Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mineral analysis, and particularly to a method for detecting heavy metals in phosphate rock based on ultrafine samples and miniaturized experiments. Background Art

[0002] Phosphate rock is an important chemical raw material, widely used in industries such as phosphate fertilizers, medicine, food, ceramics, and national defense. With the development of the national economy, the demand for phosphate rock is increasing. To better utilize phosphate rock resources, it is imperative to accurately and rapidly determine the heavy metal content in phosphate rock.

[0003] In existing methods for detecting heavy metals in phosphate rock, the phosphate rock sample is preliminarily crushed and then dissolved in aqua regia, and then compared with the standard curves of various elements for determination. Although this traditional method can achieve the detection of heavy metals in phosphate rock, it has the disadvantages of large sample weighing, large reagent consumption, and long digestion time, resulting in high production costs and long detection time. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for detecting heavy metals in phosphate rock based on ultrafine samples and miniaturized experiments, which solves the problems of high production costs and long detection time in the traditional method for detecting heavy metal content in phosphate rock.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides a method for detecting heavy metals in phosphate rock based on ultrafine samples and miniaturized experiments, including the following steps:

[0006] Make the phosphate rock into a sample, and take a certain amount to make an ultrafine powder sample;

[0007] Adopt miniaturized technology to completely digest the ultrafine powder sample;

[0008] After complete digestion, use an inductively coupled plasma spectrometer and mass spectrometer to determine the heavy metal content in the phosphate rock.

[0009] Among them, making the phosphate rock into a sample and taking a certain amount to make an ultrafine powder sample, the specific steps include:

[0010] Dry the phosphate rock at 105 °C for more than 2 hours to obtain a preliminary sample with a water content of less than 0.5%;

[0011] Gradually grind the preliminary sample through a jaw crusher, a pair-roll crusher, and a vibration mill to make a dry phosphate rock sample;

[0012] Adopt the quartering method to reduce the dry phosphate rock sample to 10 g to obtain a sample.

[0013] Among them, in gradually grinding the preliminary sample through a jaw crusher, a pair-roll crusher, and a vibration mill to make a dry phosphate rock sample, the particle size of the dry phosphate rock sample is 120 mesh.

[0014] Among them, the phosphate rock is made into a sample, and a certain amount is taken to make an ultrafine powder sample. The specific steps include:

[0015] Weigh 7.00 ± 0.02 g of the sample and put it into the grinding tray of a high-speed planetary ultrafine grinding machine. Among them, add 20 tungsten carbide balls of 5 mm and 30 tungsten carbide balls of 3 mm to each grinding tray in a tungsten carbide tank, tighten the tank lid, rotate at a speed of 1000 r / min for 4.0 min to obtain an ultrafine powder sample.

[0016] Among them, when the phosphate rock is made into a sample and a certain amount is taken to make an ultrafine powder sample:

[0017] The fineness of the ultrafine powder sample is on average below 10 μm.

[0018] Among them, using the miniaturization technology, the ultrafine powder sample is completely digested. The specific steps include:

[0019] Weigh 0.1 g of the ultrafine powder sample and put it into a 300 ml tall beaker, add 10 ml of water, 3 ml of hydrochloric acid and 1 ml of nitric acid, cover it with a watch glass, boil it on an electric furnace, then place it on a hot plate to keep it gently boiling for 10 min, take it off and transfer it to a 100 ml volumetric flask, and make the volume constant with primary distilled water. Then pour the liquid in the volumetric flask into a 50 ml beaker with a double-layer slow quantitative filter paper for filtration.

[0020] Among them, when using the miniaturization technology to completely digest the ultrafine powder sample:

[0021] The water is primary distilled water, the hydrochloric acid is GR grade concentrated hydrochloric acid, and the nitric acid is GR grade concentrated nitric acid.

[0022] Among them, after complete digestion, an inductively coupled plasma spectrometer and mass spectrometer are used to determine the heavy metal content in the phosphate rock. The specific steps are as follows:

[0023] Take the heavy metal element standard solution, and prepare solutions with concentrations of 0, 0.25, 2.5, and 5.0 mg / L respectively. Then, take 0, 1, 10, and 20 mL of the above solutions and place them in a 250 mL volumetric flask, and make the volume constant with 10% hydrochloric acid and distilled water to make the pH value of the solution 6.0. Prepare a standard series solution. Then put the standard series solution into the inductively coupled plasma spectrometer and mass spectrometer in turn to construct a heavy metal element standard curve; then detect the ultrafine powder sample, and calculate the content of heavy metal elements in the sample according to the detection results and the standard curve.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: By superfine processing the phosphate rock sample and combining with microscale experimental techniques, the particle size of the phosphate rock is reduced (large particles disappear) and becomes more uniform, the specific surface area increases, the sample is more easily digested, the dosage of hazardous waste chemical reagents is greatly reduced, costs are saved, energy consumption is reduced, and the digestion time is shortened. While directly reducing the usage amount of chemical drugs, it also indirectly reduces the treatment amount of chemical experimental pollutants (three wastes), reduces the exposure amount of experimental personnel in a toxic chemical environment, achieves the purpose of obtaining a large amount of experimental data with extremely small amounts of reagents in microscale chemical experiments, enables a large number of experiments to be completed at low cost and in a short time. The development of superfine sample preparation and microscale analysis techniques is an important way for the analysis laboratory to save energy, reduce emissions (chemical pollutants), and achieve "environmental friendliness". It is applicable to phosphate rocks from different origins. A large number of statistical results show that there is no significant difference between the experimental results and the traditional method, and it has broad promotion and utilization value.

