Description

Smelting furnace and smelting method for extracting valuable metals from laterite-nickel ore
Technical Field
The invention relates to a smelting furnace and a smelting method for extracting valuable metals from laterite-nickel ore, belonging to the technical field of comprehensive recovery of non-ferrous metals.
Background
At present, most of laterite-nickel ores are low-grade laterite-nickel ores with nickel grade of 0.8-1.8% and iron grade of 15-45%. The development and utilization processes of the laterite-nickel ore mainly comprise three main types, namely a wet leaching process, a pyrometallurgical process and a reduction roasting-magnetic separation process. The wet leaching process comprises a reduction roasting-ammonia leaching process, a pressure acid leaching process, an atmospheric pressure acid leaching process and a microorganism leaching process, and all the methods can effectively treat the laterite-nickel ore, but have the inevitable defects of high cost, large investment, difficult maintenance and the like.
Due to the large demand of nickel in the stainless steel industry of China, 70% of nickel on the market is processed and produced by a pyrometallurgical process, the pyrometallurgical process can be divided into a reduction smelting ferronickel process and a reduction smelting nickel matte process according to different products generated by the pyrometallurgical process, the reduction smelting ferronickel process has high energy consumption and high requirements on raw ores, and the process for preparing nickel matte by reduction smelting has high treatment difficulty. Therefore, it is an urgent need to solve the problem of high energy consumption and to find an effective pyrometallurgical process.
The Chinese patent application CN105463214A discloses a method for producing ferronickel by using low-grade laterite-nickel ore, which adopts the technology of first-stage reduction and second-stage smelting to process low-grade laterite to generate ferronickel products. However, the two-stage treatment process has long flow, and the temperature for smelting and generating the nickel-iron alloy is high, so that the energy consumption is increased.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, one of the purposes of the invention is to provide a smelting furnace for extracting valuable metals from laterite-nickel ore so as to solve the problem that the prior art is difficult to efficiently utilize low-grade laterite-nickel ore; the invention also aims to provide a smelting method for extracting valuable metals from the laterite-nickel ore.
In order to solve the technical problems, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
a smelting furnace for extracting valuable metals from laterite-nickel ore comprises a furnace body with a furnace chamber, wherein the furnace body is sequentially divided into a furnace cylinder section, a furnace body section and a furnace top section from bottom to top; one side of the bottom of the hearth section is communicated with an electric heating forehearth, the electric heating forehearth is provided with a slag discharge port and a siphon port, the position of the inner end of the siphon port is lower than that of the inner end of the slag discharge port, and the bottom area of the inner cavity of the electric heating forehearth is 1/2-3/2 of that of the inner cavity of the hearth section; the inner bottom surface of the hearth section is inclined towards the direction of the electric heating front bed, and the included angle between the inner bottom surface of the hearth section and the horizontal plane is 5-20 degrees.
The smelting furnace is divided into a smelting area and a dilution area, the laterite-nickel ore is smelted by side blowing in the smelting area and enters an electric heating fore-hearth, smelting materials are diluted by the electric heating fore-hearth, and the smelting materials are settled and layered to generate nickel matte and the like, so that the problem of large slag quantity of low-grade laterite-nickel ore can be successfully solved.
The electric heating forehearth is heated by adopting electrodes, after the laterite-nickel ore is smelted in a furnace chamber, the metal is melted and transferred to the electric heating forehearth for sedimentation and layering, a slag discharge port and a siphon port are arranged in the electric heating forehearth, and the layered slag phase and the layered metal are respectively discharged from the slag discharge port and the siphon port. The reason is that the laterite-nickel ore has low nickel grade, large slag quantity, small volume of the conventional furnace chamber, short retention time of materials in the furnace chamber, difficult obtainment of obvious nickel matte layer, high cost and complicated engineering when the furnace chamber is arranged too large. In order to solve the problem, the smelting material is transferred to an electric heating forehearth for sedimentation, the sedimentation time of nickel matte is prolonged, and the amount of the nickel matte in the forehearth is increased to enable the nickel matte to generate an obvious nickel matte layer, so that the aim of slag matte layering is fulfilled, and the slag phase and the valuable metal phase in the low-grade laterite-nickel ore can be effectively separated and enriched.
The hearth section is communicated with the electric heating forehearth, so that the low-grade laterite-nickel ore is smelted in a side-blown furnace, slag phases and metal phases enter the electric heating forehearth to be clarified and layered together, the electric heating forehearth of the furnace is large in size, and the surface area of the bottom of the inner cavity of the electric heating forehearth is 1/2-3/2 of the surface area of the bottom of the inner cavity of the hearth, so that more slag phases can be placed, more metal liquid phases can be accumulated more easily, the slag phases and the metal phases are layered obviously, the purpose of slag-liquid separation is achieved, and valuable metals in the low-grade laterite-nickel ore are extracted and utilized efficiently.
Further, the bottom area of the inner cavity of the electric heating front bed is not less than 5m2
Further, the bottom area of the inner cavity of the bed before electric heating is 8-12 square meters.
