Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical isotope production, relates to a method for recovering and purifying a target material, and specifically relates to a method for recovering and purifying a nickel target material in a process of preparing Cu-64. Background Art

[0002] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention, and should not necessarily be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

[0003] Cu-64 is an important medical radioisotope that can emit both β - (0.653 MeV, 17.4%) and β + (0.579MeV, 3.9%), with a half-life of 12.7h, can perform PET (positron emission tomography) diagnosis and treatment simultaneously, and is expected to be used in integrated diagnosis and treatment research based on radionuclides. Due to the convenience of production and the limitation of half-life, Cu-64 is usually produced by accelerator irradiation of Ni-64, and then separated by AG1-X8 to obtain Cu-64 that meets the standard product. As the raw material for the production of Cu-64, Ni-64 has a high market price and accounts for an important proportion of the production cost of Cu-64. It needs to be recycled and reused in the production process of Cu-64. The purity of the recovered Ni-64 directly affects the purity of the Cu-64 product. If the impurity content of other radionuclides such as Fe, Cu, Zn, Co, and Au in Ni-64 can be reduced, the amount of impurities generated during the irradiation process can be reduced, thereby improving the yield and nuclear purity of Cu-64.

[0004] At present, the separation methods for preparing positron nuclide Cu-64 by accelerator irradiation nickel include anion column separation, Cu resin separation, etc. Anion column separation is to use Cu, Co, and Ni to form complexes with chloride ions to varying degrees under hydrochloric acid conditions. For separation, both Cu and Co can form complex anions in the hydrochloric acid medium and be adsorbed on the anion resin, among which the complexing ability of Cu is stronger than that of Co, especially under the conditions of 4mol / L and 5mol / L hydrochloric acid, the adsorption capacity of the anion resin for Cu and Co is very different. However, nickel has almost no complexing ability for chloride ions and is not adsorbed by the resin, thereby completing the separation of Cu from Co and Ni. And the advantage of ion exchange resin separation of Cu is that the available Ni raw material target material is purified and recovered to a certain extent, but the purity is not high. As a leaching resin, Cu resin has a specific adsorption capacity for copper under the condition of pH = 2 to 5, and has almost no adsorption for Co and Ni, which can better separate Cu from other elements. After obtaining the target product Cu, the large amount of element Ni remaining in the solution can be reused as the raw material for the next target production due to its high price, but due to the different purification methods and efficiencies of Cu, there are impurities of different contents in Ni, which will affect the purity of Ni after recovery, and then cause too many impurities to be generated during the next target shooting, which will cause trouble for the separation and purification of copper. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the problem of a large amount of impurities (Fe, Cu, Zn, Co, Au, etc.) in the nickel target material recovered in the process of preparing Cu-64, so as to improve the yield and nuclear purity of Cu-64 prepared by using recycled nickel target material, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a recovery and purification method for nickel target material in the process of preparing Cu-64. The recovery and purification method provided by the present invention can significantly reduce impurities such as Cu and Co, greatly improve the nickel purity in the recovered nickel target material, and the nickel recovery rate is relatively high.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is:

[0007] In a first aspect, a method for recovering and purifying a nickel target material in a Cu-64 preparation process comprises the following steps:

[0008] Adding an acid solution to the recovered nickel solution in the process of preparing Cu-64 to adjust the hydrogen ion concentration to 6-8 mol / L, thereby obtaining an acidic nickel solution;

[0009] Using TK201 resin to perform a column separation on the acidic nickel solution to obtain an effluent;

[0010] The effluent is subjected to secondary column separation using AGMP-1 resin to obtain a recovered purified nickel solution.

