Description

The low acid consumption biological dump leaching novel process of the low-grade nickel sulfide ore of a kind of high magnesium types
Technical field
The present invention relates to the low acid consumption biological dump leaching novel process of the low-grade nickel sulfide ore of a kind of high magnesium types.
Background technology
Explored nickel minerals point more than 80 place of China, basic unit price is 1,000 ten thousand tons, and account for the 8th, the world, wherein sulphide ores accounts for 86% of total nickel reserves.The nickel sulfide ore Jinchuan Nickel Mine that China is maximum, nickel metal reserves 5,480,000 tons, account for 68.5% of national total reserves, but the average grade of Jinchuan more than 2/3 nickel sulfide ores only has 0.6%, and content of MgO, up to 30 ~ 35%, is the low-grade nickel sulfide ore of typical high magnesium types in ore.
For the low-grade nickel sulfide ore of high magnesium types, traditional treatment process is flotation-pyrometallurgical smelting, but usually because content of MgO in flotation concentrate is too high, smelting cost is caused to increase, and slag phase viscosity therefore can be caused excessive and cause stove dross, slag is separated difficulty, reduces smelting recovery.At wet-leaching process aspect, Central South University develops ammonia-ammonium salt system extract technology, and the leaching yield of nickel is only 42.86% at ambient pressure, and application practice is infeasible.Chinese patent (CN102094127B) discloses a kind of method reclaiming nickel and magnesium elements from the low-grade nickel sulfide ore of high magnesium types.After calcining 1 ~ 3h at-200 order sample ores and ammonium sulfate are blended in 350 ~ 450 DEG C, sample ore leaches 1 ~ 3h through the aqueous solution, and leaching slag adopts Bioleaching again.This technique ore grinding, calcining cost are high, are not suitable for for low-grade nickel sulfide ore.In bioleaching process, Chinese patent (CN100422358C) is by adding pyrite or SULPHUR POWDER, utilize bacterium autoxidation to produce acid and maintain the leaching containing basic gangue sulphide ores, but interpolation pyrite or SULPHUR POWDER need be considered cost and carry out source problem, and for high magnesium types sulphide ores (being greater than 12% containing magnesium oxide) even if the pyrite of interpolation 10%, the sour consumption of reality when high magnesium types ore leaches can not be met.Consumption acids magnesium-containing mineral during Central South University utilizes the smelting acid waste water of Jinchuan smeltery complete and in ore, then carry out standard biologic leaching, obtain the leaching efficiency of Ni84.6%, Co75.0%, Cu32.6%, but acid consumption reaches 600kg/t ore deposit.This kind of technique is adopted to there are following three problems: 1. in solution, Mg content will reach 20 ~ 40g/L, be 50 ~ 100 times of Ni content, will cause serious challenge to the recovery of the separation of Ni, Mg in solution and nickel.2. bacterium has certain resistance to limited for the Mg2+ concentration of high density, generally more than 20g/L by complete Antibacterial activity, cause Bioleaching failure.3. sour source and Cost Problems.This technique is only applicable to the mine that sulfuric acid does not assess the cost, and for the mine that sulfuric acid assesses the cost, only sulfuric acid consumption takes the value that one just may exceed ore itself.
Therefore, for the low-grade nickel sulfide ore of high magnesium types, need a kind of new technique of exploitation badly, solve the high difficult problem be separated with subsequent solution of acid consumption when leaching.
