Background
At present, the processes for recovering valuable metals such as tungsten, tantalum, niobium, cobalt, nickel and the like from metallurgical solid wastes are mainly divided into a wet process and a fire process, and the two processes have respective defects, and are specifically as follows:

The process has the defects of high acid consumption, low metal leaching rate, complex process route and large environmental pollution.
(2) The pyrometallurgical process generally employs reduction smelting, which recovers metal oxides in the slag by adding a carbonaceous reductant at high temperature and forming an alloy phase. In the carbothermic reduction process of tungsten slag, valuable metal elements such as tungsten, tantalum, niobium and the like are reduced and carbonized to form high-melting-point carbide, so that the viscosity of a slag system is increased, the aggregation and sedimentation of the carbide are not facilitated, and the slag-metal separation is difficult.

Therefore, development of a process with low energy consumption and high recovery rate of valuable metals is needed at present, and the aim of efficiently recovering the valuable metal elements in tungsten slag can be achieved.

and (3) product testing: ICP-AES analysis is carried out on the alloy cast ingot enriched with valuable metals, wherein the W content is 23%, the Co content is 23%, the Ta content is 1%, the Nb content is 1%, and the alloy mass recovery rate in the waste tungsten slag reaches 70%.
Comparative example 7
This comparative example differs from example 3 only in that: in the step (2), the mass ratio of the waste tungsten slag powder to the slag former to the composite reducing agent is 1:0.3:0.3.
and (3) product testing: ICP-AES analysis is carried out on the alloy cast ingot enriched with valuable metals, wherein the W content is 16%, the Co content is 12%, the Ta content is 2%, the Nb content is 2%, and the alloy mass recovery rate in the waste tungsten slag reaches 53%.
As can be seen from comparative example 3 and comparative examples 5 to 7, the mass ratio of the waste tungsten slag to the siliceous reducing agent does not conform to 1: (0.05-0.2), the recovery rate of the alloy element is significantly reduced.
In conclusion, on the basis of tungsten slag reduction smelting, the composite reducing agent containing the carbonaceous reducing agent and the siliceous reducing agent is adopted, so that valuable metal residues in a slag phase can be effectively reduced, the slag-gold separation effect is good, and the recovery rate of W, co, ta, nb can be remarkably improved. In addition, the method provided by the invention can also reduce the melting point and viscosity of the slag system, thereby reducing the energy consumption and having very good market application prospect.
The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention, but various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
