Abstract

The invention provides a zinc and cobalt separation method. The zinc and cobalt separation method specifically includes the steps that 1, most metal in slag with high content of zinc and cobalt enters leaching solutions in a leaching mode, the leaching rate reaches 95% of above, and the metal recovery rate is high; 2, iron, copper and cadmium are removed in a combined mode, the purification process is simplified, the content of the iron, the copper and the cadmium in the solutions can be lowered to 5 mg / L or below, and the purification efficiency is high; 3, preliminary separation of the zinc and the cobalt is realized, the technology is simple, and the operation is easy; and 4, residual zinc is further removed, and complete separation of the zinc and the cobalt is realized. According to the method, the technology is simple, separation of the zinc and the cobalt is complete, the consumption is small, the production cost is low, and the recovery rate of the zinc and the cobalt in materials containing the zinc and the cobalt can reach 90% or above.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal smelting, and relates to the treatment of high-cobalt slag in the zinc hydrometallurgy process, in particular to a zinc-cobalt separation method for the high-cobalt slag obtained in the zinc hydrometallurgy process. Background technique [0002] Cobalt production raw materials can be divided into two categories: cobalt minerals and cobalt waste, among which cobalt waste is obtained from cobalt slag obtained from nickel and zinc smelting systems, or waste alloys, battery materials, catalysts, etc. In the process of zinc hydrometallurgy, cobalt is a very harmful impurity element. The leaching solution can only be returned to electrolysis after purification and removal of cobalt. After the purified cobalt slag is oxidized and acid leached, cobalt is further enriched to produce high-cobalt slag. The high-cobalt slag contains 20-25% zinc, 6-12% cobalt, and iron, copper, cadmium and other metals. Because...
