Problems solved by technology

However, the recovery process route of selenium and tellurium in the traditional process is very long, not only the consumption of reagents is large, the processing cost is high, and the recovery rate of tellurium is low, the recovery rate of tellurium is usually less than 50%, and almost no one uses it now
Another reason for this result is that most of the lead sulfate in the copper anode slime reacts with sodium carbonate in the sintering and leaching process into lead carbonate and sodium sulfate, so that the process has to increase the concentration of the leachate to dry and dry residue. Add carbon reduction and other processes to separate and recover selenium and sodium carbonate

Abstract

Disclosed is a method for separating and recycling selenium and tellurium from copper anode mud. The method includes: performing soda sintering on the copper anode mud or copper-removed anode mud obtained after copper removing is performed on the copper anode mud, adding water into the sintered material for leaching, and filtering to obtain selenium-rich leachate and tellurium-rich leach residues; subjecting the selenium-rich leachate to sodium carbonate separating and recycling, using sodium sulfite or SO2 to revivify and recycle selenium in the selenium-rich leachate or filtrate, filtering to obtain rough selenium powder, and further refining the rough selenium powder to obtain metal selenium; leaching the tellurium-rich leach residues via a sulfuric acid solution, filtering to obtain acid leachate and acid leach residues; subjecting the acid leachate to silver separating through chlorination, using sodium sulfite or SO2 to revivify and precipitate tellurium in the chlorinated acid leachate, filtering to obtain rough tellurium powder, and further refining the rough tellurium powder to obtain metal tellurium. The method has the advantages that by the integral redesign of the process and the mutual cooperation of the steps, the process route for separating and recycling the selenium and the tellurium from the copper anode mud is simplified greatly, environmental protection pressure during a copper anode mud processing process is alleviated greatly, and the method conforms to the development tendency of energy saving and emission reduction technical transformation; the method is simple in process, simple to operate, low in production cost, high in selenium and tellurium recycling rate, good in working environment, suitable for industrialized application, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention discloses a method for separating and recovering selenium and tellurium from copper anode slime, which belongs to the technical field of metallurgy and chemical industry. Background technique [0002] Both selenium and tellurium are typical scattered elements, which are mainly enriched in the anode slime of electrolytic refining of heavy non-ferrous metals, among which copper anode slime is the main raw material for the production of selenium and tellurium. Copper anode slime usually contains Cu 10-30%, Pb 5-20%, Se1-10%, Te0.2-6%. Cu in copper anode slime mainly exists in the form of metallic copper, and almost all Pb is in the form of lead sulfate form, while selenium and tellurium mainly exist as selenides and tellurides of copper and silver. The methods for separation and recovery of selenium and tellurium from copper anode slime mainly include sulfuration roasting, distilling selenium-water leaching for copper-alkali leaching for te...
