Abstract: Provided is a method for preparing high-purity indium (In). The method for preparing the high-purity In includes: distilling refined In to obtain an In vapor-containing gas; and condensing the In vapor-containing gas to obtain the high-purity In; where the distilling is conducted at a temperature of 1,000° C. to 1,100° C. under a vacuum degree of 1.0×10−3 Pa to 5.0×10−2 Pa; and the condensing is conducted at a temperature of 700° C. to 900° C. under a vacuum degree of 1.0×10−3 Pa to 5.0×10−2 Pa. The In vapor-containing gas is obtained by controlling the temperature and vacuum degree of the distilling to evaporate In and impurities with a vapor pressure higher than the In. The temperature and vacuum degree of the condensing are adjusted to condense the In in the In vapor-containing gas.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for removing impurity mercury from crude selenium. The method includes: mixing a vulcanizing agent with a crude selenium slag that is crushed to not more than 200 mesh uniformly, and performing briquetting to obtain a mixed material; adding the mixed material into a sealed furnace, and subjecting the mixed material to vulcanization by heating under an inert atmosphere to obtain a vulcanized selenium; subjecting the vulcanized selenium to primary vacuum distillation, such that selenium is converted into a gas phase and collected in a form of a volatile, and generated mercury sulfide and valuable elements are enriched in a resulting residue; and subjecting the selenium to secondary distillation to further remove mercury.

Abstract: Provided are a vacuum distillation furnace, and a method for preparing high-purity copper particles. In view of the fact that high-purity copper prepared by the traditional method in the current industrial production has an unsatisfactory purity, a high impurity content, and a complicated composition, a vacuum distillation method is adopted. During the vacuum distillation method, most of valuable metals in a copper matrix are volatilized and enter into a gas phase, such that the metals are separated from the copper matrix, thereby allowing the purification of copper; and copper powder particles volatilized to a condensation plate have a smooth surface and a purity of 5 N grade or more.

Abstract: Provided is a recovery method for valuable metals in copper anode slime. By using the recovery method of the disclosure, selenium, copper, tellurium, arsenic, lead, bismuth, and precious metals gold and silver in the copper anode slime are recovered. The method adopts two-step vacuum carbothermal reduction to replace reduction smelting of anode slime and stepwise blowing of noble lead in the traditional pyrometallurgy, and avoids the emission of arsenic-containing soot in the traditional process. The recovered gold-rich residue contains almost no base metals such as lead, bismuth, antimony, and arsenic. After subjecting the gold-rich residue to leaching gold by chlorination and reduction, a gold powder could be obtained therefrom with a lower content of base metals than traditional processes. Therefore, the method greatly reduces the amount of produced slag, shortens the production cycle, and reduces the loss of precious metals in the slag.
