Description

Technical Field

[0002] The bauxite ore resources in China are 5.2 billion tons, with a reserve of 676 million tons, accounting for 2.2% globally. The domestic alumina output in 2024 was 85.522 million tons, accounting for more than 58% of the global output. High-quality bauxite ore resources are becoming increasingly depleted. With the gradual scarcity of high-quality bauxite ore resources, China's dependence on imported bauxite ore has increased sharply, and the external dependence in 2023 has reached as high as more than 68%. Domestic bauxite ore is characterized by high aluminum, high silicon, and low aluminum-silicon ratio. At the same time, with the rapid development of technology and increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements, the high-quality and efficient utilization of bauxite ore resources has become extremely urgent.

In the context of the continuous decline in the grade of domestic bauxite ore resources and resource tension, the conventional flotation desilication technology is no longer suitable due to the above problems, and it is urgent to iterate the beneficiation and impurity removal process of bauxite ore.

[0034] Figure 1 It is a schematic flow chart of a dry gravity separation method for treating high-silica bauxite provided for the embodiments of the present application.

[0035] As Figure 1 shown, the present application provides a dry gravity separation method for treating high-silica bauxite, and the method includes:

[0036] S1. Classify the raw ore once to obtain a first coarse-grained ore and a first fine-grained ore;

[0037] In some embodiments, the raw ore satisfies the following conditions: Al 2 O 3 mass fraction ≥ 45.00%, SiO 2 mass fraction ≥ 20.00%, A / S ≤ 3, particle size ≤ 50 mm.

[0038] In some embodiments, the particle size of the first coarse-grained ore is -50 + 20 mm, and the particle size of the first fine-grained ore is -20 mm.

[0039] The useful mineral in the raw ore is diaspore, and the gangue minerals are kaolinite, illite, pyrophyllite and quartz.

[0040] In some embodiments, the primary classification is carried out by dry screening and classification using a straight-line screen.

[0041] S2. Carry out vibrating feeding and optoelectronic separation on the first coarse-grained ore for pretreatment to obtain pre-concentrate and pre-tailings;

[0042] In some embodiments, a vibrating feeder is used for vibrating feeding. The vibration frequency of the vibrating feeder is 25 Hz, and the discharge end of the vibrating feeder is a conical discharge port.

[0043] The discharge end of the vibrating feeder is a conical discharge port to ensure that the ore can be laid flat on the optoelectronic separator one by one.

[0044] In some embodiments, an XRT optoelectronic separator is used for optoelectronic separation. The optoelectronic separation adopts X-ray projection separation technology, and the light source intensity of the optoelectronic separation is 80 kV to 100 kV.

[0045] In some embodiments, in the optoelectronic separation technology, the separation threshold f is 10,000 ± 200; where

[0046] When f ≥ 10,000, pre-tailings are obtained by separation;

[0047] When f < 10,000, pre-concentrate is obtained by separation.

[0048] Since there is a certain density difference between aluminum minerals and silicon minerals, when separating by X-ray penetration technology, the attenuation degrees of X-rays are different, so that aluminum minerals and silicon minerals are separated. In this embodiment, the light source intensity used by the XRT optoelectronic separator is 80 - 100 kV. This is mainly because ores with different particle sizes will affect the penetrability of X-rays. If the particle size of the ore is large and the light source intensity is insufficient to cause the ore to be penetrated by X-rays, the separation effect will be reduced; at the same time, the setting of the separation threshold f (gray value) will also affect the optoelectronic separation effect. Exemplarily, the light source intensity of the optoelectronic separation can be 80 kV, 85 kV, 90 kV, 95 kV, 100 kV, etc.

[0049] S3. Combine the first fine-grained ore and the pre-tailings for crushing and secondary classification to obtain a second coarse-grained ore and a second fine-grained ore;

[0050] In some embodiments, the equipment used for crushing is a high-pressure roller crusher, and the crushing particle size is 3 mm.

[0051] In some embodiments, the equipment used for the secondary classification is a combination of a straight-line screen and a high-frequency laminated vibrating screen.

[0052] In some embodiments, the particle size of the second coarse-grained ore is -3 + 0.15 mm, and the particle size of the second fine-grained material is -0.15 mm.

[0053] S4. Wind-separate the second coarse-grained ore to obtain coarse-grained concentrate and coarse-grained tailings;

[0054] In some embodiments, the wind separation uses a wind jigger, and the wind jigger meets the following conditions: the air flow velocity is 2.0 m / s to 2.5 m / s, the vibration frequency is 300 times / min to 400 times / min, the amplitude is 5 mm to 8 mm, and the bed layer thickness is 80 mm to 100 mm.

