Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of titanium metallurgical solid waste utilization, and relates to a method for separating SiO2 and TiO2 from titanium metallurgical molten salt chloride slag by air oxidation-physical precipitation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Xinjiang is rich in vanadium-titanium magnetite resources, but the ore composition is complex, the grade is low (TiO2 < 10%), and the calcium and magnesium content in the titanium ore is high (MgO + CaO ≥ 7%). The molten salt chlorination process is used to prepare titanium tetrachloride as a raw material for sponge titanium production, realizing the high added value conversion of titanium resources. Due to the composition of the titanium ore and the characteristics of the molten salt chlorination process, 20,000 tons of chloride salt slag will be produced each year (calculated based on 10% of the titanium tetrachloride output). For a titanium tetrachloride plant with an annual output of 200,000 tons of titanium tetrachloride, more than 20,000 tons of waste salt will be discharged annually. In addition to NaCl, the solid waste also includes CaCl2, MgCl2, FeCl3, SiO2, SiCl4, AlCl3, etc. The main components of the waste salt are shown in Table 1:

[0004] NaCl <![CDATA[CaCl2]]> <![CDATA[MgCl2]]> <![CDATA[SiO2]]> <![CDATA[FeCl3]]> <![CDATA[MnCl2]]> <![CDATA[AlCl3]]> <![CDATA[SiCl4]]> 51.37 4.75 17.3 10.55 4.15 4.23 2.45 5.17

[0005] At present, the common disposal method adopted at home and abroad is filling cooling-crushing-lime mixing and landfilling in professional slag fields. More than 80% of its components are soluble metal chlorides. This treatment method is relatively extensive and no valuable components are recycled. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned prior art and to propose a method for separating SiO2 and TiO2 from titanium metallurgical molten salt chloride slag by air oxidation-physical precipitation method and its application.

[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] The present invention discloses a method for separating SiO2 and TiO2 from titanium metallurgical molten salt chloride slag by precipitation using an air oxidation-physical method. The molten salt chloride slag solution contains MgCl2 and CaCl2, comprising the following steps:

[0009] Step 1: A specified amount of molten salt chloride slag solution is kept warm for the first time at a first specific temperature. During the first holding period, compressed air is introduced into the molten salt chloride slag solution to expel volatile components and allow SiO2 fine particles to nucleate, precipitate, and grow on the surfaces of heterogeneous crystal nuclei of TiO2 particles and solid carbon particles to form SiO2 aggregate particles.

[0010] Step 2: The molten salt chloride slag solution is kept warm for a second time at a second specific temperature to precipitate SiO2 polymer particles, and the molten salt chloride slag solution is filtered to reduce the content of SiO2 polymer particles in the molten salt chloride slag solution;

[0011] Step 3: Adding a solidifying agent to the molten salt chloride slag solution to remove MgCl2 and CaCl2;

[0012] Step 4: Sodium chloride solution, SiO2 concentrate, TiO2 concentrate and coke powder particle raw materials are separated by combining water dissolution method and gravity separation method.

[0013] Specifically, the present invention uses air oxidation to treat the low-valent silicon element in the molten salt chloride slag solution. Simultaneously, the principles of concentration diffusion and pressure diffusion are utilized to remove volatile components such as MnCl2, MnCl3, FeCl2, FeCl3, AlCl3, and SiCl4 from the molten salt chloride slag solution. Furthermore, heterogeneous nucleation is employed to promote the nucleation of fine SiO2 particles in the molten salt chloride slag solution and their gradual growth. Large SiO2 particles, however, will settle and stratify due to density differences, ultimately settling at the bottom of the salt tank. This process lays the foundation for the subsequent development of a chemical solidification process to remove CaCl2 and MgCl2 from waste salt. This process significantly reduces the amount of curing agent required to remove CaCl2 and MgCl2 during the chemical solidification process, significantly reducing the cost of solidifying and regenerating waste salt, ultimately achieving comprehensive resource utilization and improving the quality and efficiency of the industry.

[0014] It should be noted that, in step one: during the insulation period, compressed air is introduced into the molten salt chloride slag solution through a steel pipe, and the compressed air forms diffuse and evenly distributed bubbles in the molten salt chloride slag solution, and absorbs volatile components in the molten salt chloride slag solution through the principles of concentration diffusion and pressure diffusion. The volatile components include MnCl2, MnCl3, FeCl2, FeCl3, AlCl3, SiCl4 and a small amount of TiCl4, so that the volatile components are discharged with the air and enter the alkali solution absorption tank to absorb the volatile components; in step two: the salt solution is filtered through a 10ppi-400ppi ceramic plate, and the SiO2 content in the filtrate is reduced from more than 10% to less than 0.8%.

[0015] It should be noted that in the molten salt chloride slag solution, silicon in the form of divalent silicon or trivalent silicon oxides associates with sodium, calcium, magnesium and other ions to form a liquid sol, which cannot be directly precipitated and separated. The oxygen component in the compressed air reacts with low-valent silicon, making low-valent silicon [SiO2] + 、[SiO] 2+Oxidized into fine SiO2, the fine SiO2 uses TiO2 and solid carbon particles as heterogeneous crystal nuclei, allowing SiO2 to nucleate, precipitate and grow on the surface of the heterogeneous crystal nuclei of TiO2 and solid carbon particles with higher melting points, forming SiO2 polymer particles, which are salt-containing SiO2.

