The invention relates to the technical field of production and preparation of
ammonium tetramolybdate, and particularly discloses a preparation method for producing high-purity
ammonium tetramolybdate from low-grade
molybdenite. The preparation method for producing the high-purity
ammonium tetramolybdate from the low-grade
molybdenite comprises the following steps: S1, pretreating the low-grade
molybdenite to obtain
slag, and
roasting the
slag to obtain roasted
slag; s2, the roasted slag and an
ammonia water solution are mixed and leached, and a leaching solution is obtained; s3, an
impurity removal agent and an adsorbent are added into the
leachate for adsorption and purification, the
impurity removal agent comprises
mercaptoacetic acid and disodium
ethylene diamine tetraacetate, the adsorbent is modified
calcium alginate, and after purified liquid passes through an anion exchange resin column, an
ammonium molybdate solution is obtained; and S4, adding a
nitric acid solution into the
ammonium molybdate solution, adjusting the pH value, and then crystallizing to obtain high-purity ammonium tetramolybdate. According to the preparation method, the purity of the
ammonium molybdate solution is effectively improved through three procedures, and then the purity of ammonium tetramolybdate prepared from low-grade molybdenite is effectively improved.
