Abstract

The present invention relates to smelting technology and is wet smelting process of producing high purity zinc metal from zinc oxide ore. The technological process includes the steps of: leaching zinc oxide ore with alkali solution; adding sulfide separating agent into filtrate after leaching; filtering to separate lead-containing filtered residue and electrolyzing the filtrate to produce zinc.The present invention has simple technological process, low production cost, high in zinc leaching out rate, reuse of waste liquid and low alkali loss.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a smelting method, in particular to a hydrometallurgy technology of zinc oxide ore. technical background [0002] The traditional smelting of zinc ore at home and abroad basically uses sphalerite. With years of mining, the source of this ore has become less and less, and the grade has gradually decreased. People have begun to pay attention to zinc oxide ore, but it is not feasible to extract zinc from zinc oxide ore by smelting sphalerite, so it is very important to develop new technologies. At present, the commonly used method is high-temperature evaporation-adding acid solution-electrolysis. This method has complicated process, high production cost, and sometimes produces industrial waste pollution. Contents of the invention [0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for producing high-purity metal zinc from zinc oxide ore. The process is simple, the production cost is low, ...
