Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering tellurium by swirl electrolysis of a tellurium-containing solution, which comprises the following steps: adding concentrated sulfuric acid into the tellurium-containing solution until the pH value of the tellurium-containing solution is 5.7-6.5, controlling the temperature of the tellurium-containing solution to be higher than React at 90°C for 2 to 4 hours, filter; leach the filter residue obtained after filtration with sodium hydroxide solution; perform swirl electrolysis on the leaching solution obtained after leaching, and take out the cathode after swirl electrolysis; The solution is boiled, washed, and dried to obtain high-purity tellurium. The invention adopts swirl electrolysis to recover tellurium in the tellurium-containing solution, which avoids the influence of unfavorable factors on electrowinning such as the decrease of current efficiency and the increase of concentration polarization caused by the slow flow of the solution in the traditional electrolysis process, and shortens the electrolysis cycle of tellurium , which reduces the concentration requirements of impurity elements in the electrolyte, and has many advantages such as high selectivity, high current density, and high product purity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of metallurgy, in particular to a method for recovering tellurium by swirling electrolysis of a solution containing tellurium. Background technique [0002] Tellurium is an important scattered metal. Due to its special physical and chemical properties, it is widely used in many fields such as metallurgy, chemical industry, petroleum, electronics, electrical, glass ceramics, pigments and medicine. High-purity tellurium is the best choice for preparing compound semiconductor materials. Basic materials, with the development of the electronics industry, the demand for high-purity tellurium is increasing day by day. [0003] At present, the main preparation method of high-purity tellurium is the electrolytic refining method. The electrolytic refining method is to dissolve the purified tellurium dioxide in sodium hydroxide solution to prepare an electrolyte. The ordinary steel plate is used as the anode and the stainless st...
