Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of comprehensive resource recycling technology, and in particular to a method for the resource recovery of thallium from desulfurized gypsum and a multi-stage washing and extraction device. Background Technology
[0002] Thallium is a highly toxic heavy metal that often occurs in non-ferrous metal sulfide ores and is released into the atmosphere during the smelting process. Lithium mica is one of the important lithium resources and is the most commonly used mineral raw material for lithium extraction. The sulfate roasting method is currently the most mainstream lithium extraction process, and the main auxiliary material used is expensive potassium sulfate. There is an urgent need to find efficient and economical auxiliary materials to replace potassium sulfate. The calcium and sulfur resources contained in desulfurized gypsum make it a potential substitute for potassium sulfate.
[0003] Traditional methods for removing thallium from flue gas mostly involve washing the flue gas with water to reduce thallium concentration in the water body, which is then treated in conjunction with the desulfurization process. However, this method of flue gas purification makes it difficult to remove thallium deeply, resulting in the desulfurization gypsum produced from the desulfurization process containing a certain concentration of thallium, which becomes hazardous waste that is difficult to sell or dispose of. This significantly increases the production costs of enterprises and wastes the calcium and sulfur resources in the desulfurization gypsum.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a resource recovery method for thallium in desulfurized gypsum and a multi-stage washing and extraction device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0044] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0045] The desulfurized gypsum and lepidolite used in this invention are sourced from Yichun City, Jiangxi Province, and the thallium ion concentration is 0.59 mg / L.
[0046] This invention provides a method for the resource recovery of thallium from desulfurized gypsum;
[0047] First embodiment: Please refer to the following: Figure 1 It includes the following steps;
[0048] Step S1: Mix the desulfurized gypsum and eluent in a certain proportion to prepare a mixture;
[0049] Step S2: The mixture is washed with water, and solid-liquid separation is performed to obtain washing liquid and detoxified residue;
[0050] Step S3: Recycle the washing solution, add sulfide to the washing solution with a thallium concentration higher than 20 mg / L, filter to obtain thallium sulfide; react thallium sulfide with dilute nitric acid to obtain thallium nitrate; or react thallium sulfide with dilute sulfuric acid to obtain thallium sulfate.
[0051] Step S4: The detoxified residue is mixed and ground with lepidolite and sodium sulfate and then roasted in a rotary kiln to obtain clinker. The clinker is then leached in water to obtain lithium-containing leachate.
[0052] The mass ratio of desulfurized gypsum to eluent in step S1 is (2-10):1. The eluent in step S1 is composed of a reducing agent and an alkali, and the mass ratio of reducing agent to alkali is (2-5):1. The reducing agent includes, but is not limited to, one or more of sodium sulfite, sodium sulfide, sodium dithionite, and thiourea, and the alkali includes, but is not limited to, one or more of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide.
[0053] The washing process in step S2 is a three-stage countercurrent elution, with a liquid-to-solid ratio of (0.8-10):1; a washing temperature of 60-80℃; and a washing time of 0.5-2 hours. Specifically, the three-stage countercurrent elution involves: first, the mixture undergoes a primary washing, using the same water as the secondary washing solution; after the primary washing, the mixture is dewatered using a primary plate and frame filter press for solid-liquid separation to obtain a primary clarified solution and a primary filter cake; the primary clarified solution is then processed in step S3; the primary filter cake undergoes a secondary washing... The secondary washing uses the same water as the tertiary washing solution. After the secondary washing, the filter cake is dehydrated and separated into a secondary clear liquid and a secondary filter cake by a secondary plate and frame filter press. The secondary clear liquid is discharged to the primary washing for recycling. The secondary filter cake is then subjected to a tertiary washing using industrial circulating water and evaporation condensate. After the tertiary washing, the filter cake is dehydrated and separated into a tertiary clear liquid and a tertiary filter cake by a tertiary plate and frame filter press. The tertiary clear liquid is discharged to the secondary washing for recycling, and the tertiary filter cake is processed in step S4.
[0054] The amount of sulfide added in step S3 is 1.05-1.3 times the molar amount of thallium in the washing solution. The concentration of dilute nitric acid or dilute sulfuric acid in step S3 is 0.5mol / L-1mol / L. The mass ratio of lepidolite, calcium sulfate, and sodium sulfate in the detoxified residue in step S4 is 6:(1-3):(1-3) based on the mass of calcium sulfate. The roasting temperature is 800-1000℃ and the roasting time is 0.5-2h. The liquid-solid ratio of the clinker during water immersion in step S4 is (1-5):1. The water immersion temperature is 25-80℃ and the water immersion time is 0.5-2h.

