Abstract
The invention relates to a method for recovering rare earth elements from waste red phosphor. The method is characterized by: carrying out a calcination pretreatment on collected waste red phosphor in a calcination furnace kiln, and removing organic substances and other elements easily forming volatile gases in the red phosphor; carrying out dissolution decomposition on the calcined red phosphor in an acid (HCl, HNO3)-oxidant (H2O2)-stabilizing additive (acetic acid) composite acid system, and controlling to obtain a low acidity, such that rare earth elements such as Y and Eu or other rare earth in the red phosphor are preferentially dissolved, and completely enter the solution, and the other elements are insoluble substances, and are removed by filtration; after obtaining a rare earth acid solution, adopting an ammonia-free saponified fractionation extraction system to carry out extraction separation to obtain a high purity single rare earth chloride such as YCl3 and EuCl3 or other chlorinated rare earth enriched product solutions; and carrying out processes of precipitation and ignition to obtain a single rare earth oxide such as Y2O3 and Eu2O3 or other rare earth enriched product oxide products.
