The invention belongs to the field of wet
metallurgy, and particularly relates to a method for preparing high pure
scandium oxide from a
hydrochloric acid mother liquid for producing
zirconium oxychloride. The method comprises the following steps of (1) extracting the
hydrochloric acid mother liquid, separating by
centrifugation to remove water phase from an organic phase and for demulsification and washing with acid; (2) subjecting an organic phase loaded in the acid solution to reverse extraction and
filtration, discharging the filtrate, dissolving filter residues with acid and extracting; (3) subjecting the organic phase to reverse extraction and
filtration, discharging the filtrate, and dissolving the filter residues with acid; (4) regulating a pH value of the acid solution, adding
oxalic acid to precipitate
scandium, filtering,
roasting the filter residues, then dissolving the roasted residues with acid and filtering; (5) regulating a pH value of the filtrate, adding
oxalic acid to precipitate
scandium again, filtering,
roasting the filter residues again, boiling the roasted residues in an
acid water, regulating the pH, filtering, washing with water,
roasting and
drying to obtain a product. The method is used for preparing the high pure
scandium oxide from an acid liquid solution with complex components, and changes wastes into valuables. A
separation technology employing a baffle-free type self-flow extraction tank, a variable frequency technique and a
centrifugal extractor is used to solve technical problems of difficult phase separation and serious emulsification in the extraction technology, and conditions for recovering valuable metals from the complex material liquid are provided.
