The invention discloses a method for producing high-purity
metal chromium from waste
chromium-containing
refractory materials by using a carbon reduction method, belongs to the technical field of general industrial
solid waste resource environment-friendly comprehensive utilization and
metal smelting, and particularly relates to a method for producing the high-purity
metal chromium from the waste chromium-containing
refractory materials by performing crushing
magnetic separation, acid leaching
impurity removal, carbon reduction,
slag-metal separation and electroslag refining processes on the waste chromium-containing
refractory materials. The purity of the finally produced metal chromium reaches 98.9%-99.4%, and the chromium
recovery rate reaches 82.2%-82.5%. Wherein yttria-stabilized zirconia and
lanthanum oxyfluoride are selected as additives, it is accidentally found in the
research process that the
lanthanum oxyfluoride and zirconia are combined for use to have a synergistic effect, and during specific combination,
lanthanum oxyfluoride and zirconia can form a La-Zr-O-F composite melt, so that the
slag-gold separation efficiency is remarkably improved; and further, the purity of the final product chromium metal is obviously improved.
