The invention discloses a method for carrying out precipitate
impurity removal on a
copper electrolyte and carrying out chlorination regeneration on a precipitant. The method comprises the following steps: adding an
antimony compound in the
copper electrolyte to remove co-precipitates containing
arsenic,
antimony and
bismuth, then directly returning the
copper electrolyte to an
electrolysis system after the
impurity removal, and comprehensively recovering the precipitates containing
arsenic,
antimony and
bismuth by means of carbochlorination and gradient temperature-control condensation. The carbochlorination is carried out on the precipitates to obtain a
mixed gas containing
arsenic chlorides, antimony chlorides and
bismuth chlorides under the action of
coke and a chlorinating agent; high-temperature condensation is carried out on the
mixed gas to obtain the bismuth chlorides and high-temperature condensation
tail gas; medium-temperature condensation is carried out on the high-temperature condensation
tail gas to obtain the antimony chlorides and medium-temperature condensation
tail gas; low-temperature condensation is carried out on the medium-temperature condensation tail gas to obtain the arsenic chlorides and
ammonia-containing tail gas; and the antimony chlorides and the
ammonia-containing tail gas are slowly added in water,
hydrolysis transformation is carried out on the antimony chlorides and the
ammonia-containing tail gas to obtain the antimony compound, and the antimony compound is returned to a precipitate
impurity removal procedure as the precipitant. The process method disclosed by the invention has the characteristics of being short in process flow, simple to operate, high in removal rate, free from the emission of 'three wastes', capable of repeatedly using the precipitant, low in cost and the like, and is suitable for large-scale industrial production.
