Definitions

  • This invention relates to the technical field of the recovery of metals, rare metals and rare earth metals from residues produced during the production of alumina by the Bayer process (known as “red mud”).
  • the invention relates to the extraction of scandium, yttrium, lanthanum, aluminium, iron, titanium, gallium and any other metals, rare metals and rare earth metals present in the so-called red mud, which is a side-product obtained during the Bayer process for the extraction of alumina from bauxite.
  • the process in its entirety, according to the invention results in the formation of a concentrate containing the elements of interest and the subsequent selective separation of compounds containing the elements of interest.
  • the entire process is conceived in such a way as to transform a waste to be disposed of in landfill into a series of products which can be reused in the Bayer process or which can be re-inserted in the reference markets, without producing further waste, thus following the principles of zero waste and circular economy.
  • the invention therefore has a strong economic and ecological importance.
  • composition of the bauxites used for the production of alumina with the Bayer process can differ according to the mine of origin, they all contain oxides of Al, Ti, Fe and Si in various compositions and percentages; moreover, there are traces of other elements such as zinc, vanadium and some rare and rare earth metals.
  • the extraction efficiency of the Bayer process is very low and this results in the presence of large quantities of metallic elements in the processing waste, generally called “red mud”.
  • Table 1 indicates a typical composition of a red mud produced by the Bayer process.
  • Table 2 shows the trace elements and the rare earths present in a NALCO red mud.
  • red muds if they are not neutralized, have an extremely basic pH (approx. pH 12.5).
  • the red muds are diluted, so that they can be more easily pumped, and are sent to a pressure filter, where some components are recovered; then, in the form of sludge, they are pumped away from the plant to be disposed of in disposal basins, similar to artificial lagoons.
  • This practice has a significant environmental impact since these wastes are not disposed of efficiently and an industrial application has still not been found which is able to absorb the considerable quantity of material produced each year.
  • Red muds therefore potentially have extremely significant impacts, the management of which still currently constitutes a serious problem. Even though the red muds are currently managed in such a way as to minimize the impacts, they still represent an enormous hazard for human health; moreover, some sites still feel the effects of an incorrect management in the past.
  • the surface deposits where the red muds are stored must be constructed and managed with particular care to avoid contamination of the ground water and the surrounding soils and to prevent dusty material from being dispersed into the air, thus causing harmful effects for the health; in fact, these dusts are of an extremely alkaline nature and cause irritation of the skin, eyes and the respiratory system.
  • the bauxite in the Bayer process contains, as well as the main elements indicated above, also compounds containing rare and rare earth metals, which can be potentially exploited but the concentration of which is too low to promote an economically sustainable extraction process.
  • the type and concentration of the rare and rare earth metals present varies according to the type of bauxite used; however, amongst those with the highest concentration there is, for example, gallium and scandium. Due to the effect of the extraction of the alumina during the Bayer process, these rare and rare earth metals are also concentrated in the red muds produced, with the result of reaching concentration values which, even though they are still very low, are sufficient to encourage an extraction process.
  • concentration values which, even though they are still very low, are sufficient to encourage an extraction process.
  • the typical composition data of a red mud is shown in Tables 1 and 2 above.
  • the process allows the elements of interest present in the red muds to be concentrated in smaller fractions, having a chemical composition and physical state such as to render technologically easy their further separation and refinement.
  • the final products produced can be sent to the start of the Bayer process or sold on the reference markets.
  • This invention therefore relates specifically to a process in which the metals, rare metals and rare earth metals present in the powdery by-products coming from the processing of the bauxite (red muds) are concentrated, through a multistage process, until reaching values such as to allow an extraction and separation which is industrially efficient.
  • the invention also relates to the process for separating the elements of interest, through a multistage process, transforming them into single products to be re-used in the Bayer process and/or sending them to the respective reference markets.
  • IB 4 ( % ⁇ CaO ) + ( % ⁇ MgO ) ( % ⁇ SiO 2 ) + ( % ⁇ Al 2 ⁇ O 3 )
  • the basicity index in the conditions of the melting process in question, can vary from 0.1 a 2.0, according to the type of red mud to be treated.
  • these fly ashes come from the combustion of coal (Coal Fly Ash) and have the further advantages of containing, in turn, rare and rare earth metals.
  • the rare and rare earth metals present are drawn into the fraction operatively indicates as “slag”, which is subjected to the subsequent operations.
  • the metallic iron produced which is of poor quality, equivalent to a pig iron, may be directed to the reference markets.
  • the liquid obtained during the basic leaching contains mainly aluminium in the form of hydrated salt of an alkaline or alkaline earth metal, but it also contains hydrated silica; this liquid is firstly treated with milk of lime, to eliminate the silica; subsequently, the liquid is treated with CO 2 .
  • the buffering effect of the carbon dioxide brings the pH to a value such as to precipitate Al(OH) 3 .
  • the solid obtained in this way is separated and calcined, producing Al 2 O 3 .
  • the separated liquid returns to the start of the alkaline leaching section, whilst the separated hydrated silica is characterized in order to direct it to the correct recovery.
  • the ratio (weight/volume) between the solid to be treated and the acid solution is between 1/2 and 1/50.
  • the temperature of the system during the leaching is between 40° C. and 95° C. at atmospheric pressure.
  • the duration of the leaching reaction time can range from 15 minutes to 120 minutes.
  • the solid separated at the end of the leaching reaction time can, if necessary, be subjected to a new leaching step, similar to the previous one.
  • the solution extracts the rare and the rare earth metals present (plus the aluminium, the titanium and the other elements present in smaller concentrations), whilst the majority of the iron present in the slag remains in the insolubilized residue; the latter is separated from the acid leaching liquid, by known means, such as, for example, decantation and filtration, and may be treated for the extraction of aluminium and silicon compounds, according to the methods described in the case of alternative A of the second concentrating step.
