Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the extraction methods of rubidium mainly include: fractional crystallization, precipitation, ion exchange, solvent extraction and other rubidium extraction processes. Most of these rubidium extraction methods are from brine with high rubidium content, rubidium-containing lepidolite or Rubidium is extracted from cesium garnet, and there is no better method for rubidium-containing feldspar with a wide range of occurrence forms and large reserves

Abstract

The invention discloses an extraction method of rubidium, which comprises the steps of raw material treatment, alkali leaching, extraction and back extraction. The method specifically comprises the following steps: taking the raw material rubidium-containing feldspar, and pulverizing for later use; adding an alkaline solution of which the liquid-to-solid ratio is 1-6 into the treated raw material, mixing, and adding the mixture into a pressurized reaction kettle to carry out reaction to form a slurry, and filtering, wherein the filter residue is used as the raw material for producing cement, and the filtrate is for later use; adding an extractant t-BAMBP of which the volume ratio is 1-5 into the filtrate to carry out extraction, thereby obtaining a rubidium-carried organic phase; and adding HCl of which the volume ratio is 1-8 into the rubidium-carried organic phase to carry out back extraction, thereby obtaining rubidium chloride. By carrying out alkaline leaching on the raw material rubidium-containing feldspar in the pressurized reaction kettle, the invention can obviously enhance the leaching rate of rubidium (up to higher than 98%), has the advantage of short reaction time (min 0.5 hour), and provides conditions for comprehensive utilization of rubidium-containing feldspar.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of non-ferrous metal smelting, and specifically relates to a method for extracting rubidium. Background technique [0002] Rubidium is an extremely important resource of rare precious metals, which has important economic and strategic significance. It has important applications in traditional fields such as electronic devices, photovoltaic cells, catalysts, special glass, biochemistry and medicine, and in some high-tech fields, such as magnetic fluid power generation, thermionic conversion power generation, ion propulsion rockets, laser conversion electric energy Devices and other aspects have also shown an increasingly important role. In particular, thermoelectric transducers made of rubidium can realize thermionic thermonuclear power generation inside the reactor if it is used in conjunction with an atomic reactor. [0003] Today, when various resources are relatively scarce in the world, rubidium, as a metal w...
