Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rare metal metallurgy, and in particular to a rhenium extractant for modifying straw char with low-carbon graphite powder, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Rhenium is one of the rarest elements in the Earth's crust, with an estimated average abundance of one part per billion. It possesses excellent physicochemical properties and is irreplaceable in certain applications. Rhenium is one of the most refractory metals, with a melting point as high as 3180℃. It also exhibits high mechanical strength, good plasticity, and excellent mechanical stability. The production of high-performance single-crystal superalloys using rhenium plays an irreplaceable role in the development of high-temperature alloys for aerospace engines, making it a strategic metal vital to national industrial production and technological development. However, rhenium resources are extremely limited, and independent mineral formation is rare in nature. Therefore, the separation, enrichment, and recovery of rhenium have become a research hotspot.

[0003] In China, the main methods for extracting and recovering rhenium from rhenium-bearing ores include pyrochemical roasting and chemical treatment, which are the most traditional and primary methods. Chinese Patent Publication No. CN102628111A discloses a method for extracting rhenium from rhenium-rich concentrate, comprising the following steps: S1, mixing and finely grinding the rhenium-rich concentrate with 0.5-3 times its weight of quicklime, and roasting it at 400℃~900℃ for 2-8 hours with oxygen-enriched air at a pressure of 0.2Mpa-0.5Mpa; S2, adding ammonium carbonate (2-3 times its weight of calcium) as a purification agent, and performing purification for 0.5-2 hours to address the high calcium content of the quicklime. However, this method uses 0.5-3 times the amount of rhenium ore mixed with quicklime, finely ground, and then roasted at 400℃~900℃ for 2-8 hours. The amount of quicklime used is large, and a large amount of dust and waste residue are generated during the high-temperature roasting process, which seriously pollutes the environment. At the same time, ammonium carbonate, a toxic alkaline agent with 2-3 times the mass of calcium, is used as a purification agent. The amount of ammonium carbonate used is large, and ammonia gas is generated during its decomposition. Ammonia gas is a toxic gas that will harm the environment and human health, which also seriously pollutes the environment.

[0004] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN108611496A discloses a method for extracting rhenium from copper smelting waste acid, comprising the following steps: S1, filling an exchange column with macroporous anion exchange resin, and then converting it with 5% dilute sulfuric acid for 0.8-1 hours; S2, preparing 7% ammonia water and desorbing it for 1-2 hours; the desorbed liquid is concentrated by evaporation and cooled to crystallize to obtain ammonium rheniumate crystals. However, this method uses 5% dilute sulfuric acid for 0.8-1 hours of conversion and 7% ammonia water for 1-2 hours of desorption. Sulfuric acid is a strong acid, and its use may generate acidic wastewater, causing pollution to water bodies and soil; the volatilization of ammonia water will produce ammonia gas, which is also harmful to the environment and human health. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Therefore, in view of the above problems, the present invention provides a rhenium extractant for straw char modified with low-carbon graphite powder, its preparation method and application, which solves the problem of high pollution caused by the prior art of extracting rhenium by mixing sulfuric acid or high-concentration alkali, grinding and then roasting at high temperature.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A rhenium extractant for modifying straw char with low-carbon graphite powder, comprising the following raw materials: waste crop straw, low-carbon graphite powder, and CF3SO3H; The waste crop straw is in powder form, and the waste crop straw is sorghum stalks or corn stalks.

Take waste crop straw and low-carbon graphite powder by weight, put them into a muffle furnace, and carbonize them at 300℃ for 60 minutes respectively. S2. The carbonized waste crop straw is mixed with low-carbon graphite powder to obtain waste crop straw modified with oxidized graphite powder. Then, CF3SO3H is added according to the weight parts, stirred evenly, and allowed to stand for 10 hours to obtain the rhenium extractant of straw carbon modified with low-carbon graphite powder.

[0009] Furthermore, in step S1, the density of the negative charge of the carbonized waste crop straw is -0.1 to -0.5 C / m³. 2 .

[0010] Furthermore, in step S2, the waste crop straw modified with graphite oxide powder has the structural formula O=CH-COOH, forming hydroxide ions -O - Its negative charge density is 0.8-10 C / m³. 2 sp of oxygen atom 3 The hybrid orbital overlaps with one orbital of another atom to form a σ bond, exhibiting nucleophilicity to positive charges, with a capacitance of C = 386 F / g and an electronegativity χ < 2.3.

[0011] The application of the rhenium extractant obtained by the above-described method for preparing rhenium extractant from straw charcoal modified with low-carbon graphite powder includes the following steps: I. The rhenium extractant of the straw char modified with the low-carbon graphite powder is added to copper tailings or rhenium-containing minerals and stirred for 1-1.5 hours to obtain the first mixture; II. The first mixture is centrifuged to separate the solid and liquid phases, and then leached rhenium metal is obtained.

[0012] Furthermore, the leaching recovery rate of the rhenium metal is ≥96%.

[0013] Furthermore, in step I, the stirring process is carried out in a stirrer at a speed of ≥150 rpm.

[0014] Furthermore, in step II, the centrifugation speed is ≥4000 rpm and the time is 5-10 min.

[0015] Furthermore, when the rhenium extractant derived from straw char modified with low-carbon graphite powder is applied to copper tailings or rhenium-containing minerals, Re 3+ Or Re 7+ To -COO - -O - -SO3 - Electrostatic attraction occurs, and the substance is adsorbed in the solution by Coulomb forces. The specific process is as follows: Re n+ +n(-SO3 − → (-SO3) n Re n+ .

[0016] Furthermore, the rhenium extractant of the straw char modified with the low-carbon graphite powder can be added to copper tailings or rhenium-containing minerals without intervention in pH and temperature.

[0017] By adopting the aforementioned technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The rhenium extractant for low-carbon graphite powder-modified straw char provided in this technical solution is based on the "opposite charge attraction" mechanism: after modification with graphite powder, the straw char becomes negatively charged hydroxide ions (-O). - ), with a charge density of 0.8-10 C / m, and composed of sp atoms of oxygen atoms. 3 Hybrid orbitals overlap with one orbital of another atom to form a σ bond, exhibiting positively charged nucleophilicity. When applied to copper tailings or other rhenium-containing minerals, the rhenium ion (Re...)... 3+ Or Re 7+ ) to -COO - -O - -SO3 - Electrostatic attraction occurs, and the substance is adsorbed in the solution by Coulomb forces. The specific process is as follows: Re n+ +n(-SO3 − → (-SO3) n Re n+ This is an application of the law that "opposite charges attract each other"; The advantages of this invention are as follows: First, the rhenium extractant from straw charcoal modified with low-carbon graphite powder exhibits superior specificity during adsorption due to the attraction of opposite charges, achieving a rhenium recovery rate of over 96%. Second, the negative charge of the rhenium extractant from straw charcoal modified with low-carbon graphite powder originates from natural ecological plants, and the low-carbon graphite powder used for modification is non-toxic. Due to its green, safe, and recyclable nature, it is hailed as "black gold" by the agricultural science community. Third, the raw materials are derived from waste sorghum or corn stalks, resulting in low cost and simple production. Attached Figure Description
