Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of diversified utilization of non-ferrous metal solid waste, and particularly relates to a converter vanadium slag gypsum negative pressure roasting circulating process. BACKGROUND

[0002] Vanadium is known as "modern industrial vitamin", and is an indispensable strategic resource for developing modern industry, national defense and new energy technology, and is widely used in the fields of steel, aerospace, chemical industry, medical treatment and energy storage. With the rapid development of electrochemical energy storage industry, vanadium flow battery has the advantages of large capacity, high efficiency and good safety, and is widely used in the fields of new energy power generation and smart grid construction, so vanadium has become a necessity for long-term stable new energy storage industry, and is known as "new energy storage metal". Converter vanadium slag is the product extracted from vanadium molten iron in the converter steelmaking process, and contains rich vanadium elements, which is one of the important vanadium resources in China. At present, the sodium roasting vanadium extraction process is the most mature vanadium extraction process in industry. However, a large amount of sodium-containing wastewater and waste gas will be produced in the sodium roasting process, and the waste gas contains harmful gases such as HCl and Cl2, which causes serious pollution to the environment. Compared with sodium roasting, calcium roasting can effectively reduce the emission of harmful gases and alkaline tailings, and is a clean process that can replace the traditional sodium vanadium extraction process, but the calcium roasting has problems such as high roasting temperature, high energy consumption and low vanadium extraction efficiency. Therefore, the "gypsum negative pressure roasting calcium vanadium extraction" technology is developed to effectively reduce the energy consumption of vanadium extraction, desulfurization gypsum consumption and high-quality vanadium sulfate oxide short process preparation.

[0003] Publication No. CN113998735B discloses a method for producing vanadium sulfate oxide battery electrolyte by using vanadium-containing acid leaching solution. The method needs to add a reducing agent to the vanadium-containing acid leaching solution for reduction reaction, and after the reaction is completed, the pH is adjusted to 1.5-4.0, and the extraction circulation process is carried out. This method reduces the preparation of intermediate product vanadium pentoxide, but needs to add a reducing agent for reduction and then extract to prepare vanadium sulfate oxide, which increases the cost. Therefore, a method for directly preparing vanadium sulfate oxide by negative pressure roasting of converter vanadium slag is proposed. SUMMARY

Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention can be understood more clearly and thoroughly, and that the scope of the present invention can be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 This embodiment provides a negative pressure roasting and circulation process for vanadium slag gypsum in a converter, the method including:

[0033] 1) The raw materials are mixed in proportion and then roasted under negative pressure to obtain calcified slag and sulfur dioxide. The raw materials include converter vanadium slag and industrial waste gypsum.

[0034] In step 1), industrial waste gypsum includes one or more of desulfurized gypsum, phosphogypsum, fluorogypsum, and citric acid gypsum;

[0035] Industrial waste gypsum and converter vanadium slag are mixed at a ratio of n(CaSO4) / n(V2O3) of 0.2-5.0, and calcined at a vacuum of 0.01-1 atm and a temperature of 400-900℃ for 0.5-4 hours to obtain calcified slag and sulfur dioxide.

[0036] The sulfur dioxide obtained from the negative pressure roasting is used in two ways: firstly, as a reducing agent, it reacts with the vanadium component in the filtrate obtained after pH adjustment to reduce high-valence vanadium to VOCs. 2- The amount of sulfur dioxide added for this portion is: sulfur dioxide: VO (based on the stoichiometric coefficients of the reduction chemical reaction) 2+ (1:2~1.5:2) is added, and the remaining part is used as raw material for sulfuric acid preparation. The obtained sulfuric acid is used to supplement the sulfuric acid used for acid leaching of calcified slag.

[0037] The reaction equation is:

[0038] 2) Leach the calcified slag with a leaching agent, and at the same time add sulfur dioxide to the calcified slag to replenish it, so as to obtain vanadium-containing leachate and leaching slag.

[0039] In step 2), sulfuric acid is used as the leaching agent to leach the calcified slag. The leaching temperature is 20-100℃ and the leaching time is 30-180 min, resulting in a vanadium-containing leachate and leaching slag.

[0040] 3) Adjust the pH value of the vanadium-containing leachate to obtain filtrate and CaSO4; wherein the CaSO4 is recovered and used as the raw material in step 1).

[0041] 4) Pass the sulfur dioxide from step 1) into the filtrate to reduce pentavalent vanadium to tetravalent vanadium;

[0042] Sulfur dioxide was introduced into the vanadium-containing leaching solution at a flow rate of 0.5-5 L / min to ensure sufficient contact and reaction between the sulfur dioxide and the vanadium-containing leaching solution. The reduction reaction lasted for 0.5-3 hours, reducing pentavalent vanadium to tetravalent vanadium. The progress of the reduction reaction was determined by detecting the change in the valence state of vanadium in the reaction system.

[0043] 5) Extract the filtrate with an organic extractant to obtain an organic phase and an aqueous phase loaded with vanadium. Then, back-extract the organic phase with sulfuric acid to obtain vanadium oxysulfate and raffinate. The raffinate is recovered and used as the leaching agent in step 2).

The volume ratio of the organic phase to the aqueous phase is between 1:1 and 5:1, and the number of extraction stages is 3-10. Multiple extractions achieve efficient separation of vanadium from impurity elements. After extraction, a 1-5 mol / L sulfuric acid solution is used for back-extraction at a temperature of 25-50℃ for 15-60 minutes to obtain vanadium oxysulfate electrolyte. The purity of the prepared vanadium oxysulfate electrolyte is tested using chemical analysis, spectral analysis, and other methods to detect the vanadium content and impurity element content in the crystals, ensuring that the product meets the relevant standards for vanadium oxysulfate electrolyte and has a purity of over 99%.

[0045] The organic extractant is one or both of P204 and P507;

[0046] Wastewater, waste residue, and other waste generated during the entire preparation process must be treated to render them harmless. Wastewater is treated through processes such as neutralization, sedimentation, and filtration to meet discharge standards before being discharged. Waste residue is comprehensively utilized or safely landfilled, thus achieving a green and environmentally friendly entire preparation process.