[0078] In actual use, multiple sets of heating tubes 10 can be set; the primary water washing tank 1 is connected to the external mixing material supply channel; the tertiary water washing tank 3 is connected to the external industrial circulating water tank and evaporation condensate tank; the top of the secondary water washing tank 2 and the tertiary water washing tank 3 are provided with openings for the filter cake to enter.
[0079] The working principle of the multi-stage elution device provided by this invention is as follows:
[0080] First, the mixture is fed into the primary washing tank 1, and the stirring motor 401 is started. The primary washing water in the primary washing tank 1 is the secondary washing liquid. The rotation of the stirring motor 401 drives the stirring blades 403 to rotate via the stirring shaft 402, thus washing and mixing the mixture and the secondary washing liquid. After washing, the feed pump 1101 is started, and the mixture is drawn out through the feed pipe 1102 and fed into the primary feed manifold 507 through the feed pipe 1103. At this time, the primary hydraulic cylinder 503 is started, which pushes several primary filter plates 506 through the primary clamping plate 504. The several primary filter plates 506 are pressed against the primary thrust plate 505 to form a... The sealed filter chamber receives feed from the primary feed main pipe 507. Under the secondary pressure of compressed gas input through the primary compression pipe 508, the liquid in the washed mixture passes through the capillary pores in the primary filter plate 506 and is discharged as primary clear liquid through the primary drain pipe 509. The primary clear liquid is discharged from the primary drain trough 804 into the recovery tank 12 and then proceeds to step S3 for processing. The solids in the mixture form a primary filter cake in the filter chamber. The primary hydraulic cylinder 503 stops working. After the operator opens the primary filter plate 506, the primary filter cake falls into the discharge trough 801 below the primary filter plate 506 and is then placed into the secondary washing tank 2 by the operator.
[0081] Then, the primary filter cake undergoes a second water wash. The water used for the second water wash is the tertiary wash liquid. The stirring mechanism 4 and the secondary plate and frame filter press 6 in the secondary water wash tank 2 repeat the above process to obtain secondary clear liquid and secondary filter cake. The secondary clear liquid is discharged through the secondary drain pipe 609 into the corresponding drain tank 804 and then into the recovery tank 12. After recovery, it enters the interior of the primary water wash tank 1. After the operator opens the secondary filter plate 606, the secondary filter cake falls into the discharge chute 801 below the secondary filter plate 606, and the operator puts the secondary filter cake into the tertiary water wash tank 3.
[0082] Then, the secondary filter cake undergoes three water washes. The tertiary water wash uses industrial circulating water and evaporation condensate. The stirring mechanism 4 and the tertiary plate and frame filter press 7 in the tertiary water washing tank 3 repeat the above process to obtain tertiary clear liquid and tertiary filter cake. The tertiary clear liquid is discharged through the tertiary drain pipe 709 into the corresponding drain tank 804 and then into the recovery tank 12. After recovery, it enters the interior of the secondary water washing tank 2. After the staff opens the tertiary filter plate 706, the tertiary filter cake falls into the discharge trough 801 below the tertiary filter plate 706. The staff then puts the tertiary filter cake into the filter cake box 14 for step S4 processing.
[0083] Finally, the heating tube 10 is used to heat the liquid in the primary water washing tank 1, the secondary water washing tank 2 and the tertiary water washing tank 3 to adjust to the corresponding water washing temperature.
[0084] Compared with related technologies, the multi-stage elution device provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0085] Solid-liquid separation is achieved by setting up a primary plate and frame filter press 5, a secondary plate and frame filter press 6, and a tertiary plate and frame filter press 7. The clear liquids from each stage are collected uniformly by the recovery tank 12. The separated liquids are gradually returned to achieve countercurrent reuse of the clear liquids to improve treatment efficiency and ensure that the thallium concentration is higher than 20 mg / L. The primary clear liquid then enters step S3 for treatment. The mixture undergoes three progressive water washings to gradually reduce the residual concentration and finally enters step S4 for treatment. By installing heating pipes 10 in the primary water washing tank 1, the secondary water washing tank 2, and the tertiary water washing tank 3, different water washing temperature requirements can be met.

The second embodiment is merely a preferred embodiment of the first embodiment, and the implementation of the second embodiment will not affect the separate implementation of the first embodiment.

The three clean water tanks 15 are all set on the ground and are equipped with water pumps to supply water to the clean water pipes 16.

