DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0026] A method for co-producing synthetical rutile and polymeric ferric sulfate with waste sulfuric acid, including the following steps:

[0027] S1, performing deep reduction on ilmenite at 850˜1100° C. to obtain reduced ilmenite with a metallization rate of 85% or more, wherein the metallization rate is a percentage of the elemental metallic iron to the total iron in the reduced ilmenite, that is, Fe.sup.0/TFe×100%; if a reduction temperature is too low, it is not favorable for reduction into elemental iron, and the metallization rate is lower, and if the reduction temperature is too high, the side reaction increases, and the production cost is increased;

[0028] S2, leaching the reduced ilmenite with waste sulfuric acid, wherein a leaching temperature is room temperature˜90° C.;

[0029] S3, performing solid-liquid separation on a mixed solution after the leaching in step S2, and drying a solid to obtain synthetical rutile, wherein a filtrate is a ferrous sulfate solution, and in the ferrous sulfate solution, mass fraction concentration of sulfuric acid is 5˜7%, and a ferrous ion content is 9˜10%; and then performing step S4 or S5 to obtain polymeric ferric sulfate; and

[0030] S4, first concentrating the ferrous sulfate solution in step S3, and then oxidizing and polymerizing the resultant to obtain qualified polymeric ferric sulfate;

[0031] S5, first oxidizing and polymerizing the ferrous sulfate solution in step S3 to obtain a polymeric ferric sulfate initial product, and then concentrating the polymeric ferric sulfate initial product to obtain qualified polymeric ferric sulfate.

[0032] In addition to the titanium minerals, the ilmenite further includes a large amount of iron minerals and a small amount of gangue minerals, wherein the iron minerals mainly exist in the form of haematite (Fe.sub.2O.sub.3). In the prior art, the acid leaching method is generally first to reduce Fe.sup.3+ of ilmenite into Fe.sup.2+, then, the acid is added to leach out Fe.sup.2+ at a high temperature of 100° C. or higher to generate ferrous sulfate, and generate H.sub.2. In the present disclosure, the ilmenite is subjected to deep reduction at 850˜1100° C., which may reduce 3-valent iron Fe.sup.3+ into elemental iron Fe.sup.0. Compared with the divalent iron, the elemental iron has higher reaction activity with sulfuric acid, and when the content of elemental iron reaches a certain degree (the metallization rate is 85% or more), the reaction may occur at room temperature, and the iron ions are leached out completely, then, the mixed solution after the leaching is subjected to solid-liquid separation, titanium ions do not react with the sulfuric acid and remain in a solid phase, and synthetical rutile is obtained after drying. The leaching liquid contains a large amount of ferrous sulfate and sulfuric acid, and may be used to produce the polymeric ferric sulfate, so that the ferrous sulfate is utilized to the greatest extent.

[0033] Two manners may be adopted to produce polymeric ferric sulfate with the leaching liquid. One is to first concentrate the leaching liquid to a certain concentration, without the need of additionally adding sulfuric acid and ferrous sulfate or heating, and by preheating after the concentration, oxygen and a catalyst may be directly added, to perform oxidation and polymerization to obtain a qualified polymeric ferric sulfate product. The other is to first directly oxidizing and catalyzing the leaching liquid, to obtain dilute polymeric ferric sulfate, and then to concentrate the dilute polymeric ferric sulfate to obtain a qualified polymeric ferric sulfate finished product. Neither of these two manners of producing polymeric ferric sulfate requires addition of new ferrous sulfate and sulfuric acid, or requires heating. The heat used for concentration may come from residual heat of exhaust gas generated during the deep reduction in step S1.

[0034] However, by adopting the method in which concentration is carried out first, and then oxidation and polymerization are carried out, although preheating by concentration is possible, and the oxidation and polymerization are directly performed without the need of heating, the ferrous sulfate solution has a higher iron content after the concentration, then during transportation through pipeline, the pipeline is easily clogged, which affects the production, while first oxidation and polymerization of ferrous sulfate, and then concentration may avoid the problem of clogging of pipeline or valve caused by high-concentration ferrous sulfate solution crystallization. Therefore, it is preferable to adopt the method in which oxidation and polymerization is followed by concentration.

[0035] The synthetical rutile product obtained by this method has a titanium content close to 90%, a suitable particle size, with less pulverization, and 90% or more of 60˜160 meshes, and may be taken as a feed stock for production of titanium white pigment by the chlorination process. The resultant qualified polymeric ferric sulfate finished product has a total iron content of greater than 12%, a reducing substance (calculated based on Fe.sup.2+) content far less than 0.10%, and basicity greater than 12%, all of which are higher than requirements of national standards of the product.

