Problems solved by technology

This mainstream technology is currently facing several serious problems: First, alkaline pressure cooking needs to consume alkali such as sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate. The cost of wolframite decomposition is very high; second, alkali pressure cooking will produce alkali cooking slag, which has been listed in the national hazardous waste catalog, and tungsten smelting enterprises are not allowed to dispose of it at will, and must be handed over to qualified enterprises for paid treatment, and The state also charges an environmental protection tax of 2,000 yuan/ton for the hazardous waste alkali cooking slag, which greatly increas...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for extracting tungsten by acid decomposition of wolframite. The method comprises the following steps: (1) a leaching reaction; (2) filtering and washing; (3) hydrogen peroxide extraction-tungsten decomposition extraction; (4) multi-time hydrogen peroxide dissolving-decomposition for purifying tungstic acid; (5) preparation of tungsten trioxide by calcination of pure tungstic acid; and (6) preparation of tungsten oxide and tungsten powder by spray pyrolysis of a peroxotungstic acid solution. A small amount of nitric acid or hydrochloric acid and a large amountof cheap and easily available sulfuric acid are actually consumed in the decomposition process of the method, so the decomposition cost of tungsten ores is greatly reduced; hydrogen peroxide is usedas an extractant for tungstic acid, so ammonia nitrogen wastewater is not generated, an ammonia nitrogen wastewater generating technology used in tungsten smelting for many years is abolished, and the environmental protection cost is greatly reduced; and the method allows various tungsten end products (tungsten oxide and tungsten powder) of tungsten to be directly produced, so the added values oftungsten smelting enterprises are increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of chemical production, in particular to a method for acid-decomposing wolframite to extract tungsten. Background technique [0002] At present, the mainstream technology for processing wolframite in industry is to first use sodium hydroxide to pressure cook to obtain crude sodium tungstate solution and alkali cooking residue. Crude sodium tungstate solution is converted into ammonium tungstate solution by ion exchange technology after being diluted with a large amount of water, and is also transformed into ammonium tungstate solution by solvent extraction. This mainstream technology is currently facing several serious problems: First, alkaline pressure cooking needs to consume alkali such as sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate. The cost of wolframite decomposition is very high; second, alkali pressure cooking will produce alkali cooking slag, which has been listed in the national hazardous waste catalog, and tungst...
