3Be colloid, granularity is little, the clarification filtration difficulty.For this reason, disclose a kind of ammoniacal liquor and hydrofluoric acid of adopting among the Chinese patent CN1337357A and be mixed with compound fluorinating, react the method that generates oarse-grained rare earth fluorine with rare earth salts again, produced ammonia nitrogen waste water in this method preparation process.
Chinese patent CN1017985B discloses a kind of method, adopting rare earth solubility salt, oxide compound, oxalate, sulfuric acid rare earth double salt, subcarbonate is slurries, add oxalic acid, add hydrofluoric acid again, carry out solid-liquid separation, prepare and be easy to the filtering rare earth fluorine of sedimentation, the used oxalic acid of this method costs an arm and a leg, the preparation cost height, and the final fluoride ion oxalic acid corrosion that produces is strong, equipment anticorrosion is required high.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide and a kind ofly prepare the rare earth fluorine method with rare earth oxide, this method technical process is simple, filtration washing easily, and manipulation strength is low, production capacity is big, and the fluoride waste quantity discharged is few, handles easily, and synthesis device is simple, requirement for anticorrosion is low, less investment, and cost is low.
The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
At first with rare earth oxide and water direct reaction, generate rare-earth hydroxide, again with the hydrofluoric acid direct reaction, after filtration, washing and oven dry generate rare earth fluorine.Its reaction is as follows:
