A water cooling treatment was applied in the coal-based reduction of high-chromium vanadium and titanium(V–Ti–Cr) iron ore from the Hongge region of Panzhihua, China. Its effects on the metallization ratio(η), S removal ratio(R_S), and P removal ratio(R_P) were studied and analyzed on the basis of chemical composition determined via inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. The metallic iron particle size and the element distribution of Fe, V, Cr, and Ti in a reduced briquette after water cooling treatment at 1350°C were determined and observed via scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the water cooling treatment improved the η, R_S, and R_P in the coal-based reduction of V–Ti–Cr iron ore compared to those obtained with a furnace cooling treatment. Meanwhile, the particle size of metallic iron obtained via the water cooling treatment was smaller than that of metallic iron obtained via the furnace cooling treatment; however, the particle size reached 70 μm at 1350°C, which is substantially larger than the minimum particle size required(20 μm) for magnetic separation. Therefore, the water cooling treatment described in this work is a good method for improving the quality of metallic iron in coal-based reduction and it could be applied in the coal-based reduction of V–Ti–Cr iron ore followed by magnetic separation.
Calcification roasting–acid leaching of high-chromium vanadium slag(HCVS)was conducted to elucidate the roasting and leaching behaviors of vanadium and chromium.The effects of the purity of Ca O,molar ratio between Ca O and V_2O_5(n(Ca O)/n(V_2O_5)),roasting temperature,holding time,and the heating rate used in the oxidation–calcification processes were investigated.The roasting process and mechanism were analyzed by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and thermogravimetry–differential scanning calorimetry(TG–DSC).The results show that most of vanadium reacted with Ca O to generate calcium vanadates and transferred into the leaching liquid,whereas almost all of the chromium remained in the leaching residue in the form of(Fe_(0.6)Cr_(0.4))_2O_3.Variation trends of the vanadium and chromium leaching ratios were always opposite because of the competitive reactions of oxidation and calcification between vanadium and chromium with Ca O.Moreover,Ca O was more likely to combine with vanadium,as further confirmed by thermodynamic analysis.When the HCVS with Ca O added in an n(Ca O)/n(V_2O_5)ratio of 0.5 was roasted in an air atmosphere at a heating rate of 10°C/min from room temperature to 950°C and maintained at this temperature for 60 min,the leaching ratios of vanadium and chromium reached91.14%and 0.49%,respectively;thus,efficient extraction of vanadium from HCVS was achieved and the leaching residue could be used as a new raw material for the extraction of chromium.Furthermore,the oxidation and calcification reactions of the spinel phases occurred at 592and 630°C for n(Ca O)/n(V_2O_5)ratios of 0.5 and 5,respectively.
研究了红格钒钛磁铁矿（HCVTM）球团等温氧化动力学及其矿物学特征.在不同的温度（10731373 K）和不同的时间（1060 min）范围内,对HCVTM球团矿进行了等温氧化动力学实验.首先分析了球团在不同温度和时间下的微观结构和矿物组成规律.然后根据定义的氧化率,计算和分析了氧化率及其变化规律,以及矿相结构对氧化率的影响.最后结合缩核模型、修正的氧化率函数和阿伦尼乌斯公式,计算了反应速度常数、修正系数和反应活化能,并判断了反应限制性环节.研究表明：随温度的提高,低熔点液相增加,赤铁矿晶粒的生成、长大和再结晶,形成连续的黏结相,空隙数量减少.随时间的增加,生成的液相促进了赤铁矿晶粒间的黏结和长大,但是晶粒间硅酸盐相和钙钛矿类物相恶化了球团结构.同时,钙钛矿和铁板钛矿相生成.HCVTM球团矿空隙数量的减少和黏结相的生成,表现在氧化速率随时间增加而减慢.HCVTM球团氧化反应主要受扩散控制,球团氧化前期的反应活化能为13.74 k J·mol-1,氧化后期的活化能为3.58 k J·mol-1,氧化率函数的修正参数u2=0.03.
