Embodiment
It should be noted that, in the situation that do not conflict, embodiment and the feature in embodiment in the application can combine mutually.Describe below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments the present invention in detail.
In the present invention indication to mix Cerium aluminate lutetium scintillation crystal waste material be to obtain the scintillation crystal of using from nuclear medicine, general salic 20~40%, oxidation-containing cerium 0.5~1%, remaining lutecium oxide is 60~80%.
A kind of method that reclaims lutecium oxide from the scintillation crystal waste material of mixing the Cerium aluminate lutetium of a kind of exemplary embodiment according to the present invention as shown in Figure 1, comprises the following steps: S1, in the scintillation crystal waste material, add alkaline matter, roasting, obtain calcining matter; S2, calcining matter is carried out to water logging, filter, and add nitric acid and oxygenant in the filter residue obtained, stir, obtain mixed solution; S3, will in mixed solution, join in organic extractant, extraction, obtain containing the extract of cerium with containing the raffinate of lutetium; S4, to containing adding oxalic acid in the raffinate of lutetium, stir, filter, the throw out calcination by obtaining, obtain lutecium oxide.
By to mixing in Cerium aluminate lutetium scintillation crystal waste material, adding sodium hydroxide and/or potassium hydroxide at high temperature roasting, by the solid matter obtained dissolved, thereby filtering separation removed impurity aluminum, filter residue is dissolved and reoxidizes cerium rear and that the extracting cerium ion remaval adulterates under acidic conditions, by calcination after the precipitation of the raffinate containing lutetium obtained, obtained the high-purity mangesium oxide lutetium.Technique provided by the present invention has the advantages such as flow process is short, facility investment is few, simple easy handling, obtained purity up to 99% and the rate of recovery up to 99.5% high-purity mangesium oxide lutetium.Due to the price comparison costliness of Lutetium, the present invention provides a kind of new approach for reclaiming lutetium the scintillation crystal waste material from mixing the Cerium aluminate lutetium, has saved resource, has reduced pollution, has huge practical value.
For the metallic aluminium by waste material is fully separated from the scintillation crystal waste material of mixing the Cerium aluminate lutetium, the application is chosen in step S1 and adds sodium hydroxide and/or potassium hydroxide, 320 ℃~700 ℃ lower roastings 0.5~2 hour, now sodium hydroxide and/or potassium hydroxide and mix Cerium aluminate lutetium generation chemical reaction, generate sodium aluminate and/or potassium aluminate, cerous hydroxide, hydroxide lutetium, by using the water extraction calcining matter, sodium aluminate and/or potassium aluminate are soluble in water, and cerous hydroxide and hydroxide lutetium are water insoluble, through filtering, just impurity aluminum can be separated.
In the sodium hydroxide wherein added in step S1 and/or the amount of potassium hydroxide and scintillation crystal waste material, the mol ratio of contained oxide aggregate is 6:1~10:1.If both mol ratios are less than 6:1, can cause the aluminium in the scintillation crystal waste material can not be converted into sodium aluminate and/or potassium aluminate fully, make cerium contained in the scintillation crystal waste material and lutetium can not be converted into cerous hydroxide, hydroxide lutetium fully, so still have some scintillation crystal waste materials and do not react and left behind, make the purity of the lutecium oxide obtained and the rate of recovery decrease; If both mol ratios are greater than 10:1, base excess can cause solution basicity and the viscosity after the calcining matter water logging excessive, affects to filtration fully separating impurity aluminium, thereby affect the purity of lutecium oxide product, in addition, also can increase raw materials cost, also can cause the erosion of equipment simultaneously.
In the water logging process, preferably adopt hot water to carry out water logging.Consider that the fusing point of potassium hydroxide is higher than sodium hydroxide, and the cost ratio sodium hydroxide of potassium hydroxide is high, so preferably adopting low melting point to reach sodium hydroxide cheaply, the present invention carries out roasting with the scintillation crystal waste material of mixing the Cerium aluminate lutetium, make like this separation of impurity aluminum complete, the purity of the final product lutecium oxide obtained and yield is higher and cost is lower.Wherein being chosen in 320 ℃~700 ℃ lower roastings 0.5~2 hour is mainly to consider that the fusing point of sodium hydroxide is 318.4 ℃, if maturing temperature is lower than 320 ℃, can exist sodium hydroxide to melt incomplete problem, thereby cause sodium hydroxide can't fully react with the scintillation crystal waste material, aluminium in the scintillation crystal waste material can not generate sodium aluminate fully, the degree of separating impurity aluminium is thorough not like this, does not reach the purpose of abundant separation; If maturing temperature higher than 700 ℃, can make the sodium aluminate generated resolve into aluminum oxide, thereby also can't reach the purpose of abundant separating impurity aluminium.
