Problems solved by technology

This method can effectively recover cyanide in wastewater, but the recovery rate of metal ions such as copper and zinc is insufficient
In addition, this technology also has problems such as high investment cost and strong corrosion of the medium.
Solvent extraction can recover most of the metals in wastewater, but due to the large loss of solvent in the extraction process and high operating costs, there are currently few application examples
In the process of treating cyanide-containing wastewater by ion resin, metal complex ions can be strongly adsorbed on the resin, which brings difficulties to the elution and regeneration of the resin, and at the same time reduces the saturated adsorption capacity of the resin, so this method is limited in the actual treatment process. application in

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recycling metal cyanide complex in gold mine cyanide-containing wastewater and recycling wastewater through a precipitation-gas flotation process. The method comprises the following steps: adjusting the pH value of the wastewater to be 6-7 and enabling copper ions in the wastewater to mainly exist in form of [Cu(CN)3]<2->; adding a metal cyanide complex ion collecting agent into the wastewater, reacting with copper-cyanide complex ions and lead-cyanide complex ions to generate flocculent precipitates; carrying out gas flotation and recycling the precipitates in a gas flotation device; and adding coagulant and treating the remaining wastewater and recycling the precipitated supernatant liquor. The method is capable of removing 90% and above of metal cyanide complex ions in the wastewater; cyanide in the remaining wastewater mainly exists in the form of free cyanide; the method can effectively solve the problem of accumulation of metal ions in leachate in a cyaniding and gold-extracting process; the treated wastewater can be used as circulation water, is returned to the system and is recycled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a precipitation-air flotation method for recovering metal cyanide complexes in gold mine cyanide-containing wastewater and a wastewater recycling method, which belongs to the technical field of wastewater treatment and resource recovery. Background technique [0002] At present, my country's gold production mainly adopts the cyanidation gold extraction process. The leachate produced after gold extraction contains not only precious metal ions such as gold and silver, but also heavy metal ions such as copper and lead. In the production process, the lean liquid with less metal ion content is returned to the system for recycling. As the barren solution is continuously recycled, metal ions such as copper and lead gradually accumulate in the leaching solution. The accumulated metal ions will increase the consumption of dissolved oxygen and sodium cyanide in the subsequent leaching process, and reduce the leaching efficiency of gold ...