[0029] The following will describe in detail the embodiments of the present invention. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , wherein, Figure 1 It is a step diagram of the method for detecting heavy metals in phosphate rock based on superfine samples and microscale experiments of the present invention. Figure 2 It is a flowchart of the method for detecting heavy metals in phosphate rock based on superfine samples and microscale experiments of the present invention.

[0031] The present invention provides a method for detecting heavy metals in phosphate rock based on superfine samples and microscale experiments, including the following steps:

[0032] S101: Make the phosphate rock into a sample, and take a certain amount to make a superfine powder sample;

[0033] Specifically, the phosphate rock sample is dried at 105 °C for more than 2 hours to obtain a preliminary sample with a water content of less than 0.5%. Subsequently, it is ground step by step through a jaw crusher, a pair-roll crusher, and a vibrating mill to produce a dry phosphate rock sample that all passes through 120 mesh (125 um). Using the quartering method or a sample splitter, the dry phosphate rock sample is reduced to about 10 g, and then 7.00 ± 0.02 g of the sample is weighed and placed in the grinding tray of a high-speed planetary ultra-fine grinding machine (this model has multiple grinding trays). 20 tungsten carbide balls of 5 mm and 30 tungsten carbide balls of 3 mm are added to each grinding tray in a tungsten carbide tank (the steel balls and the tank are provided by the machine). The tank lid is tightened, the rotation speed is 1000 r / min, and the action time is 4.0 min to obtain an ultra-fine powder sample. At this moment, the fineness of the ultra-fine powder sample can reach below 10 um on average (about 800 mesh, laser particle size analyzer), and it is taken out and placed in a No. 5 self-sealing bag for standby.

[0034] S102: Using miniaturization technology, completely digest the ultra-fine powder sample;

[0035] Specifically, weigh 0.1000 g of the ultra-fine sample and put it into a 300 ml tall-form beaker. Add 10 ml of water (primary distilled water), 3 ml of hydrochloric acid (concentrated, GR grade), and 1 ml of nitric acid (concentrated, GR grade). Cover with a watch glass, boil on an electric furnace, and keep slightly boiling on a hot plate for 10 min. Then transfer it to a 100 ml volumetric flask and make up the volume (primary distilled water). The liquid in the volumetric flask is poured into a 50 ml beaker with a double-layer slow quantitative filter paper for dry filtration. When there is 30 to 40 ml of the filtrate in the beaker, it is measured by an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry and mass spectrometry (ICP-AES / MS). It realizes 1 / 10 of the traditional sample weighing amount, 1 / 5 of the traditional aqua regia usage amount, and 1 / 3 of the traditional digestion time.

[0036] S103: After complete digestion, use an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry and mass spectrometry to measure the heavy metal content in the phosphate rock.

[0037] Specifically, when using an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry and mass spectrometry (ICP-AES / MS), a mixed standard solution is prepared by proportioning with a heavy metal national standard substance (liquid). For example, when measuring the content of 9 heavy metals (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Zn) in phosphate rock, it is measured according to the instrument operation procedures, and the values of 9 heavy metal elements in the phosphate rock can be obtained within 3 min. The selection of the standard substance is shown in Table 1.

[0043] For example, for chromium (GSB 04-1728-2004), solutions with concentrations of 0, 0.25, 2.5, and 5.0 mg / L were prepared respectively. Then, 0, 1, 10, and 20 mL of the above solutions were respectively taken and placed in a 250 mL volumetric flask, and made up to the mark with 10% hydrochloric acid and distilled water to make the pH value of the solution 6.0, thus preparing the standard series solutions. The standard series solutions were successively put into an inductively coupled plasma spectrometer and mass spectrometer to construct the standard curve of heavy metal elements; then the ultrafine powder sample was detected, and the content of heavy metal elements in the sample was calculated according to the detection results and the standard curve.

Subsequently, the sample was ground step by step through a jaw crusher, a pair-roll crusher, and a vibration mill to make a dry phosphorus ore sample that all passed through 120 mesh (125 um). Weigh 1.000 - 5.000 g of the dry phosphorus ore sample and put it into a 500 ml tall-form beaker, add 30 ml of water, 15 ml of hydrochloric acid and 5 ml of nitric acid, cover with a watch glass, boil on an electric furnace, then place it on a hot plate to keep slightly boiling for 30 min, let it stand and cool slightly (near room temperature), redissolve, and then place it on the hot plate to keep slightly boiling for 10 min and then take it off, transfer it to a 100 ml volumetric flask and make up to the mark (with primary distilled water). The liquid in the volumetric flask was poured into a 50 ml beaker with a double-layer slow quantitative filter paper for filtration. When there was 30 - 40 ml of filtrate in the beaker, the heavy metal content was determined by inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy (ICP-AES), mass spectrometer (ICP-MS), and atomic absorption spectrometer.
