Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pyrolusite beneficiation, and in particular to a weak magnetic separation-reverse flotation process of pyrolusite based on hydrogen-based ore phase transformation. Background Art

[0002] Pyrolusite is an important mineral resource, widely used in the fields of steel, chemical industry and battery. However, since pyrolusite usually coexists with gangue minerals such as siliceous aluminum gangue and hematite, its mineral composition is complex and its particle size is fine, resulting in many technical challenges in the process of mineral processing and smelting. Traditional roasting and mineral processing processes have high energy consumption and heavy pollution, which are difficult to meet the requirements of modern green mining development. Traditional reduction processes such as wet reduction and dry reduction also have significant defects. Wet reduction usually consumes a lot of acid and is highly corrosive, accompanied by the generation of a large amount of heavy metal-containing waste liquid, which is difficult to treat and puts serious pressure on the environment; while dry reduction has high energy consumption and harsh operating conditions, and mineral oxidation and magnetic reduction are prone to occur during roasting, which limits the separation efficiency. In addition, the high carbon emissions, metal volatilization losses and waste gas and wastewater emissions during roasting and reduction have aggravated environmental pressure and production costs. It is difficult for existing technologies to achieve both green environmental protection and economic efficiency while improving resource utilization efficiency. In order to meet the above challenges, it is urgent to develop a new process that is efficient, energy-saving and environmentally friendly to achieve efficient and clean utilization of pyrolusite resources and promote the development of manganese ore beneficiation in a green and sustainable direction.

[0003] Patent CN110129589 A relates to a method for preparing manganese sulfate solution by reducing roasting and leaching of pyrolusite, in which manganese dioxide is converted into manganese sulfate solution by low-temperature roasting and acid leaching, which is used to prepare manganese-based materials and is combined with waste electrolyte to reduce costs. The method has simple equipment and low processing cost. However, it requires the consumption of high-concentration sulfuric acid, the equipment is highly corrosive, and the carbon powder used for roasting increases carbon emissions, which has high environmental pressure and energy consumption; Patent CN 102861674 B relates to a method for improving the grade of pyrolusite by pre-treating it with silicate bacteria and then flotation, and proposes to grind the pyrolusite ore and then pre-treat it with silicate bacteria, and then reverse flotation. This patent can achieve the separation of manganese and iron and gangue minerals to a certain extent, but the bacterial leaching treatment cycle is long, the process conditions are harsh, it is difficult to deal with complex pyrolusite ores, and there are shortcomings such as insufficient separation of iron and manganese minerals. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the existing manganese ore dressing technology, the present invention provides a weak magnetic separation-reverse flotation process for complex pyrolusite based on hydrogen-based ore phase transformation. The invention mainly includes five steps: ceramic ball stirring mill grinding, hydrogen-based ore phase transformation, protective gas cooling, weak magnetic separation and reverse flotation, so as to achieve the precise ore phase transformation of pyrolusite from MnO2 to MnO and the deep separation from iron-silicon-aluminum gangue minerals.

The ore material corresponds to the ceramic ball mill ore slurry, which is dried to obtain the roasting raw material.

[0007] Step 2: Hydrogen-based mineral phase transformation: The roasted raw materials obtained in step 1 are placed in a suspension roasting furnace for hydrogen-based mineral phase transformation suspension roasting. Pyrolusite is transformed into weakly magnetic and acid-soluble schistose, and quartz undergoes lattice transformation from α·SiO2 to β·SiO2, thereby obtaining a mineral phase transformation product.

[0008] Step 3: Cooling with protective gas: introducing protective gas to cool the mineral phase transformation product to obtain a cooled product; the protective gas can prevent the mineral phase transformation product from being reoxidized.

[0009] Step 4: Weak magnetic separation: The cooled product is subjected to weak magnetic separation to obtain magnetic concentrate and magnetic tailings.

[0010] Step 5: Reverse flotation separation: reverse flotation is performed on the magnetic concentrate to obtain manganese concentrate.

[0011] Furthermore, in step 1, the concentration of the ceramic ball mill slurry is 30% to 50%.

[0012] Further, in step 2, the mineral phase transformation equation is as follows: MnO2+H2→MnO+H2O, α·SiO2→β·SiO2;

[0013] Furthermore, in step 2, the suspension roasting temperature is 600°C to 800°C, and the roasting gas flow rate at room temperature and pressure is 1200m / ton of roasting raw material. 3 / h-1600m 3 / h, the roasting gas is a mixed gas of hydrogen and nitrogen, wherein the hydrogen gas concentration is 10% to 30%, the suspension roasting time is 20min to 40min, and the reducing gas is hydrogen.

