The invention belongs to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of metallurgical resources, and particularly relates to a method for preparing
carbonate powder by
smelting wastes by using stainless steel. The method for preparing the
carbonate powder by
smelting the wastes by using the stainless steel comprises the steps that stainless steel
smelting slag is subjected to on-line ore
phase reconstruction, after cooling, leaching is conducted by using a metallurgical waste acid solution, and after
filtration, a
calcium and
magnesium-rich solution is obtained, the pH value of a filter liquor is adjusted, and a structure-directing agent is added; metallurgical
waste gas containing CO2 is introduced into the obtained solution to form a precipitate, and after
filtration and
drying,
calcium carbonate powder and
magnesium carbonate powder with regular shapes and sizes are obtained in sequence. By means of the method, on-line ore
phase reconstruction of the stainless steel
slag is achieved, a lot of
calcium and
magnesium are enriched into a phase easy to leach,
chromium is enriched into a
spinel phase, while
chromium stabilization is considered, the
resource utilization rate of the stainless steel
slag is improved greatly, the carbonate powder can be widely used in the industries of building, paper making, rubber, medicines and the like, and it is achieved that wastes are controlled by wastes, and wastes are prepared into valuable things.
