The invention discloses a method for extracting
manganese from low-grade
rhodochrosite, which comprises the following steps:
drying, crushing and screening the low-grade
rhodochrosite, uniformly mixing with a flux, heating to 165 DEG C in a tubular furnace under the protection of
inert gas,
roasting at constant temperature, heating to 245 DEG C,
roasting at constant temperature, then heating to 620 DEG C,
roasting at constant temperature, and naturally cooling to
room temperature after roasting, and adding deionized water, leaching
manganese sulfate from the roasted sample at
room temperature, filtering and separating, carrying out graded purification and
impurity removal on the filtrate, adding
ammonium bicarbonate to convert the
manganese sulfate into manganese
carbonate, filtering, washing with deionized water, and carrying out high-temperature
calcination to obtain the manganous-manganic
oxide. According to the method, a pyrogenic process flux is utilized to form a
reducing atmosphere under the protection of
inert gas, a manganese source in the low-grade
rhodochrosite is fully utilized, high-valence manganese in the low-grade rhodochrosite is reduced into + 2-valence low-valence manganese, the low-valence manganese is utilized to carry out
sulfation reaction, and formed soluble MnSO4 is soaked in deionized water, so that manganese is efficiently extracted from the low-grade rhodochrosite.