[0055] The air flow velocity is limited to 2.0 m / s to 2.5 m / s. The air flow velocity determines the suspension and stratification effects of the particles. If it is too high, both light and heavy minerals will be blown away. If it is too low, the particles cannot be effectively stratified, affecting the separation effect. The vibration frequency is limited to 300 times / min to 400 times / min, and the amplitude is 5 mm to 8 mm. The vibration frequency and amplitude control the jumping height of the particles and the looseness of the bed layer. For ores with different particle sizes, low frequency is suitable for coarse-grained separation, and high frequency is suitable for fine-grained separation. The bed layer thickness is limited to 80 mm to 100 mm. The bed layer thickness affects the separation time and stratification effect. If it is too thick, it is easy to cause incomplete stratification, affecting the separation effect. Exemplarily, the air flow velocity of the wind jigger can be 2.0 m / s, 2.1 m / s, 2.2 m / s, 2.3 m / s, 2.4 m / s, 2.5 m / s, etc., the vibration frequency can be 300 times / min, 320 times / min, 340 times / min, 360 times / min, 380 times / min, 400 times / min, etc., the amplitude can be 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, etc., and the bed layer thickness can be 80 mm, 85 mm, 90 mm, 95 mm, 100 mm, etc.

[0056] S5. Electrically separate the second fine-grained ore to obtain fine-grained concentrate and fine-grained tailings;

[0057] In some embodiments, the electric separation uses a drum-type electrostatic separator, and the number of times of the electric separation is ≥2 times.

[0058] In some embodiments, the drum-type electrostatic separator meets the following conditions: the motor polarity is a negative corona electrode, the voltage is 20 kV to 35 kV, the motor spacing is 60 mm to 80 mm, and the drum rotation speed is 90 rpm to 130 rpm.

[0059] The motor polarity of the drum-type electrostatic separator is a negative corona electrode, and the voltage is controlled at 20 - 35 kV. This is mainly because the conductivity of diaspore is better than that of silicon minerals, and medium to high voltage is required to enhance the polarization adsorption of non-conductive impurities and at the same time avoid excessive charging and detachment of aluminum minerals. Limiting the electrode spacing of the drum-type electrostatic separator to 60 - 80 mm can balance the electric field strength and discharge stability and strengthen the polarization effect on silicon minerals; limiting the drum rotation speed to 90 - 130 rpm can extend the separation time to ensure sufficient adsorption of silicon minerals and at the same time avoid aluminum minerals from being mixed into the tailings due to excessive centrifugal force. Exemplarily, the voltage can be 20 kV, 25 kV, 30 kV, 32 kV, 35 kV, etc., the motor spacing can be 60 mm, 65 mm, 70 mm, 75 mm, 80 mm, etc., and the drum rotation speed can be 90 rpm, 100 rpm, 110 rpm, 120 rpm, 130 rpm, etc.

[0060] S6. Combine the coarse-grained concentrate, the fine-grained concentrate, and the pretreated concentrate into a concentrate; and

[0061] S7. Combine the coarse-grained tailings and the fine-grained tailings into tailings.

[0062] A dry gravity separation method for treating high-silica bauxite provided by an embodiment of the present application can effectively separate silicon minerals and aluminum minerals in bauxite, reduce production costs, improve the ore grade, and realize the efficient and high-value utilization of bauxite resources, having significant social and economic benefits.

[0063] In summary, a dry gravity separation method for treating high-silica bauxite provided by an embodiment of the present application has the following specific advantages:

[0064] (1) Environmental protection and energy saving of the dry separation process: The entire process adopts dry separation (such as linear screen classification, XRT optoelectronic separation, air jigs separation, etc.), avoiding the dependence on water in the traditional ore washing method, reducing wastewater discharge and environmental pollution. At the same time, the high-pressure roll crusher (crushing the particle size to 3 mm) combined with the classification and feeding strategy reduces the energy consumption in the grinding process, and the cost per ton of ore is reduced compared with the traditional flotation process. In addition, the conical discharge port design of the vibrating feeder ensures that the ore is laid flat, reducing the risk of dust generation during optoelectronic separation, meeting the requirements of green mines.

