< nanofiltration separation step >
Performing membrane separation on the mixed rare earth alkaline wastewater containing fluoride ions and phosphate ions by using a nanofiltration membrane, wherein the operation temperature is 10-35 ℃, and the operation pressure is 1.0-3.5 MPa, so as to obtain permeate liquid enriched with fluoride ions and hydroxide ions and retentate enriched with phosphate ions; the mixed rare earth alkaline wastewater is alkaline wastewater containing sodium hydroxide, which is obtained by subjecting mixed rare earth concentrate to an alkaline decomposition process; in the mixed rare earth alkaline wastewater, the concentration of hydroxide ions is 0.001-1.2 mol/L, the concentration of fluoride ions is 0.001-1.6 g/L by weight of fluorine, and the concentration of phosphate ions is 0.001-1.65 g/L by weight of phosphorus. Therefore, fluoride ions and phosphate ions with lower concentration in the mixed rare earth alkaline wastewater of different types can be better separated, and the separation selectivity is high, namely, higher fluoride ion transmittance and phosphate ion retention rate are realized; so as to realize comprehensive recycling of resources and achieve zero discharge of wastewater. In the prior art, only alkaline wastewater (namely primary water washing liquid) containing higher-concentration hydroxide ions, fluoride ions and phosphate ions is generally treated by concentration or evaporative crystallization to obtain sodium fluoride and sodium phosphate through separation; and for the tertiary water washing liquid, the quaternary water washing liquid and the like which contain lower-concentration fluoride ions and phosphate ions, sodium fluoride and sodium phosphate cannot be separated.
The nanofiltration membrane is adopted for membrane separation in the invention, which means that the membrane separation is carried out by a nanofiltration membrane filtering device.
In the mixed rare earth alkaline wastewater of the invention, hydroxyl ions (OH)-) The concentration of (B) may be 0.001 to 1.2mol/L, preferably 0.01 to 1.2mol/L, and more preferably 0.05 to 1.0 mol/L. The concentration of fluoride ion may be 0.001 to 1.6g/L, preferably 0.01 to 1.6g/L, and more preferably 0.05 to 1.5g/L, based on the weight of fluorine. The concentration of phosphate ions based on the weight of phosphorus can be 0.001-1.65 g/L, preferably 0.01-1.55 g/L, and more preferably 0.05-1.55 g/L. According to one embodiment of the invention, in the mixed rare earth alkaline wastewater, the concentration of hydroxide ions is 0.05-1.5 mol/L, the concentration of fluoride ions is 0.01-1.6 g/L by weight of fluorine, and the concentration of phosphate ions is 0.01-1.55 g/L by weight of phosphorus.

The operating pressure may be 1.0 to 3.5MPa, preferably 1.0 to 3.0MPa, and more preferably 1.5 to 3.0 MPa. According to one embodiment of the invention, the operation temperature of the membrane separation process is 15-35 ℃, and the operation pressure is 1.0-3.5 MPa.

After membrane separation, permeate and retentate are obtained. The permeation solution is enriched with fluorine ions and hydroxyl ions; the trapped liquid is rich in phosphate ions. Thus, the separation of the fluoride ions and the phosphate ions is realized, and the separation selectivity is high. By adopting the operating conditions of the invention, the permeability to fluorine ions is more than or equal to 93 percent, and the retention rate to phosphate ions is more than or equal to 92 percent. Permeability (F) of fluorine ion-Permeability) and rejection rate of phosphate ions (PO)4 3-Rejection) is as follows:
the permeability of fluoride ion (weight of fluorine in the permeated liquid/weight of fluorine in the basic wastewater as a raw liquid) x 100%.
The retention rate of phosphate ions (weight of phosphorus in the retention solution/weight of phosphorus in the raw solution alkaline wastewater) x 100%.
The higher the permeability of the fluorine ions is, the higher the rejection rate of the phosphate ions is, which indicates that the separation selectivity of the nanofiltration membrane on the fluorine ions and the phosphate ions is higher.
According to the needs, the method can also carry out membrane separation on the trapped fluid enriched with phosphate ions or the permeate enriched with fluoride ions again by adopting a nanofiltration membrane. For example, the retentate enriched in phosphate ions is subjected to membrane separation again by using a nanofiltration membrane, so that a secondary retentate with a higher phosphate ion concentration can be obtained. And (3) carrying out membrane separation on the permeation liquid enriched with the fluorine ions again by adopting a nanofiltration membrane to obtain secondary permeation liquid with higher fluorine ion concentration.