Add nitric acid and oxygenant after filtering in the filter cake obtained, a preferred embodiment of the invention, oxygenant is potassium bromate or potassium permanganate.The purpose that adds nitric acid in this step is filter cake to be dissolved as to the solution of nitric acid system, and the purpose that adds oxygenant is for the Ce by contained in filter cake 3+exhaustive oxidation becomes Ce 4+, this is that extraction agent only extracts quadrivalent cerium as the TBP extraction agent, and does not extract the trivalent lutetium because under high acid environment, thereby reaches the purpose that the cerium lutetium separates.In order to guarantee the Ce in filter cake 3+exhaustive oxidation becomes Ce 4+, the oxygenant needs that add are excessive a little, and according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, oxygenant is potassium bromate or potassium permanganate; Wherein in oxygenant and scintillation crystal waste material, the mol ratio of contained cerium is 5:1~1:1.If in oxygenant and scintillation crystal waste material, the mol ratio of contained cerium is greater than 5:1, make in mixed solution the oxygenant solute concentration increase and occur that viscosity of mixed liquid is excessive, cause phase-splitting bad and affect the degree of cerium impurity separation; Reduce purity and the yield of the lutecium oxide finally obtained; If in oxygenant and scintillation crystal waste material, the mol ratio of contained cerium is less than 1:1, the trivalent cerium in mixed solution can not be oxidized to quadrivalent cerium fully, makes cerium impurity separate not thorough, can reduce equally the purity of product lutecium oxide.
Obtained mixed solution after adding nitric acid and oxygenant, a preferred embodiment of the invention, carrying out also comprising before organic extraction to mixed solution: add concentrated nitric acid in mixed solution, the step that the acidity of adjusting mixed solution is 5~10N.It is to improve the acidity of mixed solution that the acidity of mixed solution is adjusted into to the purpose that 5~10N extracted, and contributes to the extracting and separating of cerium and lutetium; If the acidity of mixed solution lower than 5N, there will be a large amount of lutetiums to be extracted in organic phase, reduce the yield of product lutetium; If the acidity of mixed solution, higher than 10N, there will be the phenomenon that viscosity of mixed liquid is excessive, acid mist is serious, cause phase-splitting bad and affect cerium impurity and separate not exclusively, also can cause work under bad environment and then unhealthful.Therefore the acidity that the present invention preferably carries out before organic extraction adjusting mixed solution to mixed solution is 5~10N, has guaranteed carrying out smoothly of follow-up organic extraction step, can make extraction more fully and completely.
Preferably, organic extractant is selected from one or more mixed solutions in the mixed solution of the mixed solution of mixed solution, di (isooctyl) phosphate and kerosene of mixed solution, tbp and kerosene of tributyl phosphate and whiteruss and isooctyl phosphoric acid di-isooctyl and kerosene.The present invention preferably but be not limited to above-mentioned organic extraction solvent, adopts above-mentioned organic extractant to have that phase-splitting is fast, the easy advantage of back extraction.Wherein adding the oil phase in mixed solution after organic extractant is 5:1~1:1 than O:A.When mixed solution that organic extractant is tbp (TBP) and whiteruss, per-cent meter by volume, TBP accounts for 10%~60% of described mixed solution, and whiteruss accounts for 40%~90% of mixed solution.By mixed solution is carried out to organic extraction, can be so that the Ce in mixed solution 4+enter into organic extractant, lutetium ion is retained in raffinate, so just will mix the cerium adulterated in Cerium aluminate lutetium scintillation crystal waste material and thoroughly remove.
In order to make the organic extractant can recycle, according to a kind of exemplary embodiment of the present invention, also comprise the process that the extract to obtaining in step S3 is stripped, comprise: add the ascorbic acid solution that mass percent concentration is 0.1~0.5% in extract, stir back extraction 0.5~1 hour; And add the salpeter solution that acidity is 3~8N, agitator treating in the organic extractant after back extraction.The ascorbic acid solution added can be reduced into trivalent cerium by the quadrivalent cerium in extraction agent, thereby plays ceric purpose in the back extraction extraction agent.The xitix that this place adopts is a kind of water-soluble vitamin c, and molecular formula is C 6h 8o 6, due to ascorbic acid solution, easily by light and atmospheric oxidation, need now with the current.Wherein adopting the organic extractant after salpeter solution that acidity is 3~8N washing back extraction is in order to wash away xitix residual in organic extractant, guarantees not affect when organic extractant recycles the percentage extraction of cerium.
In order to obtain highly purified lutecium oxide, need to be to adding in raffinate oxalic acid to make that lutetium element in raffinate is precipitated to get off.The add-on of oxalic acid, also can be excessive according to the lutetium element in raffinate being precipitated as to benchmark fully.A preferred embodiment of the invention also comprised before adding the oxalic acid step in raffinate: by raffinate evaporated, concentrated, and adjust the step of the pH value to 1.5 of the concentrated solution obtained~2.Due to by Ce 3+be oxidized to Ce 4+process in added more concentrated nitric acid, the part concentrated nitric acid remains in raffinate, the stronger acidity that makes raffinate present is unfavorable for lutetium ion precipitation.By adding deionized water to adjust the pH value to 1.5 of concentrated solution~2, by weakening the acidic conditions of raffinate, be conducive to lutetium ion and precipitate, thereby guaranteed purity and the yield of the lutecium oxide product that finally obtains.By the throw out of the oxalic acid lutetium that obtains after filtering through 800 ℃~950 ℃ calcinations after 2~4 hours lutecium oxide.
According to a further aspect in the invention, provide a kind of lutecium oxide obtained that reclaims from the scintillation crystal waste material of mixing the Cerium aluminate lutetium, wherein above-mentioned any method of lutecium oxide employing reclaims and obtains.Adopt the purity of the lutecium oxide product that aforesaid method provided by the present invention prepares to be greater than 99.5%.
