Description

Smelting method of low-lead silver concentrate
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of metallurgy, in particular to a smelting method of low-lead silver concentrate.
Background
Silver is an important industrial raw material. In the current Chinese silver consumption, the industrial raw material accounts for 70% of the total consumption, and along with the expansion of the application field of the silver, the demand of the silver is continuously increased. At present, domestic silver production mainly comes from three fields of independent silver ore, associated silver ore and regeneration recovery, wherein mineral silver (comprising independent silver ore and associated silver ore) accounts for more than 60% of the total yield of silver.
The proportion of the associated silver ore is high, and the mineral composition is complex, so that the concentrate is treated in an environment-friendly and economic mode to recover valuable metals such as silver, copper, lead, zinc and the like in the associated silver ore.
Silver concentrate associated with lead and zinc exists in the form of sulphide ore, and can be beneficiated by a flotation process. For silver concentrate with higher lead grade, concentrate with lead grade of 50-60% can be obtained after ore dressing, the concentrate can be directly used as a raw material for lead smelting to obtain metallic lead, most of silver is enriched in the lead in the process, and silver is separated through electrolysis and refining of crude lead, so that lead and silver are respectively recovered.
When the lead grade in the silver concentrate is lower and the silver content is higher (the lead grade of the low-lead silver concentrate is usually less than 35 percent, and the silver grade is usually 0.03-1.5 percent), if the silver is directly recovered as a raw material through the existing smelting process, crude lead cannot be produced in the smelting stage due to the too low lead content, and crude lead and silver produced in the reduction stage are too high in content, scum is easy to separate out, a lead discharge port is blocked, and the production cannot be normally carried out. Meanwhile, the electrolytic refining of the high-silver crude lead is not mature in industrial practice, so that the problem of difficult lead-silver separation can be caused.
Aiming at the characteristics of low-lead silver concentrate, in some production processes, the concentrate and the low-silver lead concentrate are mixed to improve the lead content in the concentrate, and then the minerals are treated by a lead smelting process to recover silver, lead, copper and the like. However, in the existing production process, excessive silver remains in the obtained slag in the smelting process of mixing the low-lead silver concentrate with the low-silver lead concentrate, the silver is difficult to separate and recycle, and for the smelting process, the silver content in the smelting slag is reduced infinitely, so that the smelting slag is neither economical nor difficult to operate. In addition, the existing technology smelts the low-lead silver concentrate and the low-silver lead concentrate, although the lead-containing grade of the material fed into the furnace is improved, the silver content in the crude lead of the reduction furnace is reduced, and the normal smelting process can be ensured, the silver content of the material fed into the furnace is reduced when the material is mixed with other materials, especially the slag content in the smelting process is increased, the silver content lost with slag is also increased, and the silver recovery rate is reduced.
In a word, there is no production practice of separately treating low-lead silver concentrate at present, but when the low-lead silver concentrate is mixed with the low-lead silver concentrate, the problems of large slag quantity, low silver recovery rate and the like exist.

Detailed Description
It should be noted that, in the case of no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples.
As described in the background art, no production practice for separately treating the low-lead silver concentrate exists at present, and when the low-lead silver concentrate is mixed with the low-lead silver concentrate, the problems of large slag quantity, low silver recovery rate and the like exist. In order to solve the problem, the invention provides a smelting method of low-lead silver concentrate, wherein the silver content in the low-lead silver concentrate is 0.03-1.5 wt% and the lead content is 28-35 wt%, and the smelting method comprises the following steps: and (3) mixing and granulating: mixing and granulating the low-lead silver concentrate with a first fuel and a first flux to form mixed granules; oxidizing and smelting: putting the mixed granules into a bottom-blowing smelting furnace, blowing first oxygen into the bottom-blowing smelting furnace through a bottom-blowing spray gun to oxidize and smelt the mixed granules, and supplementing lead into the bottom-blowing smelting furnace in the oxidation smelting process to obtain a first part of lead-silver alloy, silver-rich slag and first flue gas; wherein the lead material is first desilvered lead and/or regenerated lead; a reduction smelting step: feeding the silver-rich slag into a reduction smelting furnace, blowing second oxygen into the reduction smelting furnace, and adding a first reducing agent, a second flux and a second fuel to carry out reduction smelting on the silver-rich slag to obtain a second part of lead-silver alloy, reduction slag and second flue gas; and (3) fuming reduction: and carrying out fuming reduction on the reducing slag under the action of a second reducing agent and process air to obtain fuming slag and third flue gas.
