Abstract

The invention discloses a process method for refining crude tellurium. The method is a tellurium refining process method comprising the steps of crude tellurium powder acid pickling, potential-controlled oxidation acid leaching, oxidation acid leaching residue washing, crude tellurium dioxide liquid making, electrodeposition liquid preparation through purification, electrodeposition, tellurium sheet boiling and washing, drying and casting. The method is simple and convenient to operate, cost is low, and technological process is simple, requirements on equipment are low, the recovery rate of tellurium in the whole technological process is high, the problems that a traditional tellurium refining technology is too long in production period and high in system occupation are avoided, a series of problems that the production cost is high, the operation intensity is high, tellurium and impurities are not separated thoroughly are solved, tellurium ingots with the purity higher than 99.99% canbe prepared through the method, and the method is suitable for wide application and popularization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metallurgy, in particular to a process for refining crude tellurium. Background technique [0002] At present, the main process methods of tellurium refining are direct oxidative acid leaching of crude tellurium powder, primary alkaline leaching, secondary alkaline leaching, primary alkaline leaching liquid purification, purification liquid neutralization, crude tellurium dioxide washing, crude tellurium dioxide calcination, crude Tellurium dioxide liquid making, repurification, clarification and filtration of purified liquid, electrowinning of filtered liquid, and casting of tellurium sheets. However, this method has great limitations, mainly in the following aspects: (1) Coarse tellurium powder contains many impurities, such as selenium, copper, lead, bismuth, arsenic, silicon, etc., and the content of tellurium is unstable; (2) The process is very long and complicated; (3) The oxidative acid leaching ...
