A method for recovering
heavy metals and soluble
chlorine salts from
fly ash generated by
incineration of
domestic waste. The method comprises the following steps: first, mixing
fly ash with water and an acid, performing a leaching reaction when a pH value is controlled, improving the leaching efficiency of lead and
zinc by means of air agitation, and measuring dissolved
oxygen or
redox potential to determine a leaching reaction endpoint; second, using a vulcanizing agent to recover leached
heavy metals, and adjusting and monitoring the pH value of a
leachate so as to control the adding amount of the vulcanizing agent; third, adding an alkali to adjust the pH value of the
leachate so as to precipitate impurities such as aluminum and iron, and using an excessive amount of the vulcanizing agent to further remove
heavy metals; and finally, adding an
oxidizing agent and an iron salt coagulant into the
leachate from which the heavy metals and impurities are removed, so as to remove
divalent sulfur and
arsenic, wherein the finally purified leachate can be used for recovering soluble
chlorine salts. The method has a simple and efficient process, can significantly increase the
recovery rate of heavy metals, and recovers heavy metals in the form of
metal sulfides, thus facilitating subsequent separation treatment. The treated
fly ash can be used as a
raw material of
cement, thus achieving efficient utilization of resources.
