Abstract

A method for removing impurities by oxidation in the process of zinc hydrometallurgy with sub-zinc oxide high in iron content as the raw material specifically comprises the following five procedures: A. primary impurity removal during leaching of sub-zinc oxide; B. deep impurity removal of ZnSO4 solution; C. first-stage purification of ZnSO4 solution; D. second-stage purification of ZnSO4 solution; and E. filtration to finally obtain the ZnSO4 solution in accordance with the requirement for producing zinc by electrolysis. The method better solves the problem of impurity removal in the process of producing electrolytic zinc with sub-zinc oxide as the raw material, especially the removal of As, Sb, Ge, F and Fe, and ensures the electrolytic zinc to be produced smoothly and ensures high product quality. In the method, the industrial grade H2O2 is used as the oxidant to remove the impurities from the leachate of zinc oxide and can not bring in the impurities harmful to the electrolytic zinc, thus ensuring smooth production, improving the product quality and the production yield and lowering the cost, in addition, the industrial grade H2O2 is relatively cheap and easy to purchase, thus the method is suitable for popularization and application in large scale.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of hydrometallurgy in the field of nonferrous metal metallurgy, and specifically relates to a method for oxidizing and removing iron and other impurities in the process of hydrometallurgy using secondary zinc oxide with high iron content as a raw material. Background technique [0002] The production methods of metal zinc are divided into fire method and wet method. The fire method is also called dry zinc smelting, that is, putting zinc ore and additives into a furnace and heating to a high temperature, and the metal zinc is reduced and melted into a liquid. In this way, crude metallic zinc is separated and further refined into metallic zinc with higher purity. Zinc hydrometallurgy is to use acid, alkali, salt and other solutions to extract zinc components from ores, and then electrolyze the zinc-containing solution to produce metallic zinc. Zinc hydrometallurgy has the following advantages: strong applicability to l...
