Abstract

The invention discloses a beneficiation method for spodumene ore. The spodumene ore is crushed and ground, ore pulp obtained after ore grinding is sequentially subjected to low-intensity magnetic separation and high-intensity magnetic separation, and weak-magnetism concentrates and strong-magnetism concentrates are obtained; discharged strong-magnetism tailings are fed to the flotation operation after being subjected to concentration and desliming, and the flotation operation process includes primary roughing, secondary scavenging and secondary fine selecting; calcium fatty acid prepared through the double decomposition reaction of a sodium fatty acid soap solution and a calcium chloride water solution is adopted as a collecting agent, the Li2O grade in the finally-obtained lithium concentrate reaches up to 5.7%-6.2%, and the recycling rate is 78%-88%. According to the beneficiation method, the beneficiation technology process is simple, stability and reliability are achieved, applicability is high, and the laboratory index highly conforms to the industry application index; and the defect that in the existing spodumene ore beneficiation technology, the difference between the industry application index and the laboratory index is large is overcome; and the adopted collecting agent has excellent properties that selectivity is good, the collecting capability is high, and environment friendliness is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mineral processing, and in particular relates to a spodumene beneficiation method. Background technique [0002] Lithium has been widely used in metallurgy, aviation, aerospace and other fields, especially in lithium batteries and controllable thermonuclear fusion reactors. Lithium has become an important material for long-term supply of human energy. Lithium is known as "energy metal" and "the metal that drives the world forward". Lithium batteries are the backbone of the development of the IT industry; lithium deuteride and lithium tritium are important raw materials for hydrogen bombs, and they play an important role in nuclear energy and aerospace. In addition, lithium and its compounds are also used in synthetic rubber, alloys, air conditioners, medicine, welding, etc., so the current global demand for lithium metal is very urgent. As a strategic emerging mineral raw material, spodumene is an urgen...
