Abstract

Abstract:

To solve the problems of long process and large amount of pollutants in metal extraction of waste zinc-based desulfurizer and copper-zinc-based catalyst, a technical method of efficient and clean synergistic separation and utilization of the copper and zinc in the two materials by vacuum carbothermal reduction method was proposed. On the basis of the characterizations of the chemical composition and main phase of the waste desulfurizer and copper-zinc-based catalyst, the experimental study of vacuum carbothermal synergistic extraction and separation of copper and zinc was carried out. The optimum zinc volatilization process conditions were obtained by adjusting the heating temperature, holding time and batch ratio, and the process mechanism was analyzed in depth. The results showed that the waste desulfurizer with ZnS as the main phase and the scrap copper-zinc-based catalyst with CuO and ZnO as the main phase could effectively reduce and volatilize the zinc in the two materials during vacuum carbothermal reduction. The mixture of copper-zinc-based catalyst, desulfurizer, and carbon with C∶ (ZnO + CuO) as 1∶1 (molar ratio) and CuO∶ZnS as 2∶1 (molar ratio) was heated to 1100℃ for 60min, the reduction and volatilization rate of zinc reached 99.56%, and the copper grade in the reduced slag was 59.46% with the copper existing mainly as Cu_1.96S, which could be used as ice copper blowing raw materials.

Key words: zinc-based desulfurizer, copper-zinc-based catalyst, vacuum carbothermal reduction, synergistic utilization, recovery, phase equilibria, catalyst

摘要：

针对废锌基脱硫剂及铜锌基催化剂中金属提取工艺流程长、污染物产生量大的问题，提出了利用真空碳热还原方法将两种物料中铜和锌实现高效、清洁协同分离利用的技术思路。在对废脱硫剂、铜锌基催化剂化学成分及主要物相检测的基础上进行了真空碳热协同提取分离铜和锌的实验研究，通过调整加热温度、保温时间、配料比等获得了较优的锌挥发工艺条件，并深入分析了工艺机理。研究结果表明，以ZnS为主要物相的废脱硫剂和以CuO和ZnO为主要物相的废铜锌基催化剂协同在真空碳热还原时可有效地将两种物料中的锌充分还原挥发。铜锌基催化剂、脱硫剂及碳以C∶(ZnO+CuO)=1∶1（摩尔比）、CuO∶ZnS=2∶1（摩尔比）的配料组成混合物料，加热至1100℃保温60min，锌的还原挥发率可达到99.56%，还原渣中铜品位可达到59.46%，还原渣中铜主要为Cu_1.96S，可作为冰铜吹炼原料使用。
