Description of the techniques
Description 1: in the first step of chlorination, the specific temperature of the patent is 100 ℃ for heating to remove the moisture of reactants, and if the requirement is not met, various byproducts are generated, so that the final low-purity metal uranium is obtained; heating at a specific temperature of 250 ℃ is to remove bound water in reactants, the effect can be achieved only at the specific temperature, uranium hydroxide and high-valence uranium oxide can be generated when the temperature is too high, the electrolysis time is increased, chlorination is carried out at the specific temperature of 400-460 ℃, and an intermediate product uranium tetrachloride with the purity of 99.3% can be obtained only at the specific temperature.
Description 2: in the second step alone, the conventional idea is to directly give electrons to uranium ions in high-temperature molten salt by using an electrochemical method, so that the uranium ions are directly electrochemically reduced into metallic uranium simple substances. The new idea of the patent in the second step is to solve the loss caused by high temperature and the inefficiency of single electrolyte effect under the specific current value, namely 0.1A, and gradually reduce metal when electrons are introduced, so that the obtained product is more uniform and the time is shorter.
Description 3: this patent is loaded with the triuranium octoxide of specific quality in porcelain boat and is carried out the chlorination, because porcelain boat bears too much reactant, is unfavorable for carrying out the reaction with carbon tetrachloride gas, and too thick reactant can lead to the productivity of upper and lower floor's product to cause differently.
Description 4: the patent must specifically introduce inert gas, such as high-purity nitrogen, for 30-300min at a flow rate of 3cm 3 The method is characterized in that the method is used in chloridizing-electrolyzing-refining, because the reaction concentration of carbon tetrachloride is determined by controlling the flow rate of nitrogen, however, the carbon tetrachloride gas is cooled when contacting with high-purity inert gas, so that condensation reflux is caused, the experiment adopts a three-neck flask, and the left end is filled with high-purity nitrogenHeating the mixture in a container, and then mixing the other end of the mixture with carbon tetrachloride which becomes gas and then introducing the mixture into a reaction container; when in electrolysis, the flow rate of inert gas is controlled within a certain range, too much can reduce the temperature in the electrolytic tank, and too little can not ensure the removal of impurity gas and the maintenance of inert atmosphere.
Description 5: this specific tail gas of this patent is collected and detects liquid and is concentrated sulfuric acid, if adopt inorganic aqueous solution, vapor can get into quartz tube and reactant and take place side reaction, so get rid of, if adopt the organic matter, volatility is stronger, can take place side reaction equally or decompose under the high temperature and cause the influence, so concentrated sulfuric acid is adopted here, because it has hydroscopicity and oily difficult volatilizing, whether have the strong reducibility also can detect through the change of colour and have the passage of carbon tetrachloride gas, still have as gas velocity of flow detection and tail gas collection device's basic function.
Description 6: this patent is specific to adopt liquid gallium as the negative pole to carry out the electrolysis, and the effect is increase area of contact when the electrolysis, prevents the influence of external atmosphere in to the fused salt, can be accelerated to obtain the alloy, and the alloy can obtain simple substance metal fast through the high temperature refining that follows.
Description 7: u is specifically adopted in this patent 3 O 8 As a raw material, free metallic uranium is not present in nature because of its very active chemical nature, and is always present in a combined state. Uranium minerals 170 are known in more than one but only 20-30 of them of industrial exploitation value, the most important of which are asphaltic uranium minerals (mainly composed of triuranium octoxide). The method has the advantages that the source of raw materials is wide, the preparation process is simple and direct, meanwhile, the uranium oxide is the most stable, uranium trioxide can not be gradually oxidized to generate under the chlorination condition, wherein the oxidation condition of the uranium trioxide is 200-500 ℃, namely the chlorination temperature in the process, and the bad influence can be overcome in the method.