[0014] Furthermore, in step 3, the cooling environment is a nitrogen or inert gas atmosphere, the cooling time is 5 min-15 min, and the cooling product temperature is ≤70°C.

[0015] Furthermore, in step 4, the weak magnetic separation magnetic field strength is 1400Oe to 3200Oe, and the manganese concentrate and gangue minerals are preliminarily separated.

[0016] Furthermore, in step 5, reverse flotation of the magnetic concentrate means that the magnetic concentrate is made into reverse flotation pulp and then enters the reverse flotation operation, and the reverse flotation operation includes 1 stage of roughing, 1 to 2 stages of concentrating and 2 to 5 stages of scavenging operations; a pH adjuster, a combined collector (ZA) and an inhibitor are added to the reverse flotation pulp to enter the roughing operation; after the roughing operation is completed, a roughing concentrate pulp and a roughing tailings pulp are obtained; the roughing tailings pulp is subjected to a scavenging operation without the addition of a collector, and gangue minerals are separated after the scavenging operation is completed; a pH adjuster and a combined collector ZA are added to the roughing concentrate pulp, and the concentrating operation is entered to make the silicon-aluminum gangue minerals adsorb the collector to achieve reverse flotation, and a manganese concentrate is obtained after the concentrating operation is completed.

[0017] Furthermore, in step 5, the pH adjuster includes sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid, the combined collector (ZA) is a mixture of sodium oleate and octadecyltrimethylammonium chloride in a mass ratio of 3:1 to 10:1, and the inhibitor includes sodium hexametaphosphate.

[0018] Further, in step 5, the reverse flotation pulp concentration is 35wt% to 55wt% when entering the roughing operation; the materials added to each ton of reverse flotation pulp are as follows: sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid are added to make the reverse flotation pulp pH = 8.8 to 9.2; the combined collector ZA is used in an amount of 100g to 800g, and the inhibitor sodium hexametaphosphate is used in an amount of 100g to 1000g;

[0019] When entering the concentration operation, a pH adjuster is added to the roughing concentrate slurry to adjust the pH to pH = 8.8-9.2, and 20g-200g of combined collector ZA is added per ton of roughing concentrate slurry.

[0020] Furthermore, in step 5, the grade of the obtained manganese concentrate is higher than 50%, and the manganese recovery rate is higher than 85%.

[0022] 1.

[0023] 2. The present invention adopts suspension roasting technology to transform the pyrolusite into a hydrogen-based ore phase. While being green and environmentally friendly, it not only transforms the acid- and alkali-insoluble pyrolusite into the weakly magnetic and acid-soluble quartzite, but also provides a guarantee for the subsequent magnetic separation.

[0024] 3. The present invention adopts protective gas cooling and introduces inert gas to cool the material, which effectively prevents the natural oxidation of the newly formed quartzite in an oxidizing atmosphere, increases the content of divalent manganese in the reduced product, and successfully establishes a cooling and anti-oxidation mechanism.

[0025] 4. The present invention adopts the combined collector ZA to deeply remove the silicon aluminum gangue minerals, and further strengthens the agent's effect on Si through the combined synergy between molecules and the electrostatic adsorption between anions and cations. 2+ The binding capacity of active sites has a better capture effect on gangue minerals, and the obtained manganese concentrate can be used as a raw material for high-activity leaching electrolytic manganese.

[0026] 5. The present invention converts pyrolusite into a highly active manganese concentrate that is easy to leach and electrolyze through hydrogen-based ore phase conversion-weak magnetic separation-reverse flotation technology, which saves the amount of reagents used in the next leaching process, and uses hydrogen reduction to effectively reduce carbon emissions, thereby achieving clean and efficient utilization of pyrolusite resources.

[0058] Comparative Example 1

[0059] Compared with Example 1, the difference is that step 3 does not use protective gas cooling, only air cooling is used, and the remaining steps are the same as Example 1. In step 3, the conversion rate of manganese ore is only 51%, and the grade and recovery rate of manganese concentrate in step 5 are only 44.32% and 68.34%, respectively. The possible reason is that divalent manganese is oxidized to high-valent manganese during the cooling process, and its magnetic properties and surface properties change, thereby reducing the iron-manganese separation in the magnetic separation process and the adsorption effect of the flotation agent in the flotation process.

[0060] Comparative Example 2

[0061] Compared with Example 2, the difference is that step 4 does not use the new collector used in the present invention, but only uses the conventional flotation collector sodium oleate, and the remaining steps are the same as Example 2. Step 5 The manganese concentrate grade is only 41.21%, and a large amount of silicon-containing gangue minerals enter the concentrate.
