ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
To enable its removal down to very low levels from zinc sulfate solutions or slurries, iron is oxidized to the ferric state by using sulfur dioxide/oxygen mixtures under specified conditions.
To enable its removal down to very low levels from zinc sulfate solutions or slurries, iron is oxidized to the ferric state by using sulfur dioxide/oxygen mixtures under specified conditions.
Description
~04Q8~7 The present invention relates to improvements in a process for the separation of iron from zinc solutions or slurries.
In the hydrometallurgical production of zinc a zinc sulfate liquor is produced by leaching the "calcine"
(essentially zinc oxide) resulting from the roasting of sulfide ores. This liquor usually contains some iron and prior to the electrowinning of zinc from the liquor it is necessary to remove any iron present. In general, the removal of iron involves firstly the oxidation of any ferrous iron to the ferric state and subsequently preci-pitation of the ferric iron.
A known method of oxidizing ferrous iron to ferric iron in ~olutions such as nickel and cobalt sulfates involves the use of sulfur dioxide/oxygen mixtures. This method is described in U.S. Patent No. 2,816,819. However while this method is well-known in the context of the extraction of nickel or cobalt, it has never been considered in the context of zinc production. This may be due to the 2Q fear of build up of sulfate ions in the electrolyte which is continuously recirculated during the leaching/electro-winning process.
Whatever the reasons may be, it is a fact thatthe oxidation process described in U.S. Patent No. 2,816,819, has never been advocated for use in zinc solutions or slurries and thus its effectiveness in enabling the removal of iron down to the desired very low levels in such media has never heretofore been determined. Instead in present zinc refining practice the oxidation of ferrous iron is commonly performed with the aid of manganese dioxide. While the cost ,, ' , 104~)8f~
of this oxidant is low, a practical disadvantage of the procesQ is the tendency for the liquor to pick up manga-nese which subsequently precipitates anodically during the electrowinning.
Alternative oxidants for achieving the ~errous to ferric oxidation include potassium permanganate but this has not gained widespread use for economic reasons.
The use of air as an oxidant ha~ been considered but it has been reported that practicable rates of oxidàtion are achieved only at pH values of 5 or more. Working at such pH's is undesirable due to the possibility of hydro-lizing any copper values present.
It has been no~ found that suitably chosen gaseous mixtures of sulfur dioxide and oxygen are capable of oxidizing the iron in a zinc sulfate liquor or slurry at a practicable rate, provide an improved method of oxidizing the iron to enable its removal down to very low levels without introducing undesirable ions, such as manganese, into the system. Moreover it has been found that the use of such gaseous mixtures does not cause significant suIfate ion build up, and that any build up which does occur aan be controlled bleeding such as precipitation of calcium sulfate, or preferably precipitation of some or all of the oxidized iron as a basic ferric sulfate.
According to the invention, in a process for separating iron from a zinc sulfate solution or slurry wherein any ferrous iron present is converted to ferric iron and thereafter separated by precipitation, the im- -provement comprises adjusting the solution pH, if necessary, to a value between 0.5 and 4.0 and the solution temperature 104~)8~7 to at least 50C while contacting the solution with a gaseous mixture containing oxygen and sulfur dioxide, the volume ratio of oxygen to sulfur dioxide being between 400:1 and 1:1, to effect oxidation of the iron.
The sulfur dioxide~oxygen mixture is effective for oxidizing iron whether the lattex be entirely in solution or wholly or partly in ~olid form as a precipitate in the slurry. While a wide range of gas mixture composi-tions can be used for the oxidation, i.e. an oxygen to sulfur dioxide ratio from as low as 400:1 to as high as the theoretical maximum of 1:1, the reaction kinetics may be unsatisfactory at very low sulfur dioxide contents. A
preferred gas composition is one where the oxygen to sulfur dioxide ratio ~ls betweeh 39:1 and 9:1, e.g. a gas mixture containing 5~ by volume of sulfur dioxide, the balance being oxygen.
The solution should be maintained at a temperature of at least 50C, commensurate with a satisfactory reaction rate. In general temperatures within the range 85C-95a~.
Advantageously the pH of the solution is adjusted to a value of from 1.8 to 3Ø
Where the pH of the solution is maintained at a value of 3.5 or higher during the oxidation, the ferric iron will precipitate in the course of the oxidation as a hydroxide. Where the pH is maintained during the oxidation at a value of say 1.8-~.0, it is necessary to adjust the pH subsequent to oxidation in order to precipitate the oxidized iron. This adjustment may consist of adding calcine or otheswise raising the pH to 3.5 to precipitate ~erric h~xxldo, Alternatively, the solution can be .
~, . ,, , , ~
acidified to a pH of 1.5 or less in the presence of potassium, sodium or ammonium ions thereby precipitating a basic ferric sulfate.
According to one aspect of the present invention substantially all the oxidized iron is precipitated as a hydroxide. If this process is used on a continuous basis whereby the spent solution is recycled to the leaching operation, there is a need for preventing sulfate build up in the solution. This tends to occur because of the presence of some zinc sulfate in the calcine, and, possibly to a slight extent, because of the use of sulfur dioxide/oxygen mixtures for the oxidation. In order to control the sulfate ion level in the recycled solution, recourse is had to selective bleeding operations where sulfate is precipitated, for example as gypsum by adding lime to the solution, or as a basic ferric sulfate as described above.
According to another aspect of the invention substantially all the iron present is precipitated as a basic ferrisulfate. The conditions for effecting such a precipitation are well ~nown and are described, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 3,434,947. Such a precipitation causes the liquid to become depleted with respect to sulfate ions.
Therefore, if the liquid is to be recirculated continuously in the leaching/electrowinning cycle, it will be necessary from time to time to replenish the electrolyte by addition of sulfuric acid thereto. ~-According to yet another aspect of the invention, the iron present is precipitated a~ basic ferrisulfate only to an extent sufficient to maintain the sulfate ion : . , , 1046)867 concentration in the electrolyte constant at the desired level. According to this aspect of the invention a sufficient amount of basic ferri~ulfate is precipitated to counteract the tendency for sulfate build up. The remainder of the iron is precipitated as a hydroxide by raising the pH of the liquid to about 3.5 at the completion of the oxidizing step.
The invention will now be particularly described with reference to specific examples.
A clear solution was used, containing approximately 100 g/l of zinc, 2 g/l of manganese and 2 g/l of ammonium ions in a sulfate medium. U~ing 1 litre of this solution a gaseous mixture having the composition of 5-10% by volume of sulfur dioxide, balance oxygen, was bubbled through the solution at a flow rate corresponding to 200 ml/minute of oxygen. The temperature was maintained at 85C during the oxidation process which lasted two hours. The solution pH dropped in the course of the process from an initial value of 2.7 to a final value of 1.8.
The ferrous ions concentration was reduced in the course of the proce~s from 5.9 g/l to trace level. At the end of the oxidation proces~ the pH was increased to 3.5 by addition of calcine. Following precipitation of the ferric ions, the solution was analyzed for iron and found to contain only a trace level thereof.
In these examples a slurry was used which comprised a liquor having a ~imilar composition to the solution of Example 1 and containing the solid residue from a calcine leach.
