Problems solved by technology

The inventor once adopted hydrochloric acid leaching to the tin anode slime containing 0.2% silver, and as a result, the silver in the anode slime all entered the leaching solution, which could not be recovered and lost
[0005] The process of pyroprocessing tin anode slime has the advantages of large processing capacity and short process, but the removal rate of antimony is low, and the effect of comprehensive recycling is not good

Abstract

Belonging to the technical field of wet metallurgy, the invention especially relates to a method for comprehensive recovery of valuable metals from tin anode mud. The method comprises the following technical key points of: mixing the tin anode mud with one or more of an alkali metal hydroxide aqueous solution and an alkali metal sulfide aqueous solution, keeping the pH value of the mixed feed solution greater than 12, placing the feed solution into a sealed reactor, conducting heating to a temperature of 100-300DEG C, carrying out stirring reaction, then performing filtration, recovering valuable metals, mainly tin, from the filtrate, and recovering various valuable metals from the filter residue by means of oxidizing roasting transformation, copper leaching by sulfuric acid, silver leaching by nitric acid, bismuth leaching by hydrochloric acid. The invention is particularly suitable for treatment of tin anode mud with high antimony and low silver, and can achieve a good comprehensive recovery effect for various valuable metals. The leaching rate of tin is greater than 90%, the removal rate of antimony is greater than 85%, and silver, bismuth, copper, as well as lead are enriched over 4 times. And the method generates a relative small amount of ''three wastes'', thus being in favor of environmental protection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrometallurgy, in particular to a method for comprehensively recovering valuable metals from tin anode slime. Background technique [0002] The tin anode slime produced by crude tin or crude solder electrolytic refining has a high content of valuable metals. Generally, the mass percentage of metal contained in tin anode slime is as high as 70%, so it has great recycling value; at the same time, tin There are many kinds of metals contained in the anode slime, and almost all the metal elements that enter the tin smelting process can be found in the tin anode slime. The contents of Sn, Sb, As, Bi, Cu, and Pb are generally above 1%. Certain Ag, In, Au, etc., so the recovery process is long and difficult. [0003] Due to the high content and variety of valuable metals in tin anode slime, comprehensive utilization of technical solutions is generally adopted to treat tin anode slime. When the silver content ...
