Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of weakly magnetic refractory iron ore beneficiation, and specifically relates to a weakly magnetic refractory iron ore beneficiation process, which is particularly suitable for the efficient separation of weakly magnetic refractory iron ore with a TFe grade between 25% and 35% and iron minerals mainly being hematite and siderite. Background Art

[0002] Iron ore is the main raw material of the steel industry, mainly distributed in Australia, Brazil, Russia, China and other countries; among them, the average total iron grade of Australian and Brazilian iron ore is relatively high, above 50%; while the average total iron grade of Chinese iron ore is only 34.5%, far below the world average. China's complex and difficult-to-select iron ore resources reserves exceed 20 billion tons, mainly including fine-grained hematite, siderite, limonite and hematite. At present, limonite, siderite and their paragenetic ores (red ore) are iron ores with large reserves but difficult to be separated. They are typical low-grade and difficult-to-select iron ores. Due to their poor, fine and mixed characteristics, they are difficult to beneficiate and have extremely low utilization rates. It is difficult to obtain good technical and economic indicators for the above-mentioned complex and difficult-to-select iron ore resources through traditional beneficiation methods. The iron concentrate recovery rate and concentrate grade obtained by conventional gravity-magnetic-flotation ore separation technology are both low, with serious waste of resources and poor concentrate quality, which is difficult to meet the requirements of concentrate smelting.

[0003] At present, the utilization rate of siderite and limonite in my country is extremely low, and most of them are not recycled or mined at all. Since the theoretical grade of siderite is low and it often coexists with calcium, magnesium and manganese, it is difficult to achieve an iron concentrate grade of more than 45% using physical beneficiation methods. In addition, since limonite is rich in crystal water, it is also difficult to achieve an iron concentrate grade of more than 60% using physical beneficiation methods.

[0004] For a long time, mineral processing researchers have conducted a lot of research on the separation of iron ore in my country, and successfully developed processes such as stage grinding-coarse and fine grading-gravity separation-magnetic separation-anion reverse flotation, rotary kiln roasting-magnetic separation, etc. However, the above processes have many disadvantages when processing complex and difficult-to-select iron ores, such as complex process flow, high energy consumption, high reagent cost, and low equipment productivity. In recent years, the developed suspended magnetization roasting-magnetic separation technology is an effective technical means to process complex and difficult-to-select iron ores. It has the advantages of good roasting product quality, low energy consumption, and high automation level. However, compared with physical mineral processing methods, the suspended magnetization roasting-magnetic separation technology still has relatively high energy consumption, high production cost, and the flue gas generated has a great impact on the environment. In addition, the iron grade of the final iron concentrate is not high, especially it is highly sensitive to the price of iron concentrate powder. Once the price of iron concentrate powder falls, it is possible to suffer losses and stop production. For example, the article "Suspended Magnetic Roasting Test and Mechanism Research of Jiugang Iron Ore" published in the 4th issue of "Metal Mine" in 2022 carried out suspended magnetic roasting tests and mechanism research. The test results showed that under the conditions of roasting time of 10 minutes, roasting temperature of 570°C, and CO concentration of 20%, suspended magnetic roasting was carried out. After magnetic separation, only the best indicators of concentrate iron grade of 52.98% and iron recovery rate of 83.92% were obtained.

[0005] In addition, pre-selection is an important operation in the beneficiation of low-grade iron ore. By discarding qualified tailings in advance through pre-selection, not only can the grade of selected iron ore be improved, but also the amount of subsequent processing can be greatly reduced, thus achieving the purpose of energy saving and consumption reduction. For a long time, for strongly magnetic minerals, a single magnetic separation process is usually used to obtain satisfactory pre-selection indicators. However, for weakly magnetic minerals such as hematite, limonite, and siderite, if only a single magnetic separation process is used, the separation effect is much worse than that of strongly magnetic minerals.

[0006] Therefore, it is urgent to develop new methods for efficient pre-selection, separation and enrichment of difficult-to-select weakly magnetic iron ore with coexisting hematite, limonite and siderite. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for beneficiating refractory iron ore containing coexisting hematite and siderite, in order to address the technical difficulties in the prior art, such as the inability to pre-select and discard weakly magnetic iron minerals, poor separation effect for coarse particles of 50 mm and fine particles of less than 6 mm, and small processing capacity.

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned object of the present invention, a refractory iron ore beneficiation method of hematite and siderite coexisting in the present invention is implemented by the following steps:

[0009] S1 crushes the weakly magnetic refractory iron ore with TFe content between 25% and 35% and mainly hematite and siderite into smaller than 100mm in a closed circuit, and then dry screens the ore three times to obtain four particle sizes of 0-6mm, 6-15mm, 15-40mm and 40-100mm.