[0065] (2) Synergistic enhancement of multi-stage separation technology: The XRT optoelectronic separator (light source intensity 80 - 100 kV) accurately removes siliceous waste rocks (such as kaolinite and quartz) based on the density difference between aluminum and silicon minerals, improving the aluminum-silicon ratio of the pre-selected concentrate in the coarse particle size fraction. Meanwhile, for the fine particle size fraction, combined wind-electric separation is carried out. The air jig (airflow 2.0 - 2.5 m / s, vibration frequency 300 - 400 times / min) realizes density stratification of -3 + 0.15 mm particle size ore through the combined action of airflow and vibration, separating coarse particle size aluminum minerals from silicon minerals. In addition, the drum-type electrostatic separator (voltage 20 - 35 kV, drum rotation speed 90 - 130 rpm) utilizes the conductivity difference between diaspore and silicon minerals to enhance the polarization adsorption of fine particle size (-0.15 mm) silicon minerals, improving the purity of the concentrate.

[0066] (3) Fine-tuning of process parameters to improve separation efficiency: Set the separation threshold f = 10000 ± 200, and accurately identify aluminum and silicon minerals through the difference in X-ray attenuation degree, significantly reducing the subsequent processing load. Meanwhile, the negative corona electrode and medium-high voltage (20 - 35 kV) of the electrostatic separator parameters enhance the polarization of silicon minerals while avoiding excessive charging of aluminum minerals, improving the recovery rate of aluminum concentrate.

[0067] (4) Improvement of resource utilization rate and economic benefits: Primary classification of the raw ore (-50 + 20 mm coarse particle size fraction, -20 mm fine particle size fraction) reduces ineffective crushing. Combined with secondary classification (-3 + 0.15 mm, -0.15 mm), it realizes fine-grained separation of particle size, reducing energy consumption. The pre-selected tailings are crushed and incorporated into the secondary separation process to maximize the recovery of aluminum resources and reduce the tailings discharge. Meanwhile, dry separation eliminates the costs of flotation reagents and wet dewatering, and the comprehensive processing cost per ton of ore is lower than that of the traditional flotation method.

[0068] (5) Technical compatibility and industrialization potential: Equipment such as linear screens, XRT optoelectronic separators, and air jigs are all mature industrial equipment, which are easy to integrate into existing production lines and suitable for large-scale promotion. Meanwhile, this treatment method is designed for low-grade (A / S ≤ 3), high-silicon (SiO 2 ≥ 20%) bauxite, and can process raw ore containing complex gangue minerals (such as kaolinite and pyrophyllite), expanding the scope of resource utilization.

[0103] The contents of the concentrate and tailings of Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were measured, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0104] Table 1 Contents of the raw ore, concentrate, and tailings of Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6

[0105]

[0106]

[0107] From the data comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that by changing the particle size of the raw ore, due to insufficient X-ray light source intensity, the X-ray will not be able to penetrate the ore due to insufficient energy, and then aluminum minerals will be misjudged as silicon minerals, thus affecting the effect of optoelectronic separation; at the same time, due to the too large particle size of the raw ore, the poor dissociation degree of the ore will also affect the separation effect.

[0108] From the data comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that by changing the classification particle size of the coarse and fine particle sizes and increasing the particle sizes of the wind jigs and the drum type electrostatic separator, it directly affects the final concentrate and tailings indexes. The main reason is that the embedding relationship between aluminum minerals and silicon minerals in bauxite is complex and the embedding particle size is relatively fine. Under the condition of a relatively coarse particle size, the minerals are not fully dissociated, the aluminum-silicon ratio of the tailings is relatively high, and the aluminum-silicon ratio of the concentrate is relatively low during the separation process, directly affecting the separation effect.

[0109] From the data comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 3, it can be seen that increasing the air flow velocity and bed layer thickness will directly affect the final concentrate and tailings indexes. This is mainly because too large an air flow velocity will cause both light and heavy minerals to be blown away, affecting the separation effect; too large a bed layer thickness will cause incomplete stratification of light and heavy minerals, affecting the separation effect.

[0110] From the data comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 4, it can be seen that increasing the vibration frequency and amplitude affects the separation indexes of concentrate and tailings. This is mainly because too large an air flow velocity will cause both light and heavy minerals to be blown away, affecting the separation effect; too large a bed layer thickness will cause incomplete stratification of light and heavy minerals, affecting the separation effect.

[0111] From the data comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 5, it can be seen that increasing the electrostatic separation voltage affects the separation indexes of concentrate and tailings. This is mainly because when the voltage is too high, aluminum minerals will be overcharged and adsorbed into the tailings, affecting the separation effect.

[0112] From the data comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 6, it can be seen that increasing the drum rotation speed will affect the separation indexes of concentrate and tailings. This is mainly because after the drum rotation speed increases, aluminum minerals will be subjected to a greater centrifugal force and adhere to the drum and finally fall into the tailings, thus affecting the separation effect.

[0113] In addition, one or more technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application at least further have the following technical effects or advantages:
