Problems solved by technology

[0004] When using the above-mentioned non-saponification extraction method to separate rare earth elements, it is necessary to wash the loaded organic phase with dilute acid and use a higher concentration of acid (3-6mol / L) to back-extract the loaded organic phase, which makes the stripping liquid, The acidity of the washing solution and the blank organic phase after back extraction is very high, especially the acidity of the outlet product of the back extraction solution is higher, which is not conducive to the treatment or separation of subsequent products

Abstract

The invention discloses a non-saponification extracting and separating of method for light rare earth element. According to the method, by virtue of a non-saponification extraction agent (organic phase) comprising an acid extraction agent, an alkaline extraction agent and kerosene, chlorinated light rare earth feed liquid is extracted and separated. Water instead of diluted hydrochloric acid or a high-concentration hydrochloric acid is used as a washing agent and a reverse-extraction agent, the stage retention times of the washing section and the reverse-extraction section are controlled so that the blank organic phase after reverse-extraction can be recycled without eluting the acid entrained in the blank organic phase with water, acidities of effluent liquid in the reverse-extraction section and raffinate in the extraction section are low and the subsequent extraction and separation can be performed without neutralizing. According to the method for separating the light rare earth element, the saponification step is not needed and acidic-basic materials are not consumed, the eluting and acid remove steps of the reverse-extraction organic phase are also omitted and thus the production cost is greatly decreased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of hydrometallurgy, and relates to a non-saponification extraction and separation method of light rare earth elements, in particular to a washing and stripping method in the process of extracting and separating light rare earth elements. Background technique [0002] In the ion-adsorption rare earth ores in southern my country, the content of light rare earth elements such as La, Ce, Pr, and Nd is relatively high, and the content of light rare earth elements is as high as more than 50%. The commonly used separation method of rare earth elements is solvent extraction. my country's rare earth industry mostly uses acidic phosphorus-based extractant P507 or P204 to separate light rare earth elements. In order to improve the separation coefficient and extraction rate, the rare earth extraction process usually uses alkaline substances such as ammonia or sodium hydroxide or calcium hydroxide to saponify acidic extractants s...
