranium leaching The principle of leaching other components as little as possible; ④ The principle of harmful components not exceeding the boundary value. The invention changes the traditional batch-type pool and pile-type uranium leaching process into a continuous uninterrupted flow uranium leaching process, and achieves good results.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of uranium smelting, and relates to a high-efficiency uranium leaching process for avoiding precipitation compaction, in particular to a uranium leaching method suitable for hard rock uranium ore. Background technique [0002] With the development of nuclear power energy, the requirements for nuclear fuel will exceed the current development level of uranium resources. Due to the high cost of uranium smelting in the traditional water smelting process, it is only suitable for high-grade uranium ores. Therefore, most uranium mines in southern my country that mainly use hard rock have turned to heap leaching and pool leaching for uranium mining. host. However, the heap leaching and pool leaching uranium mining cycle is long, and it is difficult to meet the growing demand for uranium metal in nuclear power. What's more serious is that many uranium mines that rely mainly on heap leaching and pool leaching uranium mining st...