[0011] The extractant loaded by TK201 resin is tertiary amine, which can bind hydrogen ions. Under different hydrogen ion concentrations (i.e., acidity), the degree of tertiary amine binding to hydrogen ions is different. The present invention first adjusts the acidity of the recovered nickel solution. Studies have shown that when the acidity is 6-8 mol / L, the distribution coefficient of TK201 resin to elements such as Cu, Zn, and Co is 30-150, and the distribution coefficient to nickel is only 3-5. Therefore, the present invention first adjusts the hydrogen ion concentration of the recovered nickel solution to 6-8 mol / L, and then uses TK201 resin for column separation to pre-separate Ni from impurities such as Cu, Zn, and Co in the recovered nickel solution. However, after separation by TK201 resin column alone, the content of impurities such as Cu and Co is still high. Therefore, the present invention further separates by column through AGMP-1 resin of macroporous anion resin, and adsorbs impurities such as Cu and Co on the ion column, which can significantly reduce impurities such as Cu and Co, and greatly improve the purity of nickel in the recovered nickel target.

[0012] The present invention can achieve high recovery rate of nickel through the above technical solution. In order to further improve the recovery rate of nickel, the present invention uses an acid solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of 6 to 8 mol / L to wash the separation column after the primary column separation, and the washing liquid is mixed with the effluent for secondary column separation. Although the TK201 resin has a low distribution coefficient for nickel under the condition of an acidity of 6 to 8 mol / L, it can still adsorb a small amount of nickel. In order to recover this part of nickel, the present invention further uses an acid solution of 6 to 8 mol / L for washing, thereby achieving a high recovery rate of nickel. Although the washing liquid contains a small amount of impurities such as Cu, Zn, and Co at this time, its content is less, and the subsequent use of AGMP-1 resin for secondary column separation can avoid the increase of the impurity content of Cu, Zn, and Co in the recovered purified nickel solution.

[0013] In order to realize the reuse of TK201 resin, the present invention uses an acid solution with a pH of 2 to 3 to elute the TK201 resin after the primary column separation or after washing with a 6 to 8 mol / L acid solution.

[0014] On the other hand, a recovery and purification system for a nickel target material in a Cu-64 preparation process is provided, which is used to implement the above recovery and purification method, comprising:

[0015] A nickel solution acidity adjustment device is used to adjust the hydrogen ion concentration of the nickel solution recovered in the process of preparing Cu-64;

[0016] A first separation column, filled with TK201 resin, for performing a primary column separation on the acidic nickel solution from the nickel solution acidity adjustment device;

[0017] The second separation column is filled with AGMP-1 resin and is used for performing secondary column separation on the effluent from the first separation column.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0019] The present invention adjusts the acidity of the recovered nickel solution to 6-8 mol / L. The TK201 resin has different distribution coefficients for various metal ions under the acidity condition. At this time, nickel and other impurity metal ions can be pre-separated, and then AGMP-1 resin is used for further column separation. Cu, Co, Zn and other impurity ions can be further adsorbed on the ion column, thereby obtaining a higher-purity recovered and purified nickel solution. Compared with the method of recovering nickel by Cu resin, TK221 resin and TK201 resin, the method provided by the present invention has a lower impurity content in the obtained recovered and purified nickel solution and a higher recovery rate. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are exemplary and are intended to provide further explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.

[0021] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit exemplary embodiments according to the present invention. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0022] In view of the presence of a large amount of impurities (Fe, Cu, Zn, Co, Au, etc.) in the nickel target material recovered in the process of preparing Cu-64, which affects the yield and nuclear purity of the recycled nickel target material in preparing Cu-64, the present invention proposes a method for recovering and purifying the nickel target material in the process of preparing Cu-64.

[0023] A typical embodiment of the present invention provides a method for recovering and purifying a nickel target in the process of preparing Cu-64, comprising the following steps:

[0024] Adding an acid solution to the recovered nickel solution in the process of preparing Cu-64 to adjust the hydrogen ion concentration to 6-8 mol / L, thereby obtaining an acidic nickel solution;

[0025] Using TK201 resin to perform a column separation on the acidic nickel solution to obtain an effluent;

[0026] The effluent is subjected to secondary column separation using AGMP-1 resin to obtain a recovered purified nickel solution.