In the smelting method, the low-lead silver concentrate, the first fuel and the first flux are mixed and granulated, so that the full reaction of materials in the subsequent oxidation smelting process is facilitated, and the reaction uniformity is improved. The first flux is beneficial to reducing the melting point of low-lead silver concentrate in the smelting process, controlling slag and promoting the output of lead silver alloy in the oxidation smelting process. In the oxidation smelting process, oxygen is blown into a bottom blowing smelting furnace through a bottom blowing spray gun so as to convert part of lead and silver in the low-lead silver concentrate from a sulfuration state to an oxidation state, and further reaction between the generated lead and silver sulfide and the lead and silver sulfide is promoted to produce a first part of lead and silver alloy. It is emphasized that during this process, the smelting system is fed with desilvered lead and/or recycled lead, on the one hand, silver can be more effectively captured during the oxidation smelting step, and the lead bullion reduced during the reduction smelting step can capture silver again. The recovery rate of silver is improved by two-stage trapping. On the other hand, silver is fully trapped in the oxidation smelting stage, the problem that the content of scum is increased easily caused by enrichment of silver (and other metal elements contained in mineral aggregate such as copper) in the crude lead of the reduction smelting furnace is avoided, the problem that the system operation rate is influenced by blockage of a siphon port of the reduction smelting furnace is avoided, the treatment capacity of a production line is ensured, and the economic benefit is improved. In addition, the introduction of desilvered lead and regenerated lead can also effectively reduce the slag quantity. After the oxidation bottom blowing smelting, the produced silver-rich slag enters a reduction smelting furnace, and is further subjected to reduction smelting under the action of a first reducing agent, a second flux and a second fuel, wherein the oxidized lead silver can be further reduced to produce a second part of lead silver alloy. Finally, the reducing slag is further reduced by fuming, so that the residual valuable metals (silver, lead, zinc and the like) in the reducing slag can be reduced, and volatilized into smoke dust for subsequent collection.
In a word, by using the smelting method of the low-lead silver concentrate provided by the invention, the low-lead silver concentrate can be economically and effectively treated by the oxidation smelting-silver-rich slag direct reduction smelting-reducing slag fuming reduction process of the low-lead silver concentrate, the production process is smooth, the slag quantity is small, and the recovery rate of silver is higher.
In the above treatment, the silver content of the silver-rich slag obtained is usually 0.05 to 1.8wt%.
In a preferred embodiment, the above smelting method further comprises the steps of: and mixing the first part of lead-silver alloy and the second part of lead-silver alloy, and then adding zinc to remove silver to obtain silver-zinc alloy (the silver content is 10-12 wt%) and liquid second desilverized lead. The lead and silver in the lead-silver alloy can be separated by adding zinc to remove silver, so that a silver-zinc alloy and a second desilvered lead are generated. The above-mentioned fed lead material can be solid lead or liquid lead, for example, can be directly fed with regenerated lead, such as solid lead and/or lead grid, etc., and can be directly fed into bottom-blowing smelting furnace by means of charging inlet. More preferably, at least a part of the liquid second desilvered lead is used as the first desilvered lead. So that at least part of the liquid second desilvered lead can be directly returned to the oxidation smelting step to be used as the fed lead material. Thus, the trapping of silver in the oxidation smelting and reduction smelting processes can be promoted, the silver recovery rate is improved, and the raw material cost and the energy consumption are saved. In the specific feeding process, a pump can be directly adopted to pump the liquid desilvered lead into the bottom blowing smelting furnace.
In the bottom blowing smelting process, part of lead sulfide and silver sulfide in the mineral aggregate can be oxidized into lead oxide and silver oxide, the generated lead oxide and silver oxide can further react with the rest of lead sulfide and silver sulfide to generate lead and silver, and the generated silver simple substance can be fully trapped in lead through the fed lead aggregate, so that a first part of lead-silver alloy is produced. Preferably, in the oxidation smelting step, the addition amount of the lead material is 25-35% of the weight of the low-lead silver concentrate, and the smelting temperature is 1080-1150 ℃. The supplementing amount of the lead material is controlled within the range, so that silver can be more effectively captured, the recovery rate of silver is improved, and waste of lead is avoided. By controlling the smelting process conditions within the above-described range, oxidation smelting can be promoted to proceed more sufficiently.
More preferably, the blowing amount of the first oxygen per ton of the mixed pellets is 80-120 Nm 3 And/h. The oxygen injection quantity is controlled within the range, so that on one hand, transitional oxidation is avoided, and the recovery of the lead-silver alloy in the first stage is ensured; on the other hand, the problem of excessive scum caused by insufficient oxidation can be avoided, and the recovery of lead and silver is also facilitated. In order to protect the bottom-blowing lance during actual production, it is more preferable to simultaneously blow nitrogen and demineralized water into the bottom-blowing smelting furnace during the blowing of the first oxygen. In the specific blowing process, nitrogen and desalted water can be respectively sprayed into the same spray gun through different channels. In practice, oxygen, nitrogen and desalted water are preferably injected into the furnace through different channels of the same spray gun.

