Embodiment 1

[0025] A method for reclaiming rare earth and iron from the superfine powder waste produced in the NdFeB production process, comprising the following steps:

[0026] (1) The superfine powder waste produced in the NdFeB production process is acid-dissolved with hydrofluoric acid with a mass concentration of 5%, and hydrofluoric acid is added at a ratio of 40mL / g according to the liquid-solid ratio, and fully stirred at room temperature , so that iron oxide is completely dissolved, and rare earth elements form rare earth fluoride precipitation;

[0027] (2) The precipitate is filtered, washed and dried to obtain solid A1 and filtrate B1, A1 is a rare earth fluoride, and B1 is a hydrofluoric acid solution in which iron oxide is dissolved. ICP-AES analysis of B1 shows that the recovery efficiency of each rare earth element is La77.3%, Ce81.7%, Pr99.8%, Nd99.8%, Gd99.8%, Tb99.8%, Dy99.6% , Ho100%. The total recovery efficiency of rare earth is 99.7%;

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for recovering rare earth and iron from ultrafine powder waste generated in a neodymium iron boron production process. The method comprises the following steps of firstly dissolving the ultrafine powder waste generated in the neodymium iron boron production process in an acid, stirring to enable the waste to be completely reacted, then filtering and collecting filtrate and filter residue, and washing the filter residue and drying to obtain a rare earth fluoride. According to the method for recovering the rare earth and the iron from the neodymium iron boron production process, waste water, waste gas and waste liquid are not generated in the whole process, unreacted hydrofluoric acid can be reused, rare earth elements in the ultrafine powder are recovered in a form of rare earth fluoride and can be directly used as a raw material of an electrolytic rare earth, and the iron in the filtrate is recovered in forms of ferric fluoride or iron oxide by electrolysis. According to the method, the recovery rate of the rare earth is greatly improved, the rare earth and the iron in the ultrafine powder are recycled, and meanwhile, zero waste discharge in the ultrafine powder recovery process is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of rare earth metallurgy, and in particular relates to a method for recovering rare earth and iron from superfine powder waste produced in the production process of neodymium iron boron. Background technique [0002] Because of its excellent magnetic properties, NdFeB permanent magnet materials are widely used in various fields of high-tech industries such as new energy vehicles, wind power generation, medical equipment, military equipment, and electronic products. With the development of these high-tech industries Rapid development, the amount of NdFeB permanent magnet materials will further increase. At this stage, China produces about 150,000 tons of NdFeB permanent magnet materials every year, accounting for more than 80% of the world's total output, and every ton of NdFeB produced will generate about 200-300 kg of waste. These wastes include ultra-fine powder produced in the milling process, oil sludge...
