TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of comprehensive utilization of resources and hydrometallurgy, and in particular to a method for extracting vanadium and rubidium from high-silicon shale vanadium ore and preparing high-purity quartz. BACKGROUND
[0002] Shale vanadium ore is a key component of China's vanadium resource system, and plays a crucial strategic role in ensuring national resource security, supporting the development of a steel power and new energy industry. Among them, high-silicon shale vanadium ore has huge reserves, but its mineral composition is complex, the crystal lattice structure is stable, the vanadium grade is low, and it is often associated with rubidium, molybdenum, cobalt and other dispersed metals. Traditional processes such as "sodium roasting-water leaching" or "calcium roasting-acid leaching" mainly focus on the extraction of vanadium, but fail to achieve efficient recovery of valuable components such as silicon and rubidium, resulting in a large amount of silicon slag that can easily cause environmental accumulation and resource waste, thereby restricting the green and sustainable development of the industry.
[0003] Although the prior art has improved in terms of single vanadium extraction or quartz purification, there are still obvious bottlenecks: (1) Vanadium extraction: Conventional roasting has poor leaching effect on vanadium in high-silicon ore; a large amount of silicon is dissolved in the acid leaching process to form a colloid, which seriously interferes with the subsequent liquid-solid separation and extraction of vanadium and rubidium.
[0004] (2) High-purity quartz preparation: The preparation of high-purity quartz requires high purity of the raw material itself, and it is extremely difficult to obtain high-purity quartz from complex ores through beneficiation, especially the deep removal of impurities such as iron and aluminum.
[0005] (3) Rubidium recovery: As an associated element, rubidium is not recovered in the original process and is dispersed in various slag phases or solutions, causing the loss of strategic resources.
[0006] (4) Process sustainability: The existing preparation process is long, high in energy consumption, and produces a large amount of waste, which is poor in economy and environmental protection.
[0007] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a collaborative processing method that can simultaneously solve the efficient extraction of vanadium and rubidium and the high-value utilization of high-silicon slag, and realize the resource utilization of all components. SUMMARY
