[0002] The waste acid after oxidation roasting pretreatment of polymetallic sulfur concentrate containing gold, silver, copper, sulfur, arsenic, fluorine, etc. will contain a large amount of copper, arsenic, iron and other metal elements, which need to be treated and discharged only after the indicators meet the requirements. Figure 2 As shown, waste acid can remove some heavy metal elements such as copper and arsenic after neutralization and sulfidation reactions, but the treatment effect on high-arsenic wastewater is poor, which can easily lead to unstable wastewater indicators and environmental risks. At the same time, valuable metals such as copper enter the arsenic slag and cannot be recovered, resulting in waste of resources. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above problems, the utility model provides a waste acid treatment system for oxidation roasting pretreatment of gold-containing polymetallic sulphur concentrate.

[0004] The specific technical solution of the utility model is:

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, a waste acid treatment system for oxidation roasting pretreatment of gold-containing polymetallic sulfur concentrate includes a waste acid storage tank 1 and a 1# neutralization reaction tank 2 connected thereto, wherein the discharge port of the 1# neutralization reaction tank 2 is sequentially connected to a sedimentation tank 3, a 1# filter press 4, a 1# sulfidation reaction tank 5 and a 2# sulfidation reaction tank 6;

[0019] The discharge port of the 1# vulcanization reaction tank 5 is connected to the 1# thickener 7 and the 2# filter press 8 in sequence, the underflow port of the 1# thickener 7 is connected to the feed port of the 2# filter press 8, and the overflow port of the 1# thickener 7 and the filtrate port of the 2# filter press 8 are both connected to the feed port of the 2# vulcanization reaction tank 6;

[0020] The discharge port of the 2# sulfidation reaction tank 6 is connected to the 2# thickener 9 and the 3# filter press 10 in sequence, the underflow port of the 2# thickener 9 is connected to the feed port of the 3# filter press 10, and the overflow port of the 2# thickener 9 and the filtrate port of the 3# filter press 10 are both connected to the feed port of the gypsum reaction tank 11;

[0021] The discharge port of the gypsum reaction tank 11 is connected to the 4# filter press 12 , the filtrate port of the 4# filter press 12 is connected to the 2# neutralization reaction tank 13 , and the discharge port of the 2# neutralization reaction tank 13 is connected to the 5# filter press 14 .

[0022] Working Principle: The waste acid generated by the oxidation roasting pretreatment of gold-containing polymetallic sulfur concentrate is collected in the waste acid storage tank 1. During treatment, it is transported to the 1# neutralization reaction tank 2 for neutralization reaction. It reacts with the added lime milk to neutralize the sulfuric acid in the waste acid and adjust the concentration of the waste acid to 5%. The specific reaction formula is:

[0023] Ca(OH)2+H2SO4→CaSO4+H2O

[0024] After the reaction is completed, it is transferred to the sedimentation tank 3 for precipitation, and then filtered through the 1# filter press 4. The filter residue is lime slag, and the filtrate enters the 1# sulfidation reaction tank 5 for primary sulfidation reaction, reacting with the added sodium sulfide solution to remove copper and precipitate some arsenic at the same time. The main reaction formula is:

[0025] Na2S+H2SO4→H2S↑+Na2SO4

[0026] Na2S+CuSO4→CuS↓+Na2SO4

[0027] HAsO2+Na2S+H2SO4→As2S3↓+Na2SO4+H2O

[0028] CuSO4+As2S3+H2O→CuS↓+H2SO4+HAsO2

[0029] The addition of sodium sulfide produces CuS and As2S3 precipitates. Subsequently, divalent copper undergoes a replacement reaction with As2S3. By adding an appropriate amount of sodium sulfide, copper is preferentially precipitated, achieving copper-arsenic separation. During the reaction, the primary sulfidation reaction temperature is controlled at around 50°C for 80 minutes, with waste heat steam providing heat. The amount of sodium sulfide added must be controlled, and the PRP (redox potential) of the primary sulfidation reaction liquid is tested to assess the effectiveness of copper and arsenic ion removal, allowing adjustments to be made to the sodium sulfide dosage. Simultaneously, the original waste acid solution is monitored, and sulfidation parameters are adjusted promptly if indicators change.

[0030] After the primary sulfidation reaction, the copper-rich slag is concentrated and filtered through the No. 1 thickener 7 and the No. 2 filter press 8 (the copper-rich slag can be transported to the smelting system for copper smelting). The overflow liquid of the No. 1 thickener 7 and the filtrate of the No. 2 filter press 8 enter the No. 2 sulfidation reaction tank 6 for secondary sulfidation reaction, reacting with the added excess sodium sulfide solution to remove arsenic. After the reaction, the arsenic-rich slag is concentrated and filtered through the 2# thickener 9 and the 3# filter press 10 (As2S3 arsenic trioxide product is produced after refining), and the overflow liquid of the 2# thickener 9 and the filtrate of the 3# filter press 10 enter the gypsum reaction tank 11 to react with the added lime milk to produce gypsum. After the reaction, the 4# filter press 12 is filtered to obtain gypsum (which can be sold to the outside), and the filtrate continues to enter the 2# neutralization reaction tank 13 to neutralize the added lime milk again. After the reaction, it is filtered through the 5# filter press to obtain neutralized slag (containing iron elements, which can be returned to the roasting system for recovery). The filtrate is the desalted water (which can be recycled after entering the desalination system for treatment).

[0031] Preferably, in order to facilitate the addition of appropriate sodium sulfide solution, the feed ports of the 1# sulfide reaction tank 5 and the 2# sulfide reaction tank 6 are both connected to the discharge port of the sodium sulfide modulation tank 15. The sodium sulfide solution can be prepared in the sodium sulfide modulation tank 15 and directly supplied to the two reaction tanks for use, and the amount of sodium sulfide added can be controlled in conjunction with a dosing metering pump.

[0032] Preferably, the exhaust ports of the 1# neutralization reaction tank 2, the 1# sulfidation reaction tank 5, and the 2# sulfidation reaction tank 6 are all connected to the air inlet of the hydrogen sulfide absorption tower 16, and the air outlet of the hydrogen sulfide absorption tower 16 is further connected to the harm removal tower 17. The hydrogen sulfide absorption tower 16 and the harm removal tower 17 can remove the hydrogen sulfide gas generated during the waste acid neutralization reaction and the sulfidation reaction, effectively preventing the occurrence of safety accidents caused by the leakage of toxic gases.

[0033] In summary, the waste acid treatment system adopts a distributed sulfidation process, taking advantage of the different chemical affinities between copper, arsenic, and sulfur. The sulfidation reaction is controlled by adjusting parameters such as pH value, redox potential, and the amount of sodium sulfide added. Copper and arsenic are selectively sulfided, with copper being preferentially precipitated before arsenic, resulting in a filter cake composed mainly of copper sulfide. The separation effect is stable and the removal rate is high, which can effectively ensure that wastewater indicators are consistently met. Moreover, the separated copper and arsenic can be effectively recycled. At the same time, the addition of gypsum reaction and neutralization reaction after the sulfidation reaction can effectively filter out gypsum and neutralization residue in the waste acid, further purify the waste acid, and ensure that the effluent can be recycled. In addition, the system also adds a hydrogen sulfide absorption tower and a harm removal tower to the process to treat the hydrogen sulfide gas during the reaction, effectively avoiding safety accidents caused by toxic gas leakage.

[0034] The present invention is described in detail above through specific and preferred embodiments, but those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
