The invention relates to the field of the
chemical industry, and especially relates to a preparation method of highly pure
vanadium pentoxide. The method comprises the following steps: oxidizing tetravalent
vanadium in back extraction water obtained in a total hydrometallurgical
vanadium extraction process to form pentavalent vanadium; forming an oversaturated
system of pentavalent vanadium, precipitating to obtain a polyvanadic acid precipitate, carrying out
solid-liquid separation to separate a solution containing a high content of impurities, washing the polyvanadic acid precipitate, adding the washed precipitate to a
sulfuric acid solution, carrying out heat insulation uniform stirring, and adding an
ammonium bicarbonate solution to prepare a highly pure product, wherein polyvanadic acid gradually forms a polyammonium
vanadate precipitate having a lower
solubility due to the
solubility of polyammonium
vanadate is less than the
solubility of polyvanadic acid; and calcining the polyammonium
vanadate precipitate to generate vanadium
pentoxide. The method has the advantages of no influences on present technologic main flow or production equipment, short production flow, low production cost, and no leakage or
environmental protection due to closed circular running of the highly pure vanadium
pentoxide production flow and original flow. 3000t of the highly pure vanadium pentoxide can be produced yearly.
