Experimental study on dephosphorization of braided high phosphorus hematite ore dressing

With the rapid development of China's national economy, the demand for steel is increasing iron. China's current iron ore self-sufficiency rate is 50% to 60%, iron ore resources will be seriously insufficient, unable to meet the steel industry's demand for raw materials. However, China has a high- phosphorus -like hematite with a reserve of several billion tons. Due to the high phosphorus, aluminum and silicon, the ore dressing is difficult and cannot be used, which seriously hinders the development of the steel industry and develops and utilizes high-phosphorus Hematite will be especially important. For this reason, a dephosphorization test study was carried out on a braided high-phosphorus hematite.

First, the nature of the ore

For the mineral technology study of a braided high-phosphorus hematite, the results of multi-element chemical analysis of ore are shown in Table 1.

Table 1 Results of multi-element chemical analysis of hematite

It can be seen from Table 1 that although the iron grade in the ore is 42.59%, the content of harmful elemental phosphorus is also high, reaching 0.87%.

The iron, phosphorus and other elements in the ore mainly exist as independent minerals, among which the iron mineral composition is more complicated, mainly hematite, followed by limonite, others have a small amount of siderite, magnetite, etc.; It is a collophanite; the gangue minerals are mainly quartz , chlorite and kaolinite, and other gangue minerals also have trace amounts of amorphous carbon, calcite and zircon .

(1) Hematite. It has a close relationship with chlorite, apatite, quartz and limonite. The hematite and chlorite layers form a concentric zone structure. The nucleus is mainly quartz, followed by hematite, limonite, chlorite, and phosphate rock. Sometimes, the above two minerals form the core of the granule in the form of aggregates, chlorite and chlorite. It is often embedded in the concentric annular zone of hematite and chlorite in the form of aggregates. In addition, it can also be seen that the hematite and quartz are closely connected, and are often embedded in concentric annular granules composed of hematite and chlorite.

(2) Phosphate rock mine. It is the most important phosphorus mineral in the ore. It is mainly irregularly embedded in other gangue mineral gaps or in the gaps of the helium-like hematite particles. The colloidal phosphate ore is closely related to the hematite embedding. Sometimes the collophanite is in the form of the core of the hematite hematite. Occasionally, the colloidal phosphate is in the form of an anthracene ring and the hematite interbed is a concentric ring structure. exist. In addition, there are many fine hematite inclusions in the colloidal phosphate particles, and this part of the hematite is also difficult to completely dissociate from the collophosphate monomers.

Second, the beneficiation test

The phosphorus-containing mineral in the braided high-phosphorus hematite is mainly colloidal phosphate rock, and the mine is subjected to reverse flotation dephosphorization-baking-magnetic separation process test.

The phosphorus content in the iron concentrate increased, and the phosphorus content in the concentrate increased from 0.29% to 0.39%.

It can be seen from Figure 2 that the amount of BK-420 collector increased from 375g/t to 625g/t, and the phosphorus content in iron concentrate decreased from 0.33% to 0.23%, but the recovery rate of iron concentrate was also greatly reduced. 73.59% fell to 61.82%. Considering the recovery rate and phosphorus content of iron concentrate, the dosage of BK-420 collector was determined to be 375g/t.

It can be seen from Figure 3 that when the amount of selective collector is 312g/t, the phosphorus content of the concentrate has been reduced to 0.21%, but the iron recovery rate of iron concentrate has dropped too much, considering the iron concentrate recovery rate and iron concentrate. The amount of phosphorus, the selected BK-420 collector is set at 250g / t.
