Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of extracting valuable elements from copper anode mud, and more particularly to a method for removing copper and extracting selenium from copper anode mud. Background Art
[0002] Copper anode slime is a key byproduct of copper electrolytic refining. Containing copper, selenium, gold, silver, and platinum group metals, it is considered an important secondary source for the recovery of valuable metals. To efficiently recover precious metals and platinum group metals from anode slime, it requires pretreatment to remove impurities, particularly copper and selenium.
[0003] Currently, methods for separating copper and selenium from copper anode slime are primarily categorized into two types: pyrolysis (sulfation or oxidative roasting) and hydrolysis. One prior art method uses a rotary kiln to roast copper anode slime to separate selenium. Selenium exists in the flue gas as selenium dioxide, while copper remains in the roasted sand. However, this method is poorly adaptable to the raw materials and generates large amounts of flue gas, including highly toxic gases such as selenium dioxide, which seriously pollute the environment. Furthermore, subsequent copper removal from the roasted sand and absorption of selenium dioxide require water, generating significant amounts of wastewater.
[0004] The wet separation method mainly uses acid / alkaline leaching, redox and other methods to leach impurities such as copper and selenium from the slag phase to the liquid phase and then separate them from the liquid in sequence. A technical method has proposed a fully wet method for the efficient separation and recovery of copper, selenium and tellurium from copper anode mud. This method extracts tellurium, selenium and copper step by step through sulfide leaching - oxygen pressure alkaline leaching - acid leaching - reduction - extraction. However, this method will also precipitate some silver ions in the form of silver sulfite during reduction and deselenization, resulting in the loss of metallic silver. At the same time, the use of oxygen pressure alkaline leaching has high requirements for equipment and is prone to severe corrosion. The entire process is long, and the cost of treating the waste liquid generated in the intermediate process is high.
[0005] There is also a technology that separates selenium through screening and washing-alkaline pressure oxidation leaching, and then recovers copper through sulfuric acid leaching. However, the reaction conditions of this method are relatively harsh, and copper and selenium separation can only be achieved at a higher temperature, which consumes a lot of energy.
[0006] The above methods all achieve separation of elements such as copper and selenium through multiple step-by-step extractions, which require long process flows, large amounts of reagents, and high equipment requirements. Therefore, these methods are technical problems that urgently need to be solved in this field.
[0007] Chinese Patent Document 1 (Application No.: 202310257119.6, Application Date: 2023.03.08) discloses a valuable metal recovery process based on Fenton reagent oxidation leaching of copper anode mud, comprising the following steps: (1) adding a quantitative amount of Fe 0The powder is continuously stirred in a mixture of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide is quantitatively introduced to perform advanced oxidation leaching. After the leaching is completed, a first leachate and a first gold-rich leach residue are obtained; (2) chloride is added to the first leachate, and after precipitation and filtration, a second leachate and a second silver-rich leach residue are obtained; (3) sulfite is added to the second leachate, and after reaction, selenium, tellurium products and a third leachate are obtained; sodium thiosulfate is added to the second silver-rich leach residue to complex silver, and electrolytic recovery is obtained to obtain refined silver, and the liquid after electrolytic recovery is reused to complex the second silver-rich leach residue; (4) the third leachate is electrolytically recovered to obtain refined copper. In this scheme, Fenton's reagent is used as an oxidant, new ions are introduced in the separation process, and the separation is carried out in multiple steps, which still does not solve the above-mentioned problems. Summary of the Invention
