Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing rare earth chloride from mixed rare earth concentrate or monazite concentrate and belongs to the field of hydrometallurgy. According to the method, the rare earth chloride with the rare earth leaching rate reaching 94.87-99.26% is prepared by controlling the alkali decomposing temperature, the reaction time and the reaction pressure of the mixed rare earth concentrate or the monazite concentrate in the high-pressure alkali decomposing process. The method has the beneficial effects that the mineral decomposing rate is high under the high-pressure condition, the decomposing temperature is reduced, the reaction time is shortened, and energy conservation and environment friendliness are achieved; caustic soda can be recycled, so that cost is reduced; no three-waste pollution is generated, and various valuable elements are comprehensively recycled; and the technological process is short, and the method is suitable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing rare earth chloride solution from mixed rare earth concentrate or monazite concentrate, which belongs to the field of hydrometallurgy. Background technique [0002] Baotou mixed rare earth concentrate is a unique compound rare earth mineral in my country. It is mainly composed of bastnaesite and monazite. Bastnaesite is rare earth fluorocarbonate, and monazite is rare earth phosphoric acid. Salt, the mass ratio of bastnaesite to monazite in the mine fluctuates between 9:1 and 9:4. Baotou mixed rare earth concentrate contains monazite, which is chemically stable at high temperatures and is difficult to decompose at room temperature; in addition to bastnaesite and monazite, Baotou mixed rare earth concentrate also contains iron minerals (Fe 2 o 3 , Fe 3 o 4 ), Fluorite (CaF 2 ), barite (BaSO 4 ), apatite (Ca 5 F(PO 4 ) 3 ) and other minerals, the mineral composition structure is complex; the cerium ...
