As an important part of the basic industry, the mining and metallurgical industry covers multiple process links from ore mining to metal extraction. In this extensive production process, the transportation of various corrosive media is involved, which requires pumps to have special corrosion resistance and design. The following are the processes that may involve the transportation of corrosive media in the mining and metallurgical production process, as well as the corresponding pump requirements.
1.Ore processing
Process:Ore crushing, grinding, leaching and other processes involving corrosive media such as acidic leaching solutions.
Pump requirements:For the transportation of acidic leachate, a centrifugal pump or diaphragm pump made of acid-resistant material is required to ensure stable transportation and prevent leakage.
2.Flotation separation
Process:Separation of useful minerals from waste rock by flotation separation, which may involve corrosive media such as acid reagents.
Pump requirements:In the flotation process of handling acidic reagents, it is necessary to select pumps made of corrosion-resistant materials to ensure durability and stability.
3.Smelting and extraction
Process:Smelting ores containing metal minerals may involve acidic solutions and high temperatures and pressures.
Pump requirements:In high temperature, high pressure and acidic environments, the pump material needs to be corrosion resistant and high temperature stable. At the same time, the pump's sealing is also very important.
4.Tailings treatment
Process:Treatment of waste and tailings generated during the smelting process, which may contain acidic waste liquids.
Pump requirements:When handling tailings containing acidic waste liquids, it is necessary to select pumps that can resist corrosion while taking into account the solid particles in the waste liquid.
5.Cooling cycle
Process:During the smelting process, a cooling cycle is required, which may use corrosive cooling media.
Pump requirements:For corrosive cooling media, the pump material needs to be corrosion-resistant and able to operate stably for a long time in the cooling cycle.
