Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of phosphate ore dressing, and in particular relates to a method for utilizing return water of collophane ore refloatation combined ore dressing. Background Art

[0002] In the industrial production of collophanite, how to effectively realize the utilization of return water is closely related to the amount of new water used in the dressing plant and the quality of the mineral processing technical indicators, as well as the storage capacity pressure and environmental protection issues of the tailings pond. The separation process of collophanite is generally direct and reverse flotation and double reverse flotation. The wastewater of the reverse flotation concentrate in the direct and reverse flotation process has no adverse effect on the reverse flotation process, on the contrary, it can also reduce the use of mixed acid. However, if the wastewater of the reverse flotation concentrate and the wastewater of the tailings pond are directly returned to the direct flotation process, it will cause instability of the direct flotation process, deterioration of the mineral processing indicators, and increase in the consumption of mineral processing reagents. In the double reverse flotation process, the return water from the de-magnesium section and the dealuminization section is inconsistent in the residual reagents, pH value, COD content, suspended particles, etc. in the water. If it is not separately treated and reused, it will directly lead to problems such as sticky flotation foam, poor stability of the flotation process, and reduced flotation concentrate indicators. The return water from double reverse flotation needs to be fully treated before it can be reused. There are many types of return water treatment reagents, and the return water reuse plan is complicated and lengthy.

[0003] CN111167610A discloses a reverse flotation method for calcium-silicon. The technical scheme is that after the raw ore is ground, a flotation process is adopted in which reverse flotation is first used for magnesium removal and then for silicon removal by forward flotation. The reverse flotation return water enters the reverse flotation return water tank and then returns to the reverse flotation for magnesium removal. The forward flotation return water enters the forward flotation return water tank and then returns to the forward flotation for silicon removal. The surplus forward flotation return water is fed into the reverse flotation return water tank for reverse flotation. The invention realizes the full reuse of wastewater to a certain extent, but the sorting process is too long, the types of return water treatment agents used are many, and the return water utilization scheme is complicated.

[0004] CN112237993B discloses a method for recycling wastewater from the double reverse flotation process of collophanite. The technical scheme is as follows: after removing silicate minerals from the collophanite, tailings and coarse concentrate are obtained. The tailings enter a tailings thickener for thickening and filtration, and a reagent is added to the tailings thickener to treat the return water before reuse; the coarse concentrate enters an intermediate thickener for thickening and then enters thickening and filtration, and a reagent is added to the intermediate thickener to treat the return water before reuse; the filter cake of the coarse concentrate is subjected to reverse flotation again after pulping to remove carbonate minerals, so as to obtain tailings and concentrate slurry, and the tailings are thickened and filtered by a tailings thickener; the concentrate slurry is thickened and filtered by a concentrate thickener, and a reagent is added to the concentrate thickener to treat the return water before reuse. This method has created a scientific and economical industrial implementation plan for the wastewater quality recycling of double reverse flotation of collophanite. However, the three types of return water in this plan have inconsistent properties. Not only do they need to be treated separately for recycling, but they also need to be treated completely before they can be reused. There are many types of return water treatment agents and the return water reuse plan is complicated. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for utilizing the return water of the refloatation combined beneficiation of collophanite. The method for utilizing the return water of the refloatation combined beneficiation of collophanite described in the present invention is to find a process that can reduce the amount of return water that needs to be processed in the utilization of the return water for separating the collophanite from the impurities magnesium and aluminum contained therein, so as to realize the full-process return water reuse without affecting the separation index of the collophanite for removing the impurities magnesium and aluminum, greatly simplify the return water treatment scheme, reduce the return water treatment utilization cost, and the return water treatment agent is montmorillonite, which has a wide source and is cheap.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for utilizing the return water of the refloating combined beneficiation of collophanite, the method comprising the steps of refloating combined beneficiation of collophanite and utilizing the return water, specifically comprising: A. Refloatation combined beneficiation of collophanite: after grinding and classification, the collophanite is introduced into the reverse flotation de-magnesiumization process, and the adjusting agent I and the de-magnesiumization collector are added in sequence to obtain the de-magnesiumized concentrate a and the de-magnesiumized tailings b; the de-magnesiumized concentrate a enters the gravity separation to obtain the gravity separation concentrate c and the gravity separation tailings d; the gravity separation concentrate c is introduced into the gravity concentration reverse flotation dealumination process, and the dealumination collector is added to obtain the phosphate concentrate e and tailings f; the gravity separation tailings d is introduced into the heavy tailing reverse flotation dealumination process, and the adjusting agent II and the dealumination collector are added in sequence to obtain the phosphate concentrate g and tailings h.

