The invention relates to the technical field of waste
resource recovery, in particular to a vacuum carbothermic method for
ferrochrome smelting dust collection ash, which comprises the following steps of: fully and uniformly mixing the
ferrochrome dust collection ash and a carbonaceous
reducing agent according to the
mass ratio of 1: (0.05-0.5), and pressing into
pellets; the
pellets are placed in the environment with the temperature
ranging from 850 DEG C to 1050 DEG C and the pressure intensity
ranging from 5 Pa to 150 Pa, vacuum
carbonization reduction reaction is carried out for 60 min to 180 min, and the product
zinc and reducing
slag are obtained; the method comprises the following steps: crushing and
grinding the reducing
slag, adding water for size mixing, carrying out
solid-liquid separation to obtain iron-containing
slag and a high-
salt solution, carrying out
magnetic separation treatment on the iron-containing slag to obtain magnetic slag and non-magnetic slag, returning the magnetic slag to a furnace for circulation, taking the non-magnetic slag as a
raw material of a
cement plant, carrying out evaporative
crystallization on the high-
salt solution to obtain NaCl, KCl and an
evaporation mother solution, and carrying out
solid-liquid separation on the
evaporation mother solution, and returning the
evaporation mother liquor to the reducing slag for size mixing. According to the method, the Cr < 6 + > leaching risk can be effectively eliminated, and valuable elements are efficiently recycled.
