Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for recovering polymetallic nodules, comprising: selectively reducing and leaching raw materials of polymetallic nodules through a cathode electrolysis chamber to obtain leaching solutions of various metal elements and leaching slag containing iron; In the anion exchange membrane separating the cathodic electrolysis chamber and the anodic electrolysis chamber, the active anions in the solution are exchanged into the anodic electrolysis chamber; the active anions are used in the anodic electrolysis chamber to extract the active species of the synthetic acid; the active species of the acid are processed After acid treatment, it is introduced into the cathodic electrolysis chamber to perform selective reduction and leaching of the polymetallic nodule raw materials in the cathodic electrolysis chamber again to form an acid cycle; It is separated and recovered from the iron-containing leaching slag. The invention can solve the problems of large consumption of leaching agent, complicated purification of leaching solution, low metal extraction rate and the like in the current wet method for recovering polymetallic nodules.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electrochemical hydrometallurgy of polymetallic nodules, and more particularly, to a method and device for recovering polymetallic nodules. Background technique [0002] The treasure house of marine resources contains huge mineral resources to be developed, such as coastal sand deposits in shallow coastal zones, oil, natural gas and natural gas hydrates on continental shelves and continental slopes, and hydrothermal sulfides in marine basins. Among them, rich polymetallic minerals are bred in the seabed area. However, such metal resources have not been fully recognized and exploited, including polymetallic nodules that are rich in strategic metals such as nickel, copper, cobalt and manganese with great economic development potential. Limited to seabed exploration, mining and beneficiation technologies. Therefore, the improvement of beneficiation and metallurgy technology is an important way to break thro...
