Abstract
Here, a process for leaching vanadium from calcified roasting pellets (CPVC) of vanadium–titanium-iron concentrate by a two-stage sulfuric acid cycle was proposed. The first stage of leaching was mainly for the removal of silicon from the pellet and leaching solution. After the second stage, the total leaching rates of vanadium and iron were 75.52% and 0.71%, respectively. The concentration of vanadium in the leaching solution reached 6.80 g/L, which can subsequently direct a vanadium precipitation process without extraction and enrichment. After the second roasting, the crushing strength of the pellets reached 2250 N, which met the requirement for blast furnace iron making. The Eh-pH diagrams of the V-Fe-H2O system at different temperatures were plotted. Thermodynamically, it was difficult to selectively leach vanadium and iron by changing the conventional acid leaching conditions. In addition, the pellets before and after leaching were analyzed. The grade of iron in the pellets increased slightly after leaching, and the main phases in the pellets remained as Fe2O3 and Fe9TiO15. The S in the sulfuric acid solution entered the leached pellets during the acid leaching reaction and was removed by the second roasting of the leached pellets.
