This invention discloses a method for recovering lead from waste ash dishes, belonging to the field of
resource utilization. The method includes: (1) pretreatment and reduction
smelting: the waste ash dishes are crushed and mixed with
reducing agent and flux for high-temperature reduction
smelting to obtain crude
lead alloy and
slag; (2)
vacuum distillation separation: the crude
lead alloy is heated under vacuum to volatilize and condense the lead to obtain
metallic lead, and the residue is a
precious metal enrichment. This invention adopts a combination process of "reduction
smelting enrichment +
vacuum distillation separation", which uses physical
gas phase separation to replace traditional chemical oxidation separation, avoiding lead oxidation loss and lead-containing
flue gas generation. It has the advantages of short process, high
recovery rate and environmental friendliness, and is applicable to various sources such as waste ash dishes for fire
assay analysis or waste ash dishes for precious lead ash blowing refining.
