[0040] Table 1 Detection results of acidified liquid of a high concentration cyanide wastewater

[0041]

[0042] The test results are used as the basis for calculation in step (2).

[0043] (2) Take 100 ml of the filtrate obtained in step (1) and place it in a reaction container. Add 10 g (excess) iron powder and concentrated sulfuric acid to maintain the pH of the reaction system at 2-3. Stir the reaction until the mixed gas overflows and observe the consumption of the iron powder.

[0044] The mixed gas overflowing from the stirring reaction is first passed into the 1# gas absorption bottle under stirring conditions, where the H2S and HCN gases are fully absorbed by the low-temperature soluble zinc salt weak acid solution to produce ZnS and Zn(CN)2 suspensions, and then passed into the 2# gas absorption bottle under stirring conditions to be further absorbed by the sodium hydroxide strong alkaline solution to ensure that the H2S and HCN gases that are not completely absorbed do not overflow.

[0045] The 1# gas absorption bottle contains 250 ml of low-temperature soluble zinc salt weak acid solution with a temperature of 0-10°C and a pH of 6.0-6.5; the 2# gas absorption bottle contains 250 ml of sodium hydroxide solution with a pH>11.

[0046] After stirring the reaction for 8 hours, no bubbles emerged from the gas absorption bottle, and the reaction was completed.

[0047] The theoretical amount of iron powder added is based on the following reaction equation and combined with SCN in Table 1 - The content is calculated and the result is about 47.74g / L:

[0048] Fe+SCN - +3H + →Fe 2+ +H2S↑+HCN↑.

[0049] The specific calculation process is as follows:

[0052] When preparing the low temperature soluble zinc salt weak acid solution, according to the following reaction equation, combined with SCN in Table 1 - Content and CN - The theoretical amount of ZnSO4·7H2O corresponding to the absorption of H2S and HCN gas overflowed from the acidified liquid filtration of a certain high-concentration cyanide-containing wastewater is calculated:

[0053] Fe+SCN - +3H + →Fe 2+ +H2S↑+HCN↑;

[0054] Zn 2+ +S 2- →ZnS↓;

[0055] Zn 2+ +2CN - →Zn(CN)2↓.

[0056] In this example, the amount of H2S and HCN gas overflowed from the acidified liquid filtration of 100 ml of the high-concentration cyanide-containing wastewater is 28.98 g / L and 23.02 g / L respectively; the theoretical amount of ZnSO4·7H2O corresponding to absorbing these H2S and HCN gases is about 36.8 g. The specific calculation process is as follows:

[0057] m H2S =M H2S m SCN / M SCN =34g / moL×49.44g / L÷58g / moL=28.98g / L.

[0058] In the formula, m H2S Indicates the amount of H2S gas overflowed from the acidification filtration of a high-concentration cyanide wastewater, in g / L; M H2S Indicates the relative molecular mass of H2S, unit: g / moL; m SCN Indicates SCN in acidified liquid of high concentration cyanide wastewater - Content, unit: g / L; M SCN SCN- Relative atomic mass unit is g / moL.

[0059] m HCN =M HCN m SCN / M SCN =27g / moL×49.44g / L÷58g / moL=23.02g / L.

[0060] In the formula, m HCN Indicates the amount of HCN gas overflowed from the acidification filtration of a high-concentration cyanide wastewater, in g / L; M HCN Indicates the relative molecular mass of HCN, unit: g / moL; m SCN Indicates SCN in acidified liquid of high concentration cyanide wastewater - Content, unit: g / L; M SCN SCN - Relative atomic mass, unit: g / moL.

[0061] m Zn =M Zn m SCN / M SCN +0.5 M Zn (m SCN / M SCN +m CN / M CN )=287g / moL×49.44g / L÷58g / moL+0.5×287g / moL×(49.44g / L÷58g / moL+0.25205g / L÷26g / moL)=368.35g / L.

[0062] In the formula, m Zn Indicates the theoretical amount of soluble zinc salt corresponding to the absorption of H2S and HCN gas, unit: g / L; M Zn Indicates the relative molecular mass of ZnSO4·7H2O, unit: g / moL; m SCN Indicates SCN in acidified liquid of high concentration cyanide wastewater - Content, unit: g / L; M SCN SCN - Relative atomic mass, unit: g / moL; m CN Indicates CN in the acidified liquid of high-concentration cyanide wastewater - Content, unit: g / L; M CN Indicates CN - Relative atomic mass, unit: g / moL.

