Problems solved by technology

As the most widely used zinc extractant, P204 has poor selectivity to zinc. During the extraction process, a large amount of acid is released, resulting in a decrease in pH, which makes the extraction of zinc incomplete. The zinc concentration in the system needs to be opened.
In the domestic reported factories using P204 to extract zinc, the extraction recovery rate of zinc is only 60%~70%. During the production process, zinc is continuously accumulated in the solution, and it needs to be neutralized step by step or combined with traditional zinc smelting process for zinc extraction. Open circuit, which complicates the production process, increases production costs and reduces economic benefits

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for extracting zinc from a low-grade zinc-containing material leaching liquid and belongs to the technical field of metallurgy. According to the method, di(2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid) and No. 260 aviation kerosene constitute an extraction organic phase, Zn<2+> is extracted from the low-grade zinc-containing material leaching liquid, reverse extraction is performed with zinc electrodeposition waste liquid and thus the recovery of zinc in the leaching liquid can be effectively achieved. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps of firstly preparing a zinc sulfate solution with a certain concentration according to the concentration of zinc in the leaching liquid and the extraction effect of the used extractant, diluting the leaching liquid with the zinc sulfate solution and extracting the diluted solution so that all zinc in the leaching liquid is enriched into the organic phase; returning a part of raffinate for extracting and neutralizing a part of raffinate with lime and recycling for dilution. By the steps of diluting, extracting, neutralizing and recycling, Zn<2+> can be efficiently extracted and enriched and the extraction recovery rate of zinc in the leaching liquid reaches above 98%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgy, and in particular relates to a method for extracting zinc from leachate of low-grade zinc-containing materials. Background technique [0002] At present, most of the zinc concentrates are processed by the traditional roasting-leaching-electrowinning process. In order to obtain better economic benefits, it is generally required that the zinc content of the roasted ore should be more than 55%. For low-grade zinc-containing materials such as oxide ore and zinc-containing slag, due to their low zinc content and low zinc concentration in the leaching solution, they cannot be connected with the current zinc electrowinning process, and separation and enrichment is required. Extraction is a suitable method for separation and enrichment commonly used at present, but the existing methods for extracting zinc have many limitations and are difficult for industrial application. [0003] The extraction of z...
