The invention discloses a method for preparing high-purity
quartz sand. The method comprises the following steps of: dividing
quartz ore into blocks with size of 30mm*30mm for classification; roughly washing and calcining the
quartz ore; calcining the quartz ore twice at the
furnace temperature of between 840 and 880 DEG C and at the
furnace temperature of between 890 and 910 DEG C; performing water-
quenching and pulverizing the quartz ore into quartz sand with particle size of between 0.4 and 0.1mm; placing the pulverized quartz ore sand into a reaction tank; adding
ultrapure water with purity level of between 14.5 and 15.5M which is 65 to 75 percent of the volume of the reaction tank, the quartz sand which is 30 to 40
volume percent of the
ultrapure water and the mixture of concentratedhydrochloric acid or
hydrochloric acid with concentration of 35 to 37 percent and
hydrofluoric acid into the reaction tank in turn, wherein based on the
ultrapure water, the mixture of the concentrated
hydrochloric acid or
hydrochloric acid is 5 to 8
volume percent; keeping the temperature of the reaction tank at 60 to 80 DEG C; stirring the mixture in the reaction tank for 20 to 30 minutes, precipitating the mixture for 10 to 15 minutes and then discharging the primary liquid out of the reaction tank; adding a proper amount of ultrapure water again; stirring and cleaning; conveying the
mortar of the reaction tank to a cleaning tank; cleaning the
mortar in the cleaning tank by using the ultrapure water; performing liquid-
solid separation on the quartz ore;
drying the quartz ore under the environment with temperature of between 175 and 185 DEG C; and performing
magnetic separation, and screening and packaging the quartz ore. Thus, resources are protected and fully utilized, and the maximization of the economic benefit is realized.
