Abstract

The invention discloses a process for precipitating rare earth continuously. The process for precipitating the rare earth continuously is characterized by comprising the following steps of: continuously filling material liquid and oxalic acid solution precipitator into a reactor in a co-current way; introducing a product generated in the reactor into one of two buffer tanks first, and when the buffer tank is full, introducing the product generated in the reactor into the other buffer tank and absorbing water in the former buffer tank; alternately using the two buffer tanks till the amount of a solid product in one buffer tank is enough, cleaning the buffer tank and drying the buffer tank by pumping to obtain the solid product finally when the other buffer tank continuously receives the product output from the reactor, and thus, realizing the continuous production. In the whole reaction process, the concentration, acidity and temperature of the rare earth at different time stages are basically unchanged, so oxalic acid rare earth with uniform D50 and the ignition rare earth oxide of the oxalic acid rare earth can be obtained. The whole production is a continuous, dynamic and energy-saving flow line process and the production efficiency is high.

Description

Process for precipitating rare earth continuously
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of depositing technology of rare earth, belong to hydrometallurgy (hydrometallurgy) technical field.
Background technology
At present traditional rare earth traditional rare earth depositing technology adopts homogeneous phase intermittent type intermediate processing, the degree of supersaturation through control oxalic acid water, the concentration of feed liquid and acidity, and the conditions such as temperature of reaction produce and conform with the rare earth compound that rerum natura requires.But because its production process is in periodical operation, need to begin to heat up in reaction, the reaction end needs cooling, saves the energy inadequately, and takies the PT, and production efficiency is very low.And material moment reaction density and acidity change in the reactor drum are very big, cause size-grade distribution undesirable.Because relative concentration is along with the carrying out of precipitin reaction in the reactor drum, its concentration is more and more lower, and acidity is increasingly high.At the precipitation from homogeneous solution(PFHS) initial stage, because relative concentration is higher, it's the end is past relative acidity, nucleus formation speed is too fast during reaction, and nucleus growth speed is slow excessively, is prone to form too much fine particle this moment and also is prone to form aggregated particle; And precipitation from homogeneous solution(PFHS) latter stage, relative acidity is too high because relative concentration is lower, and nucleus is prone to growth, and it is sub to form too much macrobead.From the deposition angle, traditional rare-earth precipitation has very big defective.