Preferably, in the mixing granulation step, the amount of the first fuel is 0.5 to 1.5% by weight of the low-lead silver concentrate, and the amount of the first flux is 2 to 6% by weight of the low-lead silver concentrate. The amount of each raw material is controlled within the above range, which is favorable for more fully carrying out the oxidation smelting reaction. In addition, in order to make the pelletization process more stable and environment-friendly, in a preferred embodiment, industrial water is added to mix and pelletize the low-lead silver concentrate, the first fuel and the first flux. The specific industrial water addition amount can be adjusted, and the granulation can be carried out. Preferably, the particle size of the mixed pellets is controlled to be 1 to 2.5 cm.
The specific types of first reductant and second fuel described above may be of the type commonly used in the art, and in a more preferred embodiment, the first reductant includes, but is not limited to, one or more of pulverized coal, lump coal (20-30 mm), natural gas, coke; the second flux includes, but is not limited to, limestone; the secondary fuel includes, but is not limited to, one or more of pulverized coal, crushed coal.
In order to fully reduce the silver oxide and lead oxide in the silver-rich slag, the amount of the first reducing agent is preferably 4-8% of the weight of the silver-rich slag; the dosage of the second flux is 3-6% of the weight of the silver-rich slag; the dosage of the second fuel is 0.5-5% of the weight of the silver-rich slag. In the actual production process, the silver-rich slag in a liquid state produced in the oxidation smelting step is preferably directly put into a reduction smelting furnace for reduction smelting.
In a preferred embodiment, in the reduction smelting step, the injection amount of the second oxygen corresponding to each ton of silver-rich slag is 30-80 Nm 3 And/h, wherein the smelting temperature is 1150-1250 ℃. Under the process conditions, lead oxide and silver oxide in the silver-rich slag can be promoted to be reduced into simple substances more fully, and the secondary trapping of lead to silver is more sufficient, so that the method has better promotion effect on improving the recovery rate of lead and silver.
The specific feeding mode in the reduction smelting process is not limited, for example, gaseous materials and powder materials are sprayed through a side-blowing or bottom-blowing spray gun, and the rest materials are added through a feeding hole. In a preferred embodiment, the reduction smelting step includes: mixing the second flux, the second fuel, the smoke dust and the industrial water to obtain a mixed material; and sending the silver-rich slag into a reduction smelting furnace, blowing second oxygen into the reduction smelting furnace, and adding the first reducing agent and the mixed material to carry out reduction smelting on the silver-rich slag to obtain a second part of lead-silver alloy, reduction slag and second smoke. When the first reductant is selected from pulverized coal, natural gas, etc., it is preferably injected through a lance. When the first reducing agent is selected from the group consisting of lump coal, coke, and the like, it is preferable that the first reducing agent is mixed with the second flux, the second fuel, and industrial water to obtain a mixed material, and then the mixed material is charged into the reduction smelting furnace. The lance in the reduction smelting process may be a bottom-blowing lance or a side-blowing lance. Preferably, in the reduction smelting step, nitrogen and demineralized water are simultaneously injected into the reduction smelting furnace for protecting the lance.
The type of the second reducing agent may be of a type commonly used in the art, for example, the second reducing agent includes, but is not limited to, one or more of pulverized coal, natural gas, crushed coal; preferably, the second reducing agent is used in an amount of 15 to 25% by weight of the reducing slag, and the temperature during fuming reduction is 1150 to 1250 ℃. Under the process conditions, valuable metals in the reducing slag can be fully reduced and volatilized, and the recovery of the valuable metals is improved. The obtained fuming slag can be sent to a water quenching system for treatment so as to carry out slag granulation operation.
And after the first lead-silver alloy produced in the oxidation smelting step and the second lead-silver alloy produced in the reduction smelting step are mixed, the lead and the silver can be separated by adding zinc to remove silver, so that the silver-zinc alloy and the second desilvered lead are obtained. The specific zinc adding and silver removing process preferably comprises the following steps: the separation of lead and silver is achieved by mixing the lead and silver alloy, then fire refining (during which a portion of the zinc is replenished), and then zinc addition and silver removal, such as: zinc is added into a lead-silver alloy melt in the form of a metal zinc block, the temperature of the melt is 420-455 ℃, the lead smelting is sampled after the zinc block is added, when the silver content is reduced to 10-20 g/t, the silver-zinc alloy floating on the surface of the lead liquid is fished out, and the added zinc amount can be calculated according to the silver content of crude lead, which is understood by those skilled in the art and is not repeated. More preferably, the silver-zinc alloy is refined to obtain metallic silver. Preferably, 5 to 100 percent of the second desilvered lead is returned as lead material to be fed into the oxidation smelting stage, and the rest of the second desilvered lead is taken as lead product.