The drive mechanism 9 includes a screw 901, an auxiliary rod 910, and a water collection tank 906. One end of the screw 901 is rotatably mounted on one side of the inner wall of the discharge trough 801, and the other end of the screw 901 is rotatably mounted on one side of the inner wall of the discharge trough 801 via a rotating frame. The screw 901 penetrates the inner wall of the discharge trough 801 and extends to the outside. A drive motor 902 is fixedly connected to the end of the screw 901 located outside the discharge trough 801. The drive motor 902 is fixedly mounted on one side of the discharge trough 801 through a housing. One end of the auxiliary rod 910 is rotatably mounted on one side of the inner wall of the discharge trough 801, and the other end of the auxiliary rod 910 is rotatably mounted on one side of the inner wall of the discharge trough 801 via a rotating frame. A drive plate 903 is threadedly connected to the surface of the screw 901. The interior of the drive plate 903 is slidably connected to the surface of the auxiliary rod 910. Abutment grooves 904 are fixedly installed on both sides of the discharge trough 801. The water collection tank 906 is located on the ground. The top of the water collection tank 906 is connected to a water collection trough 905 via a water pipe. The two abutment grooves 904 are respectively fitted and installed to the two ends of the water collection trough 905. The two drainage troughs 804 are respectively fitted and installed to the two abutment grooves 904. Connecting plates 907 are fixedly installed on both sides of the drive plate 903. A rotating plate 908 is rotatably installed at one end of each of the two connecting plates 907 via a pin. The two rotating plates 908 and the two connecting plates 907 are respectively fixedly connected by two springs 909. The lever plate 803 is fitted and installed to the rotating plate 908.
[0089] In actual use, the initial drainage end of the six drainage channels 804 is at the corresponding recycling tank 12.
[0090] The working principle of the multi-stage elution device provided in this embodiment is as follows:
[0091] When the filter cakes at each stage fall into the corresponding discharge trough 801, the corresponding drive mechanism 9 is activated. At this time, the drive motor 902 drives the screw 901 to rotate. The screw 901 is threadedly connected to the drive plate 903. The drive plate 903 pushes the filter cake to move. At this time, the clear liquid at each stage has been discharged. While the drive plate 903 is moving and pushing the filter cake, the rotating plate 908 contacts the deflector plate 803 and rotates clockwise. The spring 909 provides the support force. The deflector plate 803 drives the drainage trough 804 to rotate clockwise through the drainage trough shaft 802. After the drainage trough 804 contacts the abutment trough 904, the spring 909 is squeezed, and the rotating plate 908 rotates clockwise to disengage from the deflector plate 803. At this time, the center of gravity of the drainage trough 804 shifts to the abutment trough 904, and the water outlet changes to water outlet from the abutment trough 904. The drive plate 903 continues to move to complete the discharge of the filter cake.
[0092] After the outlet of the drain trough 804 is switched to the abutment trough 904, the corresponding clean water tank 15 is activated when the primary filter plate 506, secondary filter plate 606 and tertiary filter plate 706 need to be cleaned. The water pump in the clean water tank 15 supplies water to the clean water pipe 16. At this time, the feed pump 1101 does not work. Water is supplied from the feed pipe 1103 to the corresponding primary feed main pipe 507, secondary feed main pipe 607 and tertiary feed main pipe 707. The filter plates of each level are squeezed again, and the clean water flow washes the filter plates of each level. The cleaning liquid is then discharged from the corresponding primary drain pipe 509, secondary drain pipe 609 and tertiary drain pipe 709. The cleaning liquid flows from the drain trough 804 to the abutment trough 904 and into the water collection trough 905. The water collection trough 905 collects the liquid into the water collection tank 906. The cleaning liquid can be used for further purification.
[0093] After the above process is completed, the drive motor 902 reverses. At this time, the rotating plate 908 contacts the lever plate 803 again and drives it to rotate counterclockwise. When the drainage trough 804 contacts the abutment 805, the spring 909 stretches the rotating plate 908 to disengage from the lever plate 803. At this time, the drainage trough 804 is reset and ready for the next operation.
[0094] Compared with related technologies, the multi-stage elution device provided in this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:
[0095] After the filter cakes at each stage fall, the drive motor 902 is activated to move the drive plate 903, pushing out the filter cakes to complete the discharge. During the movement of the drive plate 903, the water outlet direction of the drainage trough 804 can be automatically switched. During the pushing process, the cleaning liquid is discharged from the abutment trough 904 and recycled to the water collection tank 906 for further purification, improving resource recovery efficiency. During the reset process, the system switches to normal operating state to discharge the clear liquid. The separate channels for collecting the clear liquid and discharging the cleaning liquid can avoid cross-contamination. The process is automatically switched without manual intervention. The spring 909 works with the abutment trough 904 and the abutment column 805 to ensure no displacement risk while the switching position is more accurate, ensuring that the water flows normally into the water collection tank 906 and the recovery tank 12. Cleaning the filter plates at each stage can maintain the efficiency of solid-liquid separation, improve purity, avoid residues affecting the separated clear liquid, extend the service life of the device, and prevent metal ion corrosion. The cleaned filter plates at each stage can avoid increasing the power consumption of the feed pump 1101.