[0027] Before column separation, the filling resin is generally placed in a solution of corresponding acidity for immersion and then filled into the separation column; or, after the filling resin is filled into the separation column, a corresponding solution is added so that the filling resin is completely soaked with the solution of corresponding acidity. In the embodiment of the present invention, before column separation, after the filling resin (TK201 resin, AGMP-1 resin, etc.) is filled into the separation column, hydrochloric acid with an acidity of 6 to 8 mol / L is used to completely soak the filling resin in the separation column, and then column separation is performed.

[0028] The present invention can significantly reduce impurities such as Cu and Co and greatly improve the nickel purity in the recovered nickel target material through the column separation and coordination of TK201 resin and AGMP-1 resin.

[0029] The acid solution of the present invention may be hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, etc. In some embodiments, the acid solution is hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid contains chloride ions, which can cooperate with the resin to complex metal ions, thereby achieving high-efficiency adsorption of impurity metal ions.

[0030] In some embodiments, the volume ratio of the acidic nickel solution to the TK201 resin is 5:1 to 5. Under this condition, the impurity metal ions can be better removed and the recovery rate of Ni can be guaranteed. When the volume ratio of the acidic nickel solution to the TK201 resin is 5:1 to 1.2, the impurity metal ions are better removed and the recovery rate of Ni is higher.

[0031] In some embodiments, an acid solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of 6 to 8 mol / L is used to wash the separation column after the primary column separation, and the washing liquid is mixed with the effluent to perform secondary column separation. By washing with a 6 to 8 mol / L acid solution, a small amount of nickel adsorbed on the TK201 resin can be recovered to improve the recovery rate of nickel.

[0032] In one or more embodiments, the ratio of the volume of the acid solution used for washing to the volume of the TK201 resin column is 1:1 to 5. Under this condition, the recovery effect of nickel is better.

[0033] In some embodiments, during the primary column separation, the loading speed of the acidic nickel solution onto the column is 0.1 to 2 mL / min, preferably 0.5 to 1.0 mL / min.

[0034] In some embodiments, the particle size of TK201 resin is 100 to 150 microns. Studies have shown that the separation effect is better under this condition.

[0035] In some embodiments, the mesh size of the AGMP-1 resin is 100 to 200 meshes. Studies have shown that the separation effect is better under this condition.

[0036] In some embodiments, after the primary column separation, the TK201 resin after the primary column separation or after the washing with the 6-8 mol / L acid solution is eluted with an acid solution with a pH of 2-3, so that the TK201 resin can be reused and the recycling cost can be reduced.

[0037] A second embodiment of the present invention provides a system for recovering and purifying a nickel target in a process of preparing Cu-64, which is used to implement the above-mentioned recovery and purification method, comprising:

[0038] A nickel solution acidity adjustment device is used to adjust the hydrogen ion concentration of the nickel solution recovered in the process of preparing Cu-64;

[0039] A first separation column, filled with TK201 resin, for performing a primary column separation on the acidic nickel solution from the nickel solution acidity adjustment device;

[0040] The second separation column is filled with AGMP-1 resin and is used for performing secondary column separation on the effluent from the first separation column.

[0041] In some embodiments, an acid liquid storage device and a mixing device are included. The acid liquid storage device provides an acid solution to the first separation column after primary column separation to wash the TK201 resin in the first separation column. The washing liquid after washing enters the mixing device. The effluent after primary column separation enters the mixing device. The washing liquid and the effluent are mixed in the mixing device and then enter the second separation column for secondary column separation.

[0042] In some embodiments, a recovered purified nickel solution collecting device is included, which is used to collect the recovered purified nickel solution after secondary column separation in the second separation column.

[0043] In order to enable those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the technical solution of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments and comparative examples.
