The invention discloses a method for separating and extracting lead and
zinc from lead-
zinc sulfide ore
powder, and belongs to the technical field of
nonferrous metal extraction. The method for separating and extracting lead and
zinc from lead-
zinc sulfide ore
powder comprises the following steps: adding a surfactant and a
dilute acid solution into the lead-
zinc sulfide ore
powder, uniformly mixing, and pouring into a closed reaction kettle; introducing
oxygen, heating to a constant temperature, starting stirring, carrying out
oxygen pressure leaching, and carrying out liquid-
solid separation after a preset time is reached, so as to obtain
lead sulfate-based leaching residues and zinc-iron-containing leaching liquid; adding an
oxidizing agent into the zinc-iron-containing leaching solution, adding a neutralizing agent for
neutralization and
hydrolysis after reaction, and removing impurities to obtain a zinc solution; adding the
lead sulfate-based leaching residues into an alkaline desulfurizing agent to carry out desulfurization reaction, and leaching in an acid leaching agent to obtain lead-containing leaching liquid; and the lead-containing leaching agent is subjected to electro-deposition,
metal lead is obtained, waste
electrolyte is returned to the acid leaching agent, and recycling of the leaching agent is achieved. By adopting the method for separating and extracting the lead and the zinc from the lead-
zinc sulfide ore powder, efficient and deep separation and
recovery of the zinc and the lead in the lead-zinc
sulfide ore are realized.
