The present invention provides a treatment process for efficiently recovering
indium from alkali
slag, specifically comprising: S1,
grinding and screening the alkali
slag, and washing it with water to obtain a pretreated alkali
slag; S2, placing the pretreated alkali slag into a reaction tank, adding an acid solution, and heating the reaction to obtain an acid leaching solution I; S3, adding the acid leaching solution to
hydrogen peroxide for stirring and reacting, stopping the stirring, and allowing it to stand to obtain an acid leaching solution II; S4, adding water to the acid leaching solution II, followed by adding
polyacrylamide for dispersion, filter pressing, and reducing with
iron powder to obtain high-
copper slag and acid leaching solution III; S5, purifying the acid leaching solution III through a
reverse osmosis membrane and reducing it with
zinc flakes to obtain
sponge indium; S6,
smelting the
sponge indium to cast an indium
ingot to obtain crude indium, and electrolytically refining the crude indium to obtain refined indium. The treatment process of the present invention achieves one-time
recovery of indium, with a direct
recovery rate of indium as high as 95% and a purity of 99.995%. At the same time, the direct
recovery rate of
copper reaches up to 85%, while all lead remains in the slag mud, achieving the separation of indium from other valuable metals, increasing
economic benefits, and having good application prospects.
