Abstract

A method for selectively separating and recycling tellurium from tellurium-containing materials includes the following steps that firstly, the tellurium-containing materials are added into a sodium sulfide solution, stirred, leached and then filtered to obtain a leaching solution and leaching residues; secondly, the leaching solution obtained after the first step is subjected to swirl electrolysis in a circulating electrolytic cell, and a cathode product is taken out after swirl electrolysis is finished; thirdly, the cathode product obtained after the second step is sequentially subjected to boiling with an oxalic acid solution, water washing and drying to obtain high-purity tellurium, wherein the purity reaches 99.9% or above. The tellurium-containing materials are processed by means of the sodium sulfide solution, tellurium in the tellurium-containing materials can be further selectively separated out, antimony, bismuth, lead and other metal are enriched in the leaching residues, and the separation effect is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of metallurgy, in particular to a method for selectively separating and recovering tellurium from tellurium-containing materials. Background technique [0002] Tellurium is a rare element and is widely used as an alloy additive in the metallurgical industry, as a catalyst and vulcanizing agent in the petrochemical industry, as an important raw material for semiconductors and optical devices in the electronics and electrical industries, and as a supporting material for contemporary high-tech new materials. Because of its important position in the modern high-tech industry, national defense and cutting-edge technology fields, tellurium has been paid more and more attention by people, and its application range has become wider and wider, and its influence on the development of the national economy has become greater and greater. [0003] At present, tellurium is mainly recovered from copper concentrate and lead concentra...
