Description

High purity yttrium obtained by solvent extraction
The invention belongs to hydrometallurgy Rare Earth Separation technology, the technology of solvent extraction and separation yttrium
Nature yttrium (ordination number 39) and
Figure 85102220_IMG1
Series elements (ordination number 57-71) symbiosis, their chemical property is very similar, causes mutual separation difficulty.High-purity yttrium oxide increases day by day in the demand of aspects such as fluorescent luminescent material, laserable material.Current, the hydrometallurgical processes of purification yttrium is mainly used liquid-liquid extraction, and used extraction system is had nothing in common with each other.Japan (Japan special permission 74-54216) is enriched in water (the yttrium grade is increased to 93.1% from 62%) with naphthenic acid with yttrium, and the organic phase middle-weight rare earths contains yttrium 1.5%, extracts pure yttrium with di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid from rich yttrium aqueous phase afterwards.In addition, Japan (Japan special permission 79-80222) is extraction agent with di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid, from the mixed rare earth chlorides of the thick yttrium that contains La-Lu behind the extraction branch group rare-earth, and back extraction organic phase middle-weight rare earths.Add DTPA in the strip liquor, with naphthenic acid purification by liquid extraction yttrium, obtain purity>99% of yttrium, yield 58%, Beijing Non-Ferrous Metal Research General Academy's report " is produced phosphor powder class yttrium oxide technical study with siron south, extraction process Congjiang mishmetal " and " with the technology of separating high-purity yttrium in the mishmetal of siron south, the naphthenic acid extraction process Congjiang ", this process using 20% naphthenic acid (~90% ammonification)-15% isooctyl alcohol-kerosene organic phase, from the 0.8M re chloride through 55 grades of extractions, yttrium from 63.9% purify to>99.99%, the rate of recovery 95.47% of yttrium, carry that yttrium content is 7-8% in the low yttrium rare earth behind the yttrium, contain the concentration C y of yttrium in the outlet raffinate of high-purity yttrium 3+~0.16M.
The objective of the invention is heavy rare earths is that main mixed rare earth chlorides is a raw material, with native annulus alkanoic acid (Naphtnenie Aoid, be designated hereinafter simply as HA) be extraction agent, by one not good liquor-liquid counter-current extraction, from the mishmetal that contains yttrium 50-70% high purity high yield purification yttrium is provided and is suitable for the extraction process condition of industrial production yttrium.Because naphthenic acid has the high efficiency separation yttrium, therefore, is extracted organic phase with naphthenic acid-naphthenic acid ammonium-mixed fatty alcohol-kerosene, without a minute group rare-earth, can directly obtain purity>99.99% from mixed rare earth chlorides solution, high-purity y of yield>98% 2O 3The technology of high efficiency separation yttrium provided by the invention is not reported in patent.
Processing condition provided by the invention are as follows:
1. organic phase: (1) extraction agent: naphthenic acid is and the symbiotic pentacyclic monocarboxylic acid that contains of oil, is the petroleum industry by product, cheap, loading capacity is big, nontoxic, its molecular formula is generally write as CH 3(CH 2) n- -(CH 2) m-COOH, acid number are 174, proportion 0.9330(20 ℃), apparent molecular-weight average 300-350, refractive index η 20 D14753
(2) thinner: commercially available kerosene
(3) additive: C 7-9Mixed fatty alcohol (below write a Chinese character in simplified form ROH),
Interpolation ROH can improve the flowability of organic phase.
(4) extracted organic phase is by the %ROH(volume ratio of the M naphthenic acid of (0.65-0.70) M naphthenic acid ammonium-(0.15-0.30)-(15-20))-kerosene forms.
2. material solution: after decomposing with dense HCl based on the mixed rare-earth oxide of heavy rare earths, regulate rare earth concentration to 0.8-1M.
3. washing lotion: 2-2.5NHCl
4. by 1-(4), 2 and 3 form extraction system
5. above-mentioned extraction system is carried out fractionation extraction in 60 milliliters of separating funnels.Because the partition ratio of yttrium less than other rare earth ion, is pressed the extraction constant difference of HA to each rare earth ion in extraction process, the rare earth ion that is carried on rare earth in the organic phase and aqueous phase exchanges the result of extraction.Non-yttrium rare earth progressively is enriched in the organic phase.Yttrium is then stayed water and is constantly obtained purifying, through 50-60 level liquid-liquid fractionation extraction, and the purity of yttrium>99.99%, direct yield>98% contains y in the low yttrium rare earth behind the separating yttrium 2O 31.2-1.5%.
Advantage of the present invention
1. be that the separating effect of extraction agent extracting rare-earth ion pair yttrium is remarkable with the native annulus alkanoic acid, the partition ratio minimum of yttrium in the extraction system, its extraction position is positioned at
Figure 85102220_IMG3
Therefore only after the system, do not need the rare earth grouping with a simple extraction system, can be light, single stage method purification yttrium the mishmetal of heavy rare earths from containing, reach the purpose of the high yield of high purity (>99.99%) (>98%) recovery yttrium.
2. adopt HA-NH 4A(naphthenic acid ammonium salt)-and ROH-kerosene is the advantage of extracted organic phase: (1) enters in the preceding extracted organic phase of extraction system and allocates finite concentration NH into according to the requirement of processing condition 4The method of A, the organic middle-weight rare earths concentration of may command also keeps ph value of aqueous phase stable.(2) add in the extracted organic phase that a certain amount of ROH has improved the flowability of organic phase more effectively and the separating effect that do not influence yttrium.
3. yttrium content 1.2-1.5% in the low yttrium rare earth of Huo Deing can directly be used as and separate the single rare earth raw material.
4. the rare earth back extraction in the organic phase is more or less freely, as with 3 mol HCl or HNO 3/ 1 mol rare earth ion, excessive 0.2 normal sour back extraction once can guarantee back extraction ratio>98% of rare earth.
5. the method for regeneration organic phase is simple, handles 1-2 time as usefulness~3NHCl, uses H 2O is washed till scrub raffinate PH>4, and organic phase promptly can be recycled.
6.HA be natural compounds, cheap, can reduce high-purity y significantly 2O 3Production cost.
7. extraction system provided by the invention also is applicable to and contains y 2O 3The purification of yttrium in>50% the mishmetal.(mishmetal comprises Y and ordination number 57-71 element).
Embodiment provided by the invention is as follows
With 0.8-0.9MHA and NH 4A is an extraction agent, from Y 2O 3The high yield of single stage method (>98%) obtains high-purity Y of purity>99.99% in the enriched substance based on heavy rare earths of content 63% (containing light rare earths 6-7%) 2O 3
1. extracted organic phase: (15-20) HA concentration is organic phase 1 volume of 0.85M in the %ROH-kerosene (volume ratio), adds 12N NH 4The OH0.056 volume makes HA and NH in the organic phase 4The reaction of OH equivalent, generation consists of: 0.18MHA-0.67M NH 4A-(15-20) %ROH(volume ratio)-extracted organic phase of kerosene.
2. material solution: HCl decomposition mixed rare-earth oxide is a rare-earth chloride solution, Y in the rare earth 2O 3Content sees Table 1 for 63%(rare earths material composition).The adjusting rare earth concentration is 1M, PH3-4.
3. washing lotion: 2NHCl