[0016] Furthermore, in the step 1, the first specific temperature is 400° C. to 650° C., and the first insulation time is 0.5 h to 72 h.

[0017] Specifically, the first specific temperature can be 400℃, 450℃, 500℃, 550℃, 600℃, or 650℃, which can be adjusted according to time requirements; the first insulation time can be 0.5h, 10h, 20h, 30h, 40h, 50h, 60h, 70h, or 72h, which can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0018] Furthermore, in the step 1, the air intake pressure of the compressed air introduced into the molten salt chloride slag solution is 0.05 MPa-5 MPa, and the air intake time is 0.5 h to 72 h.

[0019] The intake pressure can be 0.05Mpa, 1Mpa, 2Mpa, 3Mpa, 4Mpa, 5Mpa, which can be adjusted according to actual needs; the intake time can be 0.5h, 1h, 10h, 20h, 30h, 40h, 50h, 60h, 70h, 72h.

[0020] Furthermore, the volatile components in step 1 include MnCl2, MnCl3, FeCl2, FeCl3, AlCl3, SiCl4 and TiCl4.

[0021] Specifically, the separation method provided by the present invention uses compressed air to form dispersed and evenly distributed bubbles in the molten salt chloride slag solution, and absorbs volatile components in the molten salt chloride slag solution through the principles of concentration diffusion and pressure diffusion. The volatile components include MnCl2, MnCl3, FeCl2, FeCl3, AlCl3, SiCl4 and a small amount of TiCl4. The volatile components are discharged with the air and absorbed by the alkali solution absorption tank.

[0022] Furthermore, in the step 1, the specified amount of molten salt chloride slag solution is kept warm at the first specific temperature by first pouring the specified amount of molten salt chloride slag solution into a slag pot, and placing the slag pot into a heat preservation device for heat preservation.

[0023] Specifically, the molten salt chloride slag discharged from the chlorination furnace is measured by an electronic scale, a fixed amount of the molten salt chloride slag is poured into a molten salt chloride slag insulation slag pot, and the slag pot is placed in the insulation furnace and kept warm for a certain period of time.

[0024] Furthermore, the slag pot is made of carbon steel or stainless steel.

[0025] Specifically, the slag pot is made of one of Q235, Q245R, 310S or 1Cr18Ni9Ti; or, the furnace lining is made of a composite material of two of Q235, Q245R, 310S, and 1Cr18Ni9Ti; or, the outer lining is made of one of the metal materials Q235, Q245R, 310S or 1Cr18Ni9Ti, and the inner lining is carbon bricks.

[0026] Furthermore, in the step 2, the second specific temperature is 700° C. to 930° C., and the second insulation time is 0.3 h to 5 h.

[0027] Furthermore, the curing agent is sodium sulfate, sodium aluminate, sodium silicate, sodium carbonate or sodium hydroxide.

[0028] Specifically, the curing agent can be a mixture of one or more of sodium sulfate, sodium aluminate, sodium silicate, sodium carbonate, and sodium hydroxide, and the specific curing agent can be selected according to actual needs.

[0029] The present invention also provides a method for separating SiO2 and TiO2 from titanium metallurgical molten salt chloride slag by precipitation using an air oxidation-physical method, and the application of the method in separating chloride slag.

[0030] Specifically, SiO2, TiO2 and some coke powder particles are enriched in the filter residue, and through water-soluble and gravity separation, sodium chloride solution, SiO2 concentrate, TiO2 concentrate and coke powder particle raw materials are obtained respectively. The sodium chloride solution is sent to the chlor-alkali chemical industry, the SiO2 concentrate is used as a refractory material or a raw material for producing polysilicon, the TiO2 concentrate is returned to the chlorination furnace or used as a raw material for sulfuric acid titanium dioxide, and the coke powder particles are used as a raw material for chlorination reducing agent.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0032] 1. The present invention uses air oxidation to treat low-valent silicon elements in a molten salt chloride slag solution; at the same time, the principles of concentration diffusion and pressure diffusion are utilized to remove volatile components such as MnCl2, MnCl3, FeCl2, FeCl3, AlCl3, and SiCl4 in the molten salt chloride slag solution.

[0033] 2. The separation method provided by this invention utilizes heterogeneous nucleation to promote the nucleation and growth of fine SiO2 particles in the molten salt chloride slag solution. Large SiO2 particles, however, settle and stratify due to density differences, ultimately settling at the bottom of the salt tank, facilitating separation. This approach lays the foundation for the subsequent development of chemical solidification processes for the removal of CaCl2 and MgCl2 from waste salt.

[0034] 3. The separation method provided by the present invention can significantly reduce the amount of curing agent required to remove CaCl2 and MgCl2 during the chemical curing process through this treatment process, thereby greatly reducing the cost of waste salt curing and regeneration, and ultimately achieving comprehensive utilization of resources and improving the quality and efficiency of the industry.
