The invention discloses a cleaning assisting filter. The cleaning assisting filter comprises a box body and a box cover, the box body comprises a first feeding port, a second feeding port, a first discharging port, partition plates, a hole structure and a three-way structure, the box body is separated by different partition plates, the partition plates divide the box body into small box bodies A to E, and holes are formed in the partition plates. The numbers of the partition plates and three-way structures, the hole height, the hole
diameter, the partition plate height and the volume of the small box bodies are controlled to enhance separation of an organic phase and a water phase, so the problem that
niobium liquid or
tantalum liquid carries the organic phase in the
tantalum-
niobium hydrometallurgy process is solved, the quality of
niobium-
tantalum products and the niobium-tantalum direct
recovery rate are improved, meanwhile, the organic phase can be recycled, the circulation efficiency of the organic phase is improved, and the production cost is reduced. The small box body D has a filtering and adsorbing function and can be used for removing substances such as suspended matters,
slag bodies or plastic scraps carried in the niobium liquid or tantalum liquid, so that the quality of niobium-tantalum product is improved. The cleaning assisting filter has the characteristics of small occupied area, remarkable separation effect, convenience in operation, easiness in maintenance, easiness in industrialization and the like.
