Problems solved by technology

The silver-zinc shell produced in the process of adding zinc and removing silver will take away part of the bismuth, which directly affects the direct yield of bismuth, and the silver-zinc shell needs to be further processed to recover the silver. The recovery rate is not high, and the treatment process is also difficult. It is very complicated, and the zinc brought in needs to be further processed
For the chlorination refining process, there are also many disadvantages, such as the chlorine gas that is introduced will hurt people, pollute the operating environment, and severely corrode equipment at high temperatures.

Abstract

The invention relates to a fire-refining method of crude bismuth, and belongs to the technical field of fire metallurgy. The fire-refining method comprises the following steps: liquating a crude-bismuth melt so as to remove copper; performing vacuum distillation again on the liquated crude-bismuth melt so as to remove impurities, such as lead and silver; performing chlorination refining; and finally performing refining so as to obtain refined bismuth. According to the fire-refining method disclosed by the invention, a vacuum distillation technique is adopted for replacing a procedure that zinc is added in a refining kettle so as to remove silver, and partial lead, antimony, tellurium and arsenic are removed, so that the labor strength of workers is reduced; through secondary vacuum distillation, crude silver with a high silver content can be directly collected in a vacuum furnace, and generated secondary crude bismuth can be recycled, so that the cost is greatly reduced; a subsequent zinc removing procedure is also omitted, and the amount of chlorine gas for subsequent chlorination refining is greatly reduced, so that harm to environment is reduced to a great extent, and the direct recovery rate of bismuth is increased; the whole technological process is safe and controllable, the operation is convenient, adopted equipment is simple, the universality of raw materials is high, the direct recovery rate of bismuth is high, and the slag yield is low.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a pyro-refining method for crude bismuth, which belongs to the technical field of pyrometallurgy. Background technique [0002] Bismuth metal is a silver-white brittle metal with poor ductility and easy powder formation. Its chemical properties are stable and it is an environmentally friendly material. It has important roles in the fields of ceramics, semiconductor materials, nuclear industry, chemical industry, fire protection and electrical facilities. effect. [0003] Coarse bismuth produced by reduction smelting, precipitation smelting and mixed smelting of bismuth ore contains many impurities. Even the bismuth-rich concentrate with high bismuth content, after smelting, its purity still cannot meet the requirements of users. The impurity components of crude bismuth are mainly divided into copper, lead, silver, arsenic, antimony, tellurium, tin, etc. They have a great influence on the properties of bismuth and cannot be use...