[0010] S2 uses different pre-selection equipment to pre-select and discard tailings for the three particle sizes of 6-15mm, 15-40mm, and 40-100mm obtained in step S1, wherein the 6-15mm particle size is pre-selected by a dry strong magnetic separator to obtain a dry strong magnetic pre-selected concentrate and discharge the dry strong magnetic tailings, the 15-40mm particle size is pre-selected by a large block jig to obtain a jig pre-selected concentrate and discharge the jig pre-selected tailings, and the 40-100mm particle size is pre-selected by a photoelectric intelligent separator to obtain a photoelectric intelligent pre-selected concentrate and discharge the photoelectric intelligent pre-selected tailings;

[0011] In step S3, the photoelectric intelligent pre-selected concentrate obtained in step S2 is crushed to 0-40 mm by fine crushing in a closed circuit, and then combined with the jigging pre-selected concentrate obtained in step S2, and then crushed to 0-6 mm by ultra-fine crushing in a closed circuit, and then the ultra-fine crushed product is combined with the 0-6 mm particle size obtained in step S1, and then wet strong magnetic pre-selection is performed using a coarse wet strong magnetic separator to obtain a wet strong magnetic pre-selected concentrate and discharge a wet strong magnetic tailings;

[0013] S5 grinds the final pre-selected concentrate obtained in step S4, and then separates the ground product through fine-grained wet strong magnetic roughing and sweeping separation, and discharges fine-grained wet strong magnetic roughing tailings and fine-grained wet strong magnetic concentration tailings respectively, to obtain fine-grained wet strong magnetic concentration concentrate;

[0014] S6 feeds the fine-grained wet strong magnetic concentration concentrate obtained in step S5 into a first roughing, a first fine, and a second scavenging reverse flotation operation to obtain a final iron concentrate, and discharges the reverse flotation scavenging tailings; the reverse flotation scavenging tailings are combined with the fine-grained wet strong magnetic roughing tailings and the fine-grained wet strong magnetic concentration tailings discharged in step S5 to form the final fine-grained tailings.

[0015] Preferably, in step S1, the secondary crushing equipment is a jaw crusher, and the screen forming a closed circuit with the secondary crushing equipment is a linear vibrating screen with a sieve hole size of 100 mm; the sieves for the three dry screenings are also linear vibrating screens with sieve hole sizes of 40 mm, 15 mm, and 6 mm, respectively; the dry high-intensity magnetic separator is a permanent magnet roller-type high-intensity magnetic powder ore dry separator with a maximum feed particle size of 20 mm; the magnetic field strength of the drum surface is 11000-13000 Oe, 12000Oe is preferred; the frequency of the drum inverter is 28-32HZ, preferably 30HZ; the large block jig machine is a diaphragm large block jig machine, the jig stroke is 130-150 times / min, and the jig stroke is 90-110mm; the photoelectric intelligent sorting machine is an XNDT-104 fully automatic intelligent online sorting machine, the belt width is 1.5-1.7m, preferably 1.6m; the belt speed is 3-4m / s.

[0017] Preferably, in step S3, the fine crushing equipment is a jaw crusher, and the screen forming a closed circuit with it is a linear vibrating screen with a sieve hole size of 40 mm; the ultra-fine crushing equipment is a high-pressure roller mill, and the sieve forming a closed circuit with it is a linear vibrating screen with a sieve hole size of 6 mm; the coarse-grained wet high-intensity magnetic separator is a Slon coarse-grained vertical ring pulsating high-gradient magnetic separator, with a maximum feed particle size of 6 mm, a magnetic field strength of 954-1194KA / m, a rotating ring speed of 2-4 rpm, and a pulsation frequency of 40-80 times / min.

[0018] Preferably, in step S5, the grinding operation adopts a wet ball mill, and the grinding fineness is -0.076mm80%~95%; the fine-grained wet strong magnetic roughing and fine-grained wet strong magnetic sweeping both adopt a fine-grained pulsating high-gradient magnetic separator, the roughing magnetic field strength is 0.8~1.2T, and the roughing magnetic field strength is 1.0~1.4T.

[0019] Preferably, in step S6, the reagent system for reverse flotation roughing is: NaOH dosage 800-1200g / t flotation feed, CaO dosage 200-400g / t flotation feed, starch dosage 800-1200g / t flotation feed, sodium oleate dosage 1000-1500g / t flotation feed; the reagent system for reverse flotation cleaning is: sodium oleate dosage 500-1000g / t flotation feed; no reagent is added in the reverse flotation scavenging operation.

[0020] In addition, in step S6, the reagent system for reverse flotation roughing can also be: NaOH dosage 500-800g / t flotation feed, starch dosage 500-800g / t flotation feed, collector dosage 300g / t-600g / t; the reagent system for reverse flotation fine selection is: collector dosage 100-250g / t flotation feed; the reagent system for reverse flotation fine selection is: collector dosage 120g / t-200g / t flotation feed; reverse flotation sweeping operation does not add reagents. The collector is made of dodecylamine and glacial acetic acid solution in a mass ratio of 4:0.9-4:1.1 and heated at 80-100°C hot water.

