Abstract

The invention discloses a method for efficiently separating and extracting metal indium from an acid solution. A mixed extracting agent for extracting indium comprises bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate, tributyl phosphate and hydrophobic room-temperature molten salt. The mixed extracting agent (hydrophobic room-temperature molten salt+TBP+P204) for extracting indium has specificity when used for extracting In<3+> in a sulfuric acid solution, ions such as Fe<3+> and Zn<2+> are hardly extracted, efficient reverse extraction can be achieved on an indium-rich organic phase or high-purity metal indium can be obtained through constant-potential electrodeposition, the technological process is not affected by the ions such as Fe<3+> and Zn<2+>, and therefore efficient separation and extraction of indium are achieved.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal smelting, in particular to a method for efficiently separating and extracting metal indium from an acidic solution. Background technique: [0002] Indium has a strategic position in the fields of electronics, telecommunications, optoelectronics, national defense, and communications, and is a supporting material for the development of high-tech. Indium is an associated metal. There is no independent indium deposit in nature. It mainly exists in zinc sulfide ore in the form of associated deposits. Hydrometallurgy is the most important zinc smelting method in the world today. 85% of zinc in my country is produced by wet Zinc hydrometallurgy is mainly based on the “roasting-leaching-purification-electrodeposition” process. Under this process, indium and impurity metals are enriched in the leaching slag. Therefore, the zinc hydrometallurgy waste slag becomes the primary One of the main raw materials of i...
