Preliminary Research on the Extraction of Rare Earth Elements from Phosphate Rock with Ion Exchange Method

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 5, 2016 | pp. 11-15
Rare earth associated phosphate rock was dissolved with 55% nitric acid to obtain the digested solution,where rare earth elements were extracted with ion exchange method.Effects were studied of ion exchange time,eluent pH,EDTA concentration and calcium ion in the digested solution on rare earth extraction.The results show that the optimum technological conditions are as follows:ion exchange time of 50 min,eluent pH of 9.0,EDTA concentration of 0.020 mol/L and elution time of 50 min.Under the above conditions,rare earth adsorption rate of the resin can be up to 50%from the digested solution by one step ion exchange,and rare earth elution rate is beyond 94% by one step elution.Rare earth adsorption rate significantly increases after calcium is removed from the digested solution by concentrating and freezing.

Study on New Process of Alkaline Reduction Smelting of Descloizite

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 5, 2016 | pp. 20-25
An alkaline reduction smelting method has been proposed to efficiently extract the valuable metals such as vanadium,lead and zinc from the descloizite ore.Through alkaline reduction smelting process,PbO is reduced to crude lead and deposited at the bottom.ZnO is reduced to zinc and evaporated into flue gas at high temperature,and then collected as ZnO powder from dust collecting system.Vanadium is transformed into soluble vanadate in the smelting slag,and then dissolved into aqueous solution through subsequent leaching process.The main factors affecting smelting and leaching process were investigated.Adding 10% carbon powder and 35% Na_2CO_3 based on descloizite mass and smelting at 1 250 ℃ for 30 min,the crude lead with higher purity than 97% is obtained with 98.6% lead recovery ratio,and the evaporation ratio of zinc reaches 78.9%.After V-containing smelting slag is leached at 95 ℃ for 90 min with 2∶1 solidliquid ratio,vanadium leaching ratio reaches 97.8%.

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 5, 2016 | pp. 26-31
Using hydrochloric acid as leaching agent,the influences were investigated of leaching temperature,leaching time,ratio of hydrochloric acid volume to red mud mass,and HCl concentration on gallium leaching rate during gallium recovery from red mud by traditional or microwave-assisted hydrochloric acid leaching.The primary and secondary sequence of the factors affecting gallium leaching rate was determined through the orthogonal tests as well as the optimum leaching conditions.The results show that the optimum leaching conditions of traditional hydrochloric acid leaching according to the primary and secondary sequence are as follows:leaching temperature of 100℃,time of 4h,HCl concentration of 8mol/L,and the ratio of hydrochloric acid volume to red mud mass of 7mL∶1g.And those of microwave-assisted hydrochloric acid leaching are as follows:leaching temperature of 80 ℃,leaching time of 25 min,the ratio of hydrochloric acid volume to red mud mass of 7mL∶1g,and HCl concentration of 7mol/L.Compared with traditional hydrochloric acid leaching process,microwave-assisted hydrochloric acid leaching process has higher gallium leaching rate,lower leaching temperature,shorter leaching time and lower hydrochloric acid concentration.

Research on Effects of High-pressure Torsion on Dense Consolidation and Strengthening-Toughening of Refractory Tungsten Metal Powder

Rare Metals and Cemented Carbides | Vol., Issue 5, 2016 | pp. 37-42
Pure tungsten powder was successfully directly consolidated into the dense material by high-pressure torsion at 440 ℃.The effects of HPT on dense consolidation,grain refinement and room-temperature brittleness of pure tungsten powder were investigated by metallographical microscope,micro Vickers hardness tester,scanning electronic telescope and X-ray diffractometer.The experimental results indicate that the pores among tungsten particles are effectively closed by high pressure torsion,particles are well combined and the interface has no obvious gaps.The microhardness of tungsten billet prepared by HPT is HV854~1 194,its grain size is 141~394nm,and its room-temperature microhardness indentation is neat with clear boundary and without crack defect in four corners.Compared with powder pressing and sintering process,high-pressure torsion process can more effectively eliminate particle agglomeration,reduce pore number,refine grain size and improve microstructure uniformity and room-temperature brittleness.