[0021] In addition, in order to further realize the resource utilization of tailings and reduce the final discharge of fine tailings, the photoelectric intelligent pre-selection tailings and jigging pre-selection tailings discharged in step S2 are sold as building aggregate products; in this case, the dry strong magnetic tailings discharged from step S2 and the wet strong magnetic tailings discharged from step S3 are combined and then fed into dry screening and wet screening in turn to obtain

[0022] There are three particle sizes of tailings: +4.75mm, 0.5-4.75mm, and -0.5mm. The +4.75mm tailings are sold as construction aggregate products, and the 0.5-4.75mm particle size tailings are sold as construction sand products; the reverse flotation sweeping tailings discharged from step S6 are combined with the -0.5mm particle size tailings discharged from step S4 to form the final fine-grained tailings.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the ore dressing method of the refractory iron ore containing symbiotic hematite and siderite of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] (1) The combined pre-selection process of the present invention can achieve precise classification, and organically integrates different pre-selection methods and pre-selection equipment, so as to achieve effective pre-selection of all particle sizes of weakly magnetic and difficult-to-select iron ore under wide particle size (0-100 mm) conditions, wherein: 6-15 mm particle size is pre-selected by dry strong magnetic separator, 15-40 mm particle size is pre-selected by large block jig, 40-100 mm particle size is pre-selected by photoelectric intelligent separator, and 0-6 mm particle size is pre-selected by coarse wet strong magnetic separator. The present invention organically integrates multiple pre-selection methods (magnetic separation, gravity separation, photoelectric separation), so as to achieve effective pre-selection of all particle sizes of weakly magnetic iron ore under wide particle size (0-100 mm) conditions, and solves the problem of narrow effective pre-selection particle size of traditional single pre-selection method, and greatly improves the sorting accuracy. Finally, the iron grade of the final pre-selected concentrate is more than 9 percentage points higher than the iron grade of the selected weakly magnetic and difficult-to-select iron ore.

[0025] (2) The combined pre-selection process of the present invention adopts different pre-selection methods according to the characteristics of ores of different particle sizes, which can give full play to the performance of various pre-selection equipment and effectively improve the sorting effect. For example, the present invention adopts photoelectric intelligent pre-selection for large pieces of ore of 40 to 100 mm, which solves the problem that if strong magnetic pre-selection is used for this particle size, the centrifugal force on the mineral is much greater than the magnetic force, resulting in a significantly low metal recovery rate. At the same time, since photoelectric intelligent pre-selection requires a single layer of cloth, photoelectric intelligent pre-selection is used for large pieces of ore of 40 to 100 mm, which also effectively improves the hourly processing capacity of photoelectric intelligent pre-selection. For another example, for fine particles of 0 to 6 mm, because of its fine particle size and easy agglomeration, the effect of dry strong magnetic pre-selection is very poor. Therefore, the present invention uses a coarse-grained wet strong magnetic separator for wet strong magnetic pre-selection.

[0026] (3) The combined pre-selection process of the present invention adopts intelligent pre-selection and jigging pre-selection to discard large pieces of tailings, achieving the purpose of "discarding as early as possible", thereby effectively reducing the energy consumption of subsequent crushing. At the same time, the concentrates obtained by intelligent pre-selection and jigging pre-selection are crushed again and then wet strong magnetic pre-selection is used to discard tailings, which further increases the amount of tailings discarded and also improves the grade of the final pre-selected concentrate.

[0027] (4) Compared with the traditional single pre-selection process, the combined pre-selection process of the present invention has the advantages of large selected particle size, wide particle size, large tailings discarding amount, high concentrate grade and low energy consumption.

[0028] (5) Compared with the traditional single pre-selection process, the combined pre-selection process of the present invention has the advantages of large selected particle size, wide particle size, large tailing amount, low energy consumption, etc., and the tailing yield is as high as more than 33%.

[0029] (6) The final pre-selected tailings are fed into dry screening in sequence, and finally +4.75mm building aggregate products, 0.5-4.75mm building sand products, and -0.5mm particle size are obtained.

[0030] (7) The present invention adopts a pure physical mineral processing process of grinding-strong magnetic separation-reverse flotation to obtain qualified concentrate for pre-selected concentrate. Compared with the traditional roasting-magnetic separation process of siderite and limonite, it has the advantages of low production cost, low energy consumption, and less environmental pollution.

[0031] (8) In addition, the photoelectric intelligent pre-selection tailings and jigging pre-selection tailings discharged by the method of the present invention are sold as building aggregate products; the dry strong magnetic tailings discharged in step S2 and the wet strong magnetic tailings discharged in step S3 are combined and successively fed into dry screening and wet screening to obtain building aggregate products with a particle size of +4.75 mm and building sand products with a particle size of 0.5-4.75 mm, respectively, thereby greatly improving resource utilization. The yield of the obtained building aggregate products - jigging pre-selection tailings, photoelectric intelligent pre-selection tailings, +4.75 mm tailings and 0.5-4.75 mm building sand products accounts for more than 28% of the selected original ore.
