Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting germanium from zinc smelting replacement slag. According to the method, germanium-containing leachate is obtained through an oxygen pressure acid leaching process; and after an ion masking agent is added into the leachate, tannin is added to enable germanium to settle, tannin germanium sediment is obtained, the tannin germanium sediment is calcined, and then germanium concentrate is obtained. Compared with a traditional process, the method has the beneficial effects that 1, the oxygen pressure acid leaching process is adopted, mixed acid of sulfuric acid and hydrofluoric acid is used as a leaching agent, the leaching influences of silicone and iron on germanium are eliminated, the acidolysis speed is increased by 2 times or above, the leaching rate of germanium is increased, and the leaching rate of germanium reaches 95% or above; 2, by reducing the content of silicone and iron in the germanium leachate, the extraction influences of silicone and iron on germanium are eliminated, the recovery rate of germanium is increased, the quality of the germanium concentrate is improved, the recovery rate of germanium reaches 95% or above, and the mass fraction of germanium in the germanium concentrate is larger than 20%; and 3, the method is short in flow, low in energy consumption, easy to operate and low in production cost, and facilitates industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wet recovery method of valuable metals, in particular to a method for extracting germanium from zinc smelting replacement slag. Background technique [0002] The bulk industrial solid waste generated when zinc powder is used to replace and remove impurities in the purification section of the hydrometallurgy enterprise is called zinc smelting replacement slag. Discharging it will cause serious environmental pollution and is classified as national hazardous waste. Zinc smelting replacement slag is usually rich in scattered metal germanium, the germanium grade is 0.1-0.5%, and has a very high recovery value. However, because the slag contains a large amount of impurity elements iron and silicon, which have a great influence on the occurrence and existence of germanium, germanium usually exists in the slag in the form of inclusions, which makes the extraction of germanium difficult. This type of slag uses the rotary kiln volatil...
