Problems solved by technology

In the existing recycling process of rare earth waste resources, pre-roasting, fine grinding, oxidative roasting, excellent solvent extraction, neutralization and impurity removal, extraction separation, oxalic acid precipitation and burning processes are mainly used to recover the above-mentioned NdFeB waste. The process technology is only suitable for high-grade and high-quality waste materials, such as ultra-fine powder, oil sludge, slag, scrap, scrap products, etc.
[0003] However, there are more than 20% of special waste in the recycling process, especially for high-silicon and low-content NdFeB waste (such as chamfering mud, wire cutting materials, etc., which contain more impurities such as Al and Si, and the rare earth content is less than 1.5%) NdFeB waste), using the existing technology, the pre-roasting process cannot be carried out smoothly, and the pellets are getting bigger and bigger, making it difficult to effectively implement the existing technology
Therefore, NdFeB waste with high silicon content and low content is basically in a situation where it cannot be recycled.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of rare earth waste resource recycling, and particularly relates to a method for recycling rare-earth elements from neodymium iron boron waste with high silicon content and low rare earth content. The method is characterized in that the neodymium iron boron waste with high silicon content and low rare earth content is mixed with neodymium iron boron waste with high rare earth content as well as fluffy powder, so that a pre-roasting process can be normally performed, and performing of a follow-up process is facilitated, and therefore, recycling for rare-earth elements with high silicon content and low rare earth content is realized. The method is suitable for a process for recycling rare earth from neodymium iron boron waste with high silicon content and low rare earth content, can effectively recycle praseodymium-neodymium oxide, dysprosium oxide, gadolinium oxide and terbium oxide, has a recovery rate of 93%, 95%, 90% and 91%, and developsa novel way for comprehensively treating and recycling rare earth elements from neodymium iron boron waste, so that wider resources are sufficiently recycled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of recycling rare earth waste resources, in particular to a method for recovering rare earth elements from high-silicon and low-content NdFeB waste. Background technique [0002] In 2017, the output of NdFeB in my country exceeded 170,000 tons, and the annual NdFeB waste generated was about 65,000 tons. Due to different processing methods, many types of NdFeB wastes are produced in the process of producing NdFeB, such as ultrafine powder, oil sludge, grinding mud, chamfering mud, wire cutting material, dry powder, slag, material skin, material head , powder, scrap products, defective products, wire saw mud, multi-line mud and sweeping ash, etc. In the existing recycling process of rare earth waste resources, pre-roasting, fine grinding, oxidative roasting, excellent solvent extraction, neutralization and impurity removal, extraction separation, oxalic acid precipitation and burning processes are mainly used...
