Abstract

To recover vanadium from vanadium-bearing titaniferous magnetite (VTM) ore, the conditions of the soda ash (Na₂CO₃) the roasting and water leaching were investigated. The VTM ore contained magnetite and ilmenite as the major minerals, from which a concentrate produced from magnetic separation was used as feed material. The vanadium content in the concentrate was approximately 0.8% as V₂O₅. The experimental factors considered for the process optimization included the amount of Na₂CO₃ added, and roasting temperature/time for the salt roasting process, and the particle size (D₅₀) of the roasted material, and the leaching temperature/time for the water leaching process. The results show that the maximum vanadium leaching efficiency of 85.2% was achieved at the following optimal conditions: salt roasting at 20 wt% of Na₂CO₃, 1,000°C and 3 hr, and the water leaching at D₅₀ of 2.1 µm and 80°C for 1 hr.

함바나듐 티탄철광으로부터 바나듐 회수를 위한 소다회 (Na₂CO₃) 염배소-수침출 조건 확립에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 주요 광물로 자철석 및 티탄철석을 함유하고 있는 광석의 자력선별 정광을 연구에 사용하였으며, 정광 중 바나듐 함량은 V₂O₅로써 약 0.8%로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서 고려한 염배소 및 수침출 영향인자는 Na₂CO₃ 첨가량, 염배소 온도 및 시간 (이상 염배소 인자), 염배소 산물의 D₅₀ 입도, 수침출 온도 및 시간 (이상 수침출 인자) 등이다. 연구 결과, 정광을 20 wt% Na₂CO₃, 1,000°C, 3시간 조건에서 염배소한 후 D₅₀ 2.1 µm, 80°C, 1시간 조건하에서 수침출하였을 때, 바나듐의 최대 침출율 85.2%가 달성되었다.