  • the liquid resulting from the acid leaching is sent, after filtration, to the next third concentrating step.
  • the resins “capture” the rare and the rare earth metals present in the alkaline solution (such as, for example, scandium, yttrium and lanthanum), and block them on the active sites of the resin, thereby concentrating them.
  • alkaline solution such as, for example, scandium, yttrium and lanthanum
  • the separation of the undesired elements is achieved by processing the resins with an extracting solution of HNO 3 with a concentration of between 1.25 N and 1.75 N; in fact, with this concentration, only iron, aluminium, calcium, titanium and sodium are selectively brought into solution, whilst the rare and rare earth metals of interest remain blocked on the resins.
  • the rare and rare earth metals of interest are extracted and concentrated in acid solution, simultaneously regenerating the resins and making them available for a subsequent concentration cycle on resins.
  • the acid solution contains an enriched mixture of rare and rare earth meals, which can be selectively separated, according to one of the prior art techniques.
  • the extraction can be carried out with organic solvents such as DEHPA (di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid).
  • the example illustrate an application of the process according to the invention.
  • a sample of red mud is dried to 250° C. and then ground.
  • the following table shows the elementary analysis of the main elements of interest present on the sample of pre-treated red mud thus obtained, used in this example.
  • the aim is to drastically reduce, selectively, the iron content present in the matrix, both to obtain a concentration effect of the elements of interest, and because the iron is an important interfering element for the processes used in the subsequent concentration and separation steps.
  • a basicity index corrector containing silica and calcium oxide, is added to the sample of red mud, suitably pre-treated.
  • the basicity corrector is added in order to obtain a binary basicity index value IB 2 of approximately 0.6.
  • the quantity of the reducing agent and the basicity index corrector added is determined, each time, on the basis of the red muds used.
  • the mixture formed by the pre-treated red mud, the basicity index corrector and the carbon is loaded in a plasma transferred arc reactor, in which the plasmogenic gas is nitrogen.
  • the system must be maintained in the reaction conditions, that is, at a temperature greater than 1300° C., until completion of the reduction reactions. In the case of the reactor used, this phenomenon occurred in approximately 60 minutes, but this time may vary on the basis of the type of technology used to reach the reaction conditions, the type of load (depending, for example, on the content of iron oxides and interfering elements present), the geometry of the reactor etc.
  • the slag and the pig iron produced are collected separately at the end of the reaction time.
  • the slag, compared with the calcined red mud, is 55% by weight; this means that the rare and the rare earth metals of interest, in the slag, should have a concentration of approximately double, with respect to the pre-treated red mud.
  • the following table shows the elementary analysis of the main elements of interest present on the sample of slag produced:
  • the concentration di Yttrium, Lanthanum and Scandium has almost doubled compared with the sample of pre-treated red mud.
  • the content of iron in the slag has considerably reduced, compared with the pre-treated red mud, falling from approximately 16.5% to approximately 2.5%.
  • the iron removed has resulted in a ferrous-based metallic phase (iron content>92%), which is similar to pig iron in terms of quality.
  • the content of aluminium before and after the treatment has a less regular trend, because the compounds containing this element also undergo reactions with the development of volatile compounds (flow managed separately and not included in the invention), so the concentration factor of this element in the slag is approximately 30%.
  • the liquid was separated from the solid by mechanical decantation, by centrifuging; the clarified liquid was then filtered and analysed.
  • the solid treated was recovered for any extraction of aluminium and silicon compounds, according to the methods described in the case of alternative A of the second concentrating step.
  • the liquid resulting from the acid leaching is sent, after filtration, to the next third concentrating step.
  • the liquid coming from the acid leaching and which contains, in solution, rare and rare earth metals, as well as a not insignificant quantity of other elements, is treated on selective ion exchange resins, of cationic type.
  • the resins “capture” the rare and the rare earth metals present in the alkaline solution (such as, for example, scandium, yttrium and lanthanum), and block them on the active sites of the resin, thereby concentrating them.
  • concentration factor of the rare and rare earth metals on the resins depends on the ratio between the volume of leaching liquid treated and the volume of the bed of selective resins. A typical concentration ratio is approximately 100 times.
  • the concentration ratio on the resins in the test in question was 20 times. A volume of 2 litres of acid solution has been treated with a volume of 0.1 litres of selective resins.
  • the 0.6 N nitric acid solution after the passage on resins, is sent to the second step, for re-use in the process, if necessary with the addition of new solution.
  • the bed of selective resins, of the cationic type is treated with a solution of nitric acid with a concentration of between 1.25 N and 1.75 N.
  • a nitric acid solution with this concentration frees from the resin only the undesired elements, leaving the rare and rare earth metals on the bed.
  • the bed of selective resins is then washed with a nitric acid solution with a concentration of between 3 N and 10 N; in these conditions, the rare and rare earth metals which were linked to the resins are removed from the bed.
  • an acid solution is generated containing a concentrate of a mixture of rare and rare earth metals.
  • concentration of the rare and rare earth metals in the resulting acid solution depends on the content (in grams) of each element in the filtering bed (degree of saturation of the filtering bed) and on the ratio between the volume of the bed of resins and the total volume of the 3 N to 6 N nitric acid solution used.
  • the 0.1 litre filter bed containing 1.8 mg of scandium, has been washed with a volume of 0.5 litres of 6 N nitric acid solution, obtaining a concentration of 3.6 mg/litre of scandium in solution.
  • the rare and rare earth metals present in the nitric acid solution obtained in this way can be separated selectively by means of one of the prior art techniques.
