Problems solved by technology

At present, the production of aluminum by molten salt electrolysis is the most important method for the production of metal aluminum. Putting alumina and silicon oxide as raw materials directly into the electrolytic aluminum system can also produce aluminum-silicon alloys, but iron oxide and calcium oxide are the most harmful impurities. , iron oxide will be reduced during the electrolysis process, affecting the quality of the alloy; calcium oxide will decompose cryolite, change the composition of the electrolyte and increase the consumption of fluoride salt
The main difficulty in preparing aluminum-silicon alloys by using molten salt electrolysis of low-grade aluminum resources is to remove harmful impurities such as iron oxide and calcium oxide.

Abstract

The invention belongs to a method for comprehensive utilization of resources, in particular to a method for preparing an aluminum-silicon alloy from low-grade aluminum resources. The aluminum-silicon alloy is prepared through the steps of preliminary iron removal by magnetic separation, iron removal by ammonium bisulfate, calcium removal, and molten salt electrolysis. Iron is removed through ammonium bisulfate circulation, while the lost alumina is effectively recovered, ammonium bisulfate is recycled, and the cost is low; there is no discharge of waste residue and wastewater in the process, which is more environmentally friendly. The purpose of the present invention is to remove iron oxide and calcium oxide, and the cost is much lower than that of separately purifying aluminum oxide and silicon oxide. The reaction system of the invention is a weak acid and alkaline system, and the equipment is easy to solve, which is beneficial to industrialization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a method for comprehensive utilization of resources, in particular to a method for preparing aluminum-silicon alloy from low-grade aluminum resources. Background technique [0002] Aluminum-silicon alloy is a very important industrial alloy, which is widely used in important industries such as aviation, transportation, construction, and automobile, and is also used to manufacture castings with low and medium strength and complex shapes, such as cover plates, motor casings, and brackets etc., are also used as brazing solder. The alloy is a typical eutectic alloy with a simple phase diagram and no intermediate compounds. It has the characteristics of good casting performance and high specific strength. Traditionally, the raw materials used in the production of aluminum-silicon alloys are bauxite, kaolin and silica ore. Submerged arc furnaces are used to produce silicon-aluminum alloys from aluminum-containing ores and silica ore...