[0007] B. Backwater reuse: (1) Direct reuse of return water: The return water obtained by collecting the de-magnesiumized tailings b, phosphate concentrate e, tailings f and phosphate concentrate g and concentrating and filtering them respectively enters the No. 1 return water tank and then directly returns to the grinding, reverse flotation de-magnesiumization process, gravity separation, gravity concentration reverse flotation dealuminization process for reuse; (2) Return water treatment and reuse: The return water obtained by collecting the tailings h and thickening and filtering enters the No. 2 return water tank, and then is treated with montmorillonite and returned to the heavy tailings reverse flotation dealuminization process for reuse.

[0008] In the above scheme, adjusting agent I is added during the reverse flotation demagnesium process, and the adjusting agent I is a mixture of phosphoric acid and raffinate acid in a mass ratio of 3:1-1:1. Phosphoric acid and raffinate acid are industrial-grade products. The P2O5 content in phosphoric acid is 20 wt%-42 wt%, and the P2O5 content in raffinate acid is 20 wt%-38 wt%.

[0009] In the above scheme, the addition amount of adjusting agent I is 6-10kg / t phosphate slurry dry basis.

[0010] In the above scheme, an adjusting agent II is added in the heavy tail reverse flotation dealumination process, and the adjusting agent II is composed of the following components in percentage by mass: 60-80% aluminum sulfate, 5-15% polyethylene glycol, and 5-15% cationic starch flocculant, and the sum of the percentages by mass of the components is 100%.

[0011] In the above scheme, the preparation process of the cationic starch flocculant is as follows: Step 1. After the corn starch is gelatinized at high temperature and cooled to room temperature, nitrogen is introduced, and then an initiator ammonium cerium nitrate and DMC are added dropwise to react to obtain grafted starch; Step 2. Add 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTA) dropwise into a NaOH solution in an ice water bath, and stir to prepare an etherifying agent GTA; Step 3. Add the grafted starch obtained in step 1 to the ethanol solution, add the etherifying agent GTA obtained in step 2 dropwise at 50-70°C with stirring, then slowly add NaOH as a catalyst, and react at a constant temperature for 3-6 h to obtain the cationic starch flocculant.

[0012] In step 1, the mass ratio of corn starch to dimethyl carbonate DMC is 1:0.8-1:1.2, and the added amount of ammonium cerium nitrate is 0.06-0.12% of the mass of corn starch.

[0013] In step 2, the molar ratio of NaOH (5-10 mol·L-1) solution to 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride is 2.5-3:1.

[0014] The mass ratio of grafted starch to etherifying agent GTA in step 3 is 1:0.6-1:1.2. In the above scheme, the amount of adjusting agent II added is 2-4 kg / t dry basis of phosphate slurry.

[0015] In the above scheme, the montmorillonite is a mixture of calcium montmorillonite and sodium montmorillonite in a mass percentage ratio of 3:1-1:1, and the addition amount is 1-3kg / ton of return water.

[0016] In the above scheme, the direct reuse of return water refers to the return water that does not need to be treated during the beneficiation process of collophanite before it can be used as mineral processing circulating water; the treated return water reuse refers to the return water that needs to be treated during the beneficiation process of collophanite before it can be used as mineral processing circulating water; the mass ratio of the direct reuse of return water to the treated return water reuse is 8:1-10:1.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The present invention adopts the combined re-flotation beneficiation technology to realize the separate flotation of high-grade coarse-grained gravity separation concentrate and low-grade fine-grained gravity separation tailings, thereby reducing the adverse effects of the inclusion of the two materials in the flotation pulp on flotation. During the flotation process, the low-grade fine-grained particles and the flotation reagent often form a three-phase stable state of gas, solid and liquid, which causes the foam produced during the flotation process to have high viscosity and be difficult to break, thereby affecting the flotation index and foam fluidity. The requirements for return water for the flotation of high-grade coarse-grained minerals are much lower than those for low-grade fine-grained minerals. Therefore, in the present invention, except for the dense and filtered water of the tailings obtained by the dealumination process of the low-grade fine-grained gravity separation tailings, which need to be treated before entering the mineral processing system for recycling due to their high content of residual reagents, COD content, and suspended particles, the other return water can be uniformly collected and directly reused. It effectively reduces the amount of return water that needs to be processed during the separation of collophanite and its impurities of magnesium and aluminum, realizes the full-process return water reuse without affecting the separation indicators of collophanite for removing impurities of magnesium and aluminum, greatly simplifies the return water treatment plan, and reduces the return water treatment and utilization cost.