[0036] Therefore, the present disclosure first reduces Fe.sup.3+ in the ilmenite into elemental iron by means of deep reduction, which improves the subsequent acid leaching reaction activity, decreases the acid leaching reaction temperature, and improves the product quality of synthetical rutile. Moreover, by co-producing the synthetical rutile and the polymeric ferric sulfate with the waste sulfuric acid, the process is simple, the flow is short, and the hydrogen generated by a process system may be recycled for the reduction of ilmenite, meanwhile, hydrogen is a clean energy source, no secondary contamination will be produced in the reduction process, the residual heat generated in the reduction process may be used for concentration of the leached filtrate or concentration of the dilute polymeric ferric sulfate produced in the system. After the concentration, sulfuric acid and ferrous sulfate heptahydrate do not need to be additionally added to the filtrate, nor is heating needed, while the polymeric ferric sulfate may be directly produced, then the waste by-products in each process step are utilized to the maximum extent, and meanwhile, cost consumption is saved.

[0037] The present disclosure provides a brand-new recycling mode for titanium white waste acid, and maximizes the use of waste sulfuric acid produced by the production of titanium white by the sulfuric acid process, to exert the unique properties thereof and unique ingredient characteristics of the reduced ilmenite, and convert the reactant into synthetical rutile and polymeric ferric sulfate with a high added value, which effectively avoids the secondary pollution caused by accumulation of solid substances brought about by the conventional waste acid treatment or the high treatment cost of the waste acid concentration process, realizes diversified utilization, comprehensive utilization, and recycling of waste, has very good economic benefit, and changes the conventional coarse type treatment mode of waste.

[0038] Since the synthetical rutile product has requirement to a calcium magnesium content, preferably, the ilmenite in step S1 has a titanium content of 40% or more calculated based on TiO.sub.2, a calcium content less than 0.1% calculated based on CaO, and a calcium magnesium content not higher than 1.5% calculated based on CaO+MgO, thus avoiding a too high calcium magnesium content in the feed stock from affecting the calcium magnesium content in the finished product.

[0039] The reducing agent in step S1 may adopt a solid reducing agent such as coal and petroleum coke, or a gas reducing agent such as CO and H.sub.2, and preferably, the reducing agent in step S1 is H.sub.2 produced by the leaching in step S2, thus realizing recycling of substances and clean production. Theoretically, the extension of reduction period is beneficial to the increase of the metallization rate, but the corresponding production cost is increased, and the side reaction also increases, therefore, the reduction period is preferably 0.5˜4 h. H.sub.2 is used in an amount by controlling the content of H.sub.2 in the reaction exhaust gas to be 3% or more.

[0040] Preferably, the mass fraction concentration of the waste sulfuric acid is 18˜22%, and in this concentration range, it is beneficial to leaching of Fe.

[0041] The waste sulfuric acid may use the waste sulfuric acid produced during the production of titanium white pigment by the sulfuric acid process or other production waste acid. Certainly, unused sulfuric acid may also be adopted.

[0042] Preferably, amounts of the reduced ilmenite and the waste sulfuric acid in step S2 are determined according to contents of sulfuric acid and ferrous ions in the filtrate after the reaction. It is required that in the filtrate, the mass fraction concentration of sulfuric acid is 5˜7%, and the ferrous ion content is 9˜10%, so that the contents of sulfuric acid and ferrous ions in the filtrate maintain a certain proportion, which facilitates subsequent oxidization and polymerization. By measuring the elemental Fe content and the waste sulfuric acid concentration in the reduced ilmenite, a reaction ratio of the two is calculated.

[0043] Preferably, the leaching period in step S2 is 0.5˜3 h, and within this time range, the Fe can be made to react completely as much as possible without wasting time.

[0044] Preferably, in step S4, the ferrous sulfate is concentrated first, and in the filtrate after concentration, the mass fraction concentration of sulfuric acid is 8˜9%, the ferrous ion content is 11˜13%, and the temperature is 50˜65° C. The filtrate satisfying this condition after the concentration may be directly added with oxygen and a catalyst for reaction.

[0045] Preferably, the oxidation and polymerization conditions in step S4 and step S5 are as follows: introducing oxygen into the ferrous sulfate solution, wherein an addition amount of oxygen is 0.05˜0.15% per ton of the polymeric ferric sulfate, and adding a catalyst, wherein the catalyst is sodium nitrite, and an addition amount thereof is 0.1˜0.3% per ton of the polymeric ferric sulfate, an initial reaction temperature is 50˜65° C., and a reaction period is 3˜5 h. The reaction is an exothermic reaction, and the temperature after the reaction is ended is 90˜105° C. Under this condition, the reaction is stable, and the utilization rate of ferrous sulfate is high, the polymeric ferric sulfate product produced has excellent quality, and fewer differences between batches.
