摘要:
对贵州某载锗闪锌矿进行了锌活化剂优化试验研究, 用新型无机活化剂X-43与传统活化剂硫酸铜进行了对比。在石灰用量1 500 g/t、X-43活化剂用量700 g/t、捕收剂用量150 g/t的最佳条件下, 锌精矿中锌的品位和回收率分别为52.87%和67.24%, 锗的品位和回收率分别为715.30 g/t和63.36%。与使用硫酸铜相比, 使用X-43获得的锌精矿中锌品位高0.83百分点, 锌回收率高4.27百分点; 锗品位高8.4 g/t, 锗回收率高6.79百分点。试验结果表明, 相比传统的活化剂硫酸铜, 新型活化剂X-43的活化能力更强, 选择性更好。
Abstract:The optimization tests of zinc activator were carried out with a germanium-bearing sphalerite ore in Guizhou. The comparative tests were carried out with the novel inorganic activator X-43 and the traditional activator copper sulfate. Under the optimal conditions of lime dosage of 1 500 g/t, X-43 activator dosage of 700 g/t and collector dosage of 150 g/t, the grade and recovery of zinc in zinc concentrate were 52.87% and 67.24% respectively, and the grade and recovery of germanium were 715.30 g/t and 63.36% respectively. Compared with the use of copper sulfate, the zinc grade obtained by using X-43 increased 0.83 percent, and the zinc recovery increased 4.27 percent; the germanium grade increased 8.4 g/t, and the germanium recovery increased 6.79 percent. The results showed that compared with the traditional activator copper sulfate, the novel activator X-43 has stronger activation ability and better selectivity.
