The invention relates to the technical field of
mineral processing, and provides a process for recovering
phosphorus from
vanadium titano-
magnetite tailings, which comprises the following steps: S1,
magnetic separation: carrying out ore
grinding treatment and low intensity
magnetic separation tailing discarding treatment on the
vanadium titano-
magnetite tailings to obtain
magnetic minerals and non-
magnetic minerals for later use; s2, pulp mixing is conducted, specifically, water is added into non-
magnetic minerals, stirring is conducted, and ore pulp is obtained for standby application; a
sodium carbonate aqueous solution is added into the ore pulp, stirring is carried out, a
gangue inhibitor and water are added, stirring is carried out, a collecting agent and water are added, stirring and foam scraping are carried out, roughed concentrate and
scavenging feed ore are obtained for standby application, and the
gangue inhibitor is a mixture of modified water glass and
sodium hexametaphosphate with the
mass ratio being 1: (0.3-0.6); and S4, concentration is conducted, specifically, primary concentration, secondary concentration and third concentration are conducted on the roughed concentrate, and final
phosphate concentrate is obtained. The process for recycling
phosphorus from the
vanadium titano-
magnetite tailings has the advantages that the flotation
reagent dosage is low, and the obtained
phosphorus concentrate has the
high phosphorus grade.
