The invention discloses a harmless co-treatment method for oxidative cyanidation
tailings and non-
ferrous smelting arsenic-containing waste acid, and belongs to the technical field of
metallurgical industry solid waste comprehensive recycling and heavy
metal arsenic pollution abatement. The method comprises the following steps that water is added into the oxidative cyanidation
tailings to obtain ore pulp, and the ore pulp is subjected to
secondary treatment; adjusting the pH value of the ore pulp to be alkaline by using
sodium hydroxide so as to prevent the generation of
hydrogen cyanide gas, and obtaining cyanidation tailing adjusted ore pulp; adding a decyanation agent and an auxiliary agent into the cyanidation tailing adjusting ore pulp, and reacting to obtain a
solid-liquid mixture A; filtering the
solid-liquid mixture A to obtain decyanated
tailings and decyanated liquid, uniformly mixing the decyanated tailings with non-
ferrous smelting arsenic-containing waste acid, and reacting to obtain a solid-liquid mixture B; and filtering the solid-liquid mixture B to obtain an arsenic-containing solid and arsenic-removed filtrate. According to the method, the oxidizing cyanidation tailings are used as an arsenic removal
reagent and neutralized with the arsenic-containing waste acid for nonferrous
smelting, and meanwhile, iron ions and
calcium and
magnesium ions separated from the oxidizing cyanidation tailings can form stable precipitates such as
scorodite and the like with arsenic ions in the arsenic-containing waste acid, so that the effect of treating waste with waste is achieved.