Furthermore, a first charging opening and a second charging opening are arranged on the furnace body section. Generally, the first feed inlet is used as a main feed inlet, and the second feed inlet is used as a standby feed inlet.
Furthermore, a first water jacket, a second water jacket and a third water jacket are sequentially distributed on the furnace body section from bottom to top.
Further, the smelting furnace still includes primary air pipe and secondary air pipe, the furnace chamber section intercommunication that primary air pipe and first water jacket correspond, the furnace chamber section intercommunication that secondary air pipe and third water jacket correspond. Generally, the secondary air pipe is filled with air, the primary air pipe is filled with natural gas and oxygen-enriched air, and the secondary air pipe is used for completely burning CO in the furnace.
In order to facilitate the smelted materials to flow to the electric heating forehearth from the hearth section and to be layered, the bottom of the inner cavity of the hearth section inclines to 5-20 degrees towards the electric heating forehearth, so that certain flow speed can be ensured, but the flow speed is not too fast.
Based on the same inventive concept, the invention also provides a smelting method for extracting valuable metals from the laterite-nickel ore, which comprises the following steps:
s1, mixing the laterite-nickel ore, the reducing agent, the matte making agent and the flux according to the mass ratio of 100:5-20:5-30:5-30 to obtain a mixture;
wherein the nickel content in the laterite-nickel ore is 0.5-3 wt%; the flux is prepared from limestone and sodium carbonate according to the proportion of 1-5: 1 by mass ratio;
s2, adding the mixture obtained in the step S1 into the smelting furnace, smelting, discharging slag phase through a slag discharge port, and leading out metal phase through a siphon port;
wherein, during smelting, the temperature in the furnace body is controlled to be 1000-1400 ℃, and preferably 1000-1200 ℃.
Further, before S1, a step of drying the lateritic nickel ore, preferably low temperature drying, is also included, optionally, the water content of the lateritic nickel ore after drying is lower than 30wt%, preferably lower than 20 wt%.
Further, in S1, the mass ratio of the laterite-nickel ore, the reducing agent, the matte making agent and the flux is 100:5-15:10-25: 8-20.
The reducing agent mainly aims at supplying heat and promoting the reaction of nickel oxide and a vulcanizing agent to generate nickel sulfide in the sulfur-making smelting process, when the using amount is too high, direct reduction of the nickel oxide can be caused, and when the using amount is too low, the reaction promoting effect cannot be realized, and the consumption of natural gas is increased, so that the amount of the reducing agent is controlled to be 5-15 wt% of that of the laterite-nickel ore. The using amount of the sulfur-making agent is controlled to be 10-25 wt% of the laterite-nickel ore, so that the complete vulcanization of nickel oxide can be ensured, and the waste of a vulcanizing agent is not caused. Limestone and sodium carbonate react with silicates in laterite ore to produce low melting point alkali silicate to lower the melting point of the system, promote the flow deposition of nickel and sulfur, and promote the release of sulfur from nickel in silicate.
Further, in S1, the reducing agent is pulverized coal and/or coke; the sulfonium making agent is selected from one or more of pyrite, sulfur and sulfur-containing solid waste, and is preferably pyrite.
Further, in S2, natural gas and oxygen-enriched air are introduced into the hearth section during smelting. Optionally, the oxygen concentration in the oxygen-enriched air is 20-50 vol%.
Optionally, the flux is prepared from limestone and sodium carbonate in a ratio of 1-3: 1, and mixing the components in a mass ratio of 1.
During smelting, along with the addition of materials and the derivation of a slag phase and a metal phase, the smelting materials in the hearth section automatically enter an electric heating forehearth, and the electric heating forehearth is used for diluting the smelting materials and layering the smelting materials to form a new slag phase and a new metal phase.
The main reactions in the smelting process are as follows:
(1) oxidation-reduction reaction:
2NiO+FeS2+C=Ni2S+FeS+CO
Ni2S +FeS2=2NiS+FeS
CuO+FeS2+C=Cu2S+FeS+CO
Cu2S +FeS2=2CuS+FeS
2CO+O2=2CO2
(2) slagging reaction
CaO+SiO2=CaO·SiO2
Na2O+SiO2=Na2O·SiO2
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
1) the laterite-nickel ore can be directly smelted in a smelting furnace after being mixed with additives, flux and the like, pelletizing treatment is not needed, and the smelting process is simplified.
2) The smelting furnace can directly perform oxygen-enriched smelting on low-grade laterite-nickel ore with high efficiency and low energy consumption to generate metal phases such as nickel matte, nickel matte and the like with economic value, and obtain the metal phase with the nickel taste higher than 20 wt%.
3) The smelting furnace has large treatment capacity and high smelting speed, effectively solves the problem of large slag quantity, and can efficiently treat low-grade nonferrous metals.
4) Compared with CN105463214A, the invention directly adopts side-blown smelting to generate nickel matte, thereby effectively reducing the smelting difficulty and reducing the energy consumption, and compared with the conventional side-blown furnace for processing laterite-nickel ore, the invention successfully solves the problem of solid-liquid delamination because of low taste, large slag amount and difficult solid-liquid delamination, thereby causing the difficult recovery of nickel.
