Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, because zirconium oxychloride waste acid contains a large amount of ions such as zirconium, titanium and iron, its extraction properties are very similar, so it is very difficult to extract and separate scandium, and there are few related literature or patent reports
The Chinese patent with publication number CN102605199A discloses a method for recovering scandium from zirconium oxychloride waste acid and an extractant. The extractant is a mixture of 70-99% by volume P350 and 1-30% by volume P507. The extractant is especially suitable for extracting scandium from this waste acid liquid, effectively separating titanium, zirconium, thorium and other rare earth impurities in the waste liquid. The use of P507 and P350 as extraction agents in the preparation of crude products is expensive, resulting in a substantial increase in production costs, which is not conducive to industrialization

Abstract

The invention provides a method for extracting scandium oxide from zirconium oxychloride waste acid. The method comprises the steps of: a) extracting zirconium oxychloride waste acid by utilizing an extractant I to obtain an organic phase I, wherein the extractant I comprises P204, tributyl phosphate, a modifier and a diluting agent I; b) washing the organic phase I by using a washing liquid I, to obtain an organic phase II, wherein the washing liquid I is water or a diluted acid solution; c) washing the organic phase II by utilizing washing liquid II to obtain an organic phase III, wherein the washing liquid II is a mixed solution of hydrogen peroxide and diluted acid; d) washing the organic phase III by utilizing a washing liquid III to obtain an organic phase IV; and 3) backextracting the organic phase IV by taking an alkaline solution as a back-extractant, filtering and roasting a water phase to obtain scandium oxide. Compared with the prior art, the method is lower in cost and higher in recovery rate by taking P204 and tributyl phosphate as extractants.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of rare earth recovery, and in particular relates to a method for extracting scandium oxide from zirconia waste acid. Background technique [0002] Rare earths are widely used, especially in high-tech industries, and are mostly used in the fields of new energy materials and high-strength aluminum alloys. The main sources of rare earths are ionic rare earth ore, monazite ore and bastnaesite. However, scandium, a rare earth element, is special and cannot be produced from the above-mentioned ores. Its distribution in the earth's crust is extremely scattered. There are only a few independent minerals, and the ore source is small. It is also extremely rare in nature. It is mainly associated with aluminum, zirconium, and Among minerals such as titanium, scandium reserves in the world are only about 2 million tons. [0003] At present, the recycling of scandium mainly focuses on the treatment of titanium white wa...