Description 8: UCl is specifically adopted in the patent 4 As an electrolyte in the intermediate process, uranium chloride (UCl) 4 /UCl 3 ) Is weaker and is easy to form U in molten salt 4+ And Cl - Is easier to be reduced in the electrolytic process, eliminates UCl 3 Unstable in air, thus UCl 4 Are more suitable as electrolytic substances in this patent. For converting triuranium octoxide into uranium tetrachloride, chloride ions must be present in the reactant, and according to other experimental results, pure chlorine gas can be used to obtain uranium tetrachloride, however, the yield is reduced, and considering that oxygen ions exist in triuranium octoxide, nonmetallic elements such as H, C, S, P, N are required to be found to combine with oxygen ions to generate gas, and then discharged, wherein water formed by H and O oxidizes low-valent uranium, S, N and P generate flammable and highly toxic gas with H, and if a hydrochlorination agent is adopted, nitric acid and sulfuric acid can be generated to dissolve reactant triuranium octoxide, so that the reactant is reduced; in other studies, many have been chlorinated with metal chlorides, however, metal impurities are introduced, and if carbon tetrachloride reactants containing only C and Cl are used as in this patent, high yields are most desirable.
Description 9: the patent adopts inert nitrogen gas of specific velocity to mix into carbon tetrachloride gas, only reduces the loss of the product and improves the yield after carbon tetrachloride gas contacts with high-purity nitrogen. The reasons for the loss are from the instrument and the method, the instrument is special in structure, and the chlorine source is supplemented in a dropwise adding mode, so that the local chlorine concentration in the internal contact reaction space is overlarge, high-price and volatile substances such as uranium pentachloride and the like are generated, and the substances are solidified on the tube wall, so that the loss is caused. The reason for the volatile substances is that the concentration of chloride ions is too great or that a reaction for producing chlorine gas occurs. However, they encounter new problems with this mixture, causing further losses, since it is mixed with 8% -26% chloroform added dropwise in carbon tetrachloride, which reacts with uranium oxychloride, oxidizing the lower uranium to higher uranium, which has a great impact on the yield of the chlorination process.
Description 10: the specific carbon tetrachloride is adopted as the chlorinating agent, the yield is higher than that of the chloroform-carbon tetrachloride mixed gas adopted in other articles due to the adoption of single carbon tetrachloride gas, the adopted chloroform can reduce the byproduct chlorine, so that the generation of volatile byproducts is indirectly reduced, however, the chloroform in the carbon tetrachloride and chloroform mixed liquid adopted in other technologies is sensitive to light and is easy to decompose, other impurities are generated, and can be uniformly mixed, the boiling point of the chloroform is 61-62 ℃, the chloroform can be changed into gas earlier in the process of dropping liquid at high temperature, the reaction can be carried out with reactant octauranium oxide in advance, the combination of hydrogen and oxygen is caused, the inhibition of the reaction by the generation of side reaction product water is not eliminated, the stability of the chloroform is poor, and if the chlorination temperature is higher than 450 ℃, the thermal decomposition can be carried out to form carbon tetrachloride, and the reaction is a side reaction for the chlorination reaction. Not only can the toxicity of chloroform be strong, but also the chloroform can be decomposed into extremely toxic gas, and the chloroform can cause great harm to human bodies. Therefore, the yield of the method adopts carbon tetrachloride as a reactant to chlorinate the triuranium octoxide, and can exceed the yield of the mixed gas of carbon tetrachloride and chloroform adopted in other articles. In the carbon tetrachloride introducing process, high-purity nitrogen is introduced at the same time, so that the concentration of introduced carbon tetrachloride gas is diluted, and chloride ions with low concentration can fully react with reactants, thereby avoiding uranium pentachloride or having little influence on the patent.
The beneficial effects are that:
1. specifically, carbon tetrachloride with fixed concentration is used as a chlorinating agent, the ionic bond energy of uranium oxide is weakened, metal is precipitated more rapidly during constant current electrolysis, the metal uranium electrolysis precipitation time is greatly reduced, and compared with other technologies, metal uranium can be electrolyzed out after more than 40 hours, the metal uranium can be obtained after 17.5 hours, the U-Ga alloy can be obtained after 1 hour, and then other means are used for separation, refining and purification.
2 specifically adopts the rectification reflux method to purify the carbon tetrachloride, and the gas flow speed and the temperature time during chlorination are jointly determined to obtain the UCl with higher purity of 99.3 percent 4 The powder reduces the introduction of impurities and improves the purity of the finally electrolyzed metallic uranium.