[0063] Specifically, 250 ml of solution was prepared with clean water and 50 g (excess) ZnSO4·7H2O, and loaded into the 1# gas absorption bottle. The pH was stabilized at about 6.3 by adding concentrated sulfuric acid, and the solution temperature was measured to be 8°C. 250 ml of solution with a mass concentration of 30% was prepared with clean water and NaOH, and loaded into the 2# gas absorption bottle.

[0064] The reaction in the 1# gas absorption bottle yields a suspension of ZnS and Zn(CN)2.

[0065] (3) After the reaction is completed, the product in the reaction container is filtered to obtain residual iron powder and an iron ion solution as a filtrate, and the Fe concentration in the iron ion solution is measured to be 68.24 g / L. The residual iron powder is recycled in step (2); the pH of the iron ion solution is adjusted to above 11, filtered, and a filtrate and iron hydroxide residue are obtained; the filtrate is returned to the cyanide production system of the gold smelter to continue to be recycled as smelting water. The residue can be stored or sold for disposal.

[0066] Add concentrated sulfuric acid to the ZnS and Zn(CN)2 suspension in the 1# gas absorption bottle to adjust the pH to below 4, stir and react [Zn(CN)2 dissociates to form Zn 2+ and HCN gas] and use sodium hydroxide solution to absorb the overflowed HCN gas to achieve HCN recovery.

[0067] (4) Filter the suspension after the HCN gas overflows from step (3) to obtain ZnS filter residue and Zn as filtrate. 2+ Solution. Complete the absorption and separation of H2S and HCN mixed gas to achieve SCN - Decomposed S 2- and CN - of recycling.

[0068] Example 2. Example 2 of thiocyanate removal and comprehensive recovery method (II).

[0069] The only difference between this embodiment and embodiment (I) is that ZnCl2·4H2O is used instead of ZnSO4·7H2O.

[0070] The theoretical amount of soluble zinc salt corresponding to the absorption of H2S and HCN gas is calculated as follows:

[0071] m Zn =M Zn m SCN / M SCN +0.5 M Zn (m SCN / M SCN +m CN / MCN )=208g / moL×49.44g / L÷58g / moL+0.5×208g / moL×(49.44g / L÷58g / moL+0.25205g / L÷26g / moL)=266.96g / L.

[0072] The actual amount of ZnCl2·4H2O used is 40 g / L (excess). After the reaction in step (3) is completed, the product in the reaction container is filtered to obtain residual iron powder and an iron ion solution as a filtrate. The Fe concentration in the iron ion solution is measured to be 68.72 g / L.

[0073] Example 3: Is there S in the sodium hydroxide solution? 2- or CN - Detection example.

[0074] Purpose of detection: To determine whether the absorption is incomplete. If sulfide ions or cyanide ions are absorbed in bottle 2#, new sodium hydroxide solution should be replaced to determine whether the subsequent reaction absorption is complete.

[0075] During the reaction of step (2), detect whether there is S in the sodium hydroxide solution in the 2# gas absorption bottle. 2- or CN - , if there is S 2- or CN - , then the pH of the iron powder reduction reaction process can be appropriately increased to moderately reduce the reaction intensity, or the primary low-temperature soluble zinc salt weak acid solution absorption can be increased to enhance gas absorption. If there is no S 2- or CN - , then proceed to the next step.

[0076] The specific detection method is: take a sample of sodium hydroxide solution, add soluble ferrous salt or ferric salt, and a black precipitate is generated, indicating the presence of S 2- No black precipitate was generated, indicating that there was no S 2- ; After fully stirring, filter, adjust the filtrate to acidic, continue to add soluble ferrous salt or ferric salt, stir fully, and a blue precipitate is generated, indicating the presence of CN - No blue precipitate was generated, indicating the absence of CN - .

[0077] In the detection example of Example (I), 20 ml of sodium hydroxide solution in the 2# gas absorption bottle was taken, and a 10% FeSO4·7H2O solution was added dropwise. After sufficient stirring, it was filtered and a black FeS precipitate was generated, indicating that there was S in the solution. 2-, there is a problem that the H2S absorption in the 1# gas absorption bottle is not complete; after sufficient stirring, filter, adjust the filtrate to acidity, drop 10% FeSO4·7H2O solution, stir thoroughly, and a blue precipitate of ferric ferrocyanide or ferrous ferrocyanide is generated, indicating that there is CN in the solution - , there is a problem that the HCN absorption in the 1# gas absorption bottle is not complete. In this case, the pH of the iron powder reduction reaction process was raised to 3-4, and no S was found in the test again. 2- With CN - , indicating that H2S and HCN gases have been completely absorbed in the 1# gas absorption bottle.
