Problems solved by technology

The disadvantages of the above patents are: (1) The barite in the ore is not recovered; (2) The magnetic separation tailings are directly subjected to flotation operations. In this process, the ore pulp needs to be concentrated to increase the flotation concentration and increase the process. Complexity; (3) Magnetic separation concentrates still need multi-stage separation to obtain rare earth concentrates. There are many equipments and high beneficiation costs. In the end, it is difficult to balance the grade and recovery rate of rare earth concentrates at the same time.
Although this patented method can recover many useful elements from tailings, its process flow is complex, especially high-temperature fluidized roasting and pickling operations are required, and its roasting temperature is as high as 500-900 °C, which is extremely difficult to apply in actual production , the use cost is high, and the operation is difficult
Moreover, even if the beneficiation method adopts a high-temperature fluidized roasting operation that is extremely difficult to implement and has a

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of energy saving and environmental protection, and provides a method for efficiently recycling rare earth, fluorite and barite from rare earth tailings. The method specifically comprises the following steps of: step (1). adding 100-600g/t of water glass, 50-400g/t of barite inhibitor, and 100-400g/t of rare earth and fluorite collecting agent to tailings pulp, stirring and mixing the pulp; step (2). performing mixed flotation initial separation, scavenging and concentration operation to obtain flotation concentrates and flotation cleaner tailings; step (3). performing strong magnetic initial separation and scavenging operation on the flotation concentrates to obtain strong magnetic tailings which are the final fluorite concentrates; step (4). performing rare earth reselection rough concentration and scavenging operation on the strong magnetic concentrates to obtain rare earth reselection concentrates which are the final rare earth concentrates; and step (5). performing barite reselection roughing separation, scavenging, concentration and concentrate sweeping operation on the floatation cleaner tailings to obtain the barite gravity concentrates which are the final barite concentrates. The method solves the problem of difficult recovery of rare earth, fluorite and barite in the ore, and the obtained target mineral has high grade and high recovery rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of energy conservation and environmental protection, relates to the field of clean development and utilization of metal / nonmetal resources and the technical field of tailings pollution control, and especially relates to the technical fields of reducing energy consumption of tailings pollutant treatment, protecting the environment, and high-value mineral processing. It relates to a method for efficiently recovering rare earth, fluorite and barite from rare earth tailings, so as to solve the problems in existing tailings. Background technique [0002] A large number of tailings are produced in the mineral processing industry, and the tailings contain some metals or non-metals that can be recycled. The existence of these substances in the tailings will not only cause ecological environmental pollution, but also cause a waste of resources. Rare earths are widely used in electronics, military, petrochemical, new ...