[0018] (2) The present invention achieves dealumination flotation of fine-grained particles through the adjusting agent II, reduces the viscosity of the flotation foam, and greatly improves the fluidity of the foam. The mechanism of action of the adjusting agent in the present invention to adjust the foam can be roughly summarized as follows: first, the cationic starch flocculant compresses the electrical double layer of the fine-grained phosphate mineral particles, effectively reduces the repulsive force between the mineral particles, and can capture organic suspended impurities in the water and treat organic and inorganic substances with floating points in the water; second, after aluminum sulfate is added to the slurry, aluminum hydroxide floccules can be generated to adsorb a large number of fine-grained mineral particles; third, polyethylene glycol can assist in defoaming. Due to the synergistic effect of the cationic starch flocculant, aluminum sulfate and polyethylene glycol, the electronegativity of the fine-grained particles in the slurry system is greatly weakened, which weakens the effect of the fine-grained particles and the amine cationic collector, resulting in a decrease in the number of electronegative particles in the foam, a worsening of the foam toughness, and an improvement in fluidity.

[0019] (3) After the return water in the present invention is treated with montmorillonite, the residual reagents, COD content and suspended particle content in the return water can be further reduced, which can effectively eliminate the adverse effects of the return water on the mineral processing indicators and obtain high-quality phosphate concentrate. In addition, montmorillonite is widely available and inexpensive.

[0020] (4) The method of the present invention is simple, requires few types of reagents, and has low cost. It can realize the full reuse of the return water in the whole process, and does not affect the separation index of the impurities magnesium and aluminum in the collophanite, and has good social and economic benefits.

Backwater reuse: After collecting the de-magnesiumized tailings b, phosphate concentrate e, tailings f and phosphate concentrate g, tailings h and thickening and filtering the returned water into the return water pool, montmorillonite is added, and the amount of montmorillonite added is 1 kg / ton of returned water. After treatment, it is returned to the heavy tailings reverse flotation dealuminization process for reuse.

[0053] The obtained phosphate concentrate e has a phosphorus grade of 34% and a yield of 552%; the obtained phosphate concentrate g has a phosphorus grade of 30.5% and a yield of 15.4%. The flotation foam flows smoothly and the flotation indicators are ideal, but the return water treatment volume is large and the treatment cost is high.

[0054] Compared with the prior art, this specific implementation has the following positive effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1) The present invention adopts the re-flotation combined beneficiation technology to realize the separate flotation of high-grade coarse-grained gravity separation concentrate and low-grade fine-grained gravity separation tailings, reducing the adverse effects of the inclusion of the two materials in the flotation pulp on flotation. In the flotation process, the low-grade fine-grained particles and the flotation reagent often form a three-phase stable state of gas, solid and liquid, which causes the foam produced in the flotation process to have high viscosity and is not easy to break, thereby affecting the flotation index and foam fluidity, and the flotation of high-grade coarse-grained minerals has much lower requirements for return water than low-grade fine-grained minerals. Therefore, in the present invention, except for the dense and filtered water of the tailings obtained by the dealumination process of the low-grade fine-grained gravity separation tailings, which needs to be treated before entering the mineral processing system for recycling due to its high content of residual reagents, COD content, and suspended particles, the other return water can be uniformly collected and directly reused. It effectively reduces the amount of return water that needs to be processed during the separation of collophanite and its impurities of magnesium and aluminum, realizes the full-process return water reuse without affecting the separation indicators of collophanite for removing impurities of magnesium and aluminum, greatly simplifies the return water treatment plan, and reduces the return water treatment and utilization cost.

[0055] 2) The present invention realizes the dealumination flotation of fine-grained particles through the adjusting agent II, reduces the viscosity of the flotation foam, and greatly improves the fluidity of the foam. The mechanism of action of the adjusting agent in the present invention to adjust the foam can be roughly summarized as follows: first, the cationic starch flocculant compresses the electrical double layer of the fine-grained phosphate mineral particles, effectively reduces the repulsive force between the mineral particles, and can capture organic suspended impurities in the water, and treat organic and inorganic substances with floating points in the water; second, after aluminum sulfate is added to the slurry, aluminum hydroxide floccules can be generated to adsorb a large number of fine-grained mineral particles; third, polyethylene glycol can assist in defoaming. Due to the synergistic effect of the cationic starch flocculant, aluminum sulfate and polyethylene glycol, the electronegativity of the fine-grained particles in the slurry system is greatly weakened, and the effect of the fine-grained particles and the amine cationic collector is weakened, so that the electronegative particles in the foam are reduced, the foam toughness is worse, and the fluidity is improved.

[0056] 3) After the return water in the present invention is treated with montmorillonite, the residual reagents, COD content and suspended particle content in the return water can be further reduced, which can effectively eliminate the adverse effects of the return water on the mineral processing indicators and obtain high-quality phosphate concentrate. Montmorillonite is widely available and inexpensive.

[0057] 4) The method of the present invention is simple, requires few types of reagents, and has low cost. It can realize the full reuse of the return water in the whole process, and does not affect the separation index of the collophanite to remove the impurities of magnesium and aluminum, and has good social and economic benefits.
