Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of element extraction and state research, and more specifically, to a step-by-step chemical extraction method for studying the occurrence state of rare earth elements in thermally transformed coal. Background Art

[0002] Rare earth elements (REY) are widely used as geochemical indicators for studying the sedimentary environment and later changes of ore deposits due to their consistency and predictability in geochemical processes. In addition, the excellent magnetic, optical, and electrical properties of rare earth elements play a key role in traditional industries such as military, petrochemical, and metallurgy, as well as emerging fields such as permanent magnets, photovoltaic thin films, and catalysts. Therefore, REY has become an important strategic resource for promoting the upgrading of traditional industries, the development of high-tech industries, and the progress of national defense technology, and its value is irreplaceable.

[0003] The study of the occurrence state of REY in coal is very important. It not only provides us with valuable information on peat deposition, coal diagenesis, the formation of coal-bearing basins, and the evolution of regional geological backgrounds, but also has an important impact on aspects such as coal mining, coal preparation, combustion, and comprehensive utilization in practical applications. In particular, the occurrence patterns of REY in coal and coal ash are crucial for developing methods and technologies for extracting REY from coal or coal ash.

[0004] There are various methods for studying the occurrence state of elements in coal. The specific analysis methods are mainly divided into two categories: indirect methods and direct methods. Among them, indirect methods include statistical analysis (mainly including correlation analysis, cluster analysis, and principal component analysis), float-sink method (or density separation), and step-by-step chemical extraction method; direct methods include optical microscopy, proton-induced X-ray emission (PIXE), high-sensitivity high-resolution ion probe (SHRIMP), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy combined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), electron probe analysis (EMPA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS).

[0005] Researchers' understanding of the occurrence state of REY in coal largely depends on indirect methods such as multivariate statistical analysis and sequential chemical extraction experiments. Based on these analysis methods, elements that are weakly or not correlated with the ash yield, remain in the residual organic matter during sequential chemical extraction, and are enriched in the light components during density separation are generally considered to have organic affinity. However, these methods also have some drawbacks. For example, the correlation analysis method in multivariate statistics may sometimes lead to incorrect understandings and judgments. In some cases, an element with a good correlation with the ash yield may not necessarily indicate that it occurs in minerals. In addition, during sequential chemical extraction and density separation experiments, some elements occur in tiny mineral particles. Because they are wrapped by organic matter and enriched in the organic light components or because they cannot be leached out by acid during sequential chemical extraction, they may be misidentified as occurring in organic matter.

[0006] Researchers' understanding of the occurrence state of rare earth elements in thermally altered coal is still not clear enough. The research methods are not systematic and comprehensive enough, and there are significant differences in viewpoints. Especially for the indirect method of sequential chemical extraction experiments, the extraction methods vary, and the total extraction rates of some elements in various forms do not reach between 80% and 120%. The reliability of the experimental data needs to be considered. Therefore, how to improve sequential extraction to ensure the extraction rate and provide a reliable basis for scientific research is an urgent problem for those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0043] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the present invention in combination with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] Instruments and drugs required for the experiment:

[0046] Balance: accurate to 1.0000 g;

[0047] Polytetrafluoroethylene (PFA) sample dissolution cup;

[0048] 150 mL conical flask; suction filtration device;

[0049] 40% HF (GR), 65% HNO3 (GR), 36% HCl (GR), 98% H2SO4 (GR) purified by sub-boiling distillation through an acid purification system; 30% H2O2 (GR); CH3COONH4 (MOS); deionized water;

[0050] Nylon filter membrane with a diameter of 50 mm and a pore size of 0.45 μm;

[0051] Sample pretreatment: The coal samples collected are first air-dried naturally, and then calcite and other impurity veins are removed with a cutting machine. After crushing, the coal samples are ground into fine particles with an agate mortar and passed through a 200-mesh sieve.

[0052] Specific steps:

[0053] The first step (water-soluble state): Weigh 1 g ± 0.0005 g of coal sample into a 150 mL conical flask (number the conical flask before weighing and record its weight for subsequent calculation of the sample mass involved in each form extraction). Add 30 mL of deionized water, seal it with a sealing film, place it in a shaker, and shake it at 20 ± 2 °C and 200 r / min for 12 h. Then take out the sample, cool it to room temperature, and filter it by suction for separation (number the suction filtration device before suction filtration and record the weight of the bottom conical flask for finally reading the constant volume weight after suction filtration is completed). Wash the conical flask three times with 5 mL of deionized water, filter the three washing solutions together into the extraction solution, and squeeze out a small amount of deionized water with a wash bottle to rinse the liquid splashed on the inner wall of the device during suction filtration, ensuring that all the extracted elements are transferred to the suction filtration liquid as much as possible. Add deionized water to the clear liquid filtered by suction to make the volume up to 50 mL for ICP-MS testing.

[0054] Note: One blank sample and one parallel sample are made simultaneously in the experiment.

[0055] The second step (ion-exchange state): The solid residue in the first step is placed in an oven at 50 °C for about 6 h to ensure complete drying. After cooling to room temperature, scrape all the samples into the corresponding conical flask with a weighing spoon, weigh and record. Add 30 mL of 1 mol / L CH3COONH4, and the oscillation, suction filtration, and volume fixing steps are the same as those in the first step.

[0056] The third step (carbonate-bound state): The solid residue in the second step is placed in an oven at 50 °C for about 6 h to ensure complete drying. After cooling to room temperature, scrape all the samples into the corresponding conical flask with a weighing spoon, weigh and record. Add 30 mL of dilute HCl (3%), and the oscillation, suction filtration, and volume fixing steps are the same as those in the first step.

[0057] The fourth step (sulfide-bound state): The solid residue in the third step is placed in an oven at 50 °C for about 6 h to ensure complete drying. After cooling to room temperature, scrape all the samples into the corresponding conical flask with a weighing spoon, weigh and record. Add 30 mL of dilute HNO3 (5%), seal it with a sealing film, and then place it on a hot plate at 180 °C for digestion for 30 min (after digestion is completed, turn off the hot plate, and wait until it cools to room temperature before taking the conical flask away from the hot plate to prevent the sealing film from being sucked and broken or the conical flask from cracking due to sudden temperature drop). The suction filtration and volume fixing steps are the same as those in the first step.

[0058] Step 5 (Organically bound state): The solid residue in Step 4 is placed in an oven at 50 °C for about 6 h to ensure complete drying. After cooling to room temperature, use a weighing spoon to scrape all the sample into the corresponding conical flask, weigh and record; add 5 mL of dilute HNO3 (20%), seal with a sealing film, place it in a shaker, shake at 20 ± 2 °C and 200 r / min for 12 h; then take out the sample, after cooling to room temperature, add 15 mL, seal with a sealing film and puncture some holes with a syringe, extract at 85 °C in a water bath for 5 h; after cooling to room temperature, add 5 mL of 1 mol / L CH3COONH4, extract at 85 °C in a water bath for 5 h; after cooling to room temperature, the procedures of suction filtration and volume fixation are the same as in Step 1;

[0059] Step 6 (Silicate-aluminate bound state): The solid residue in Step 5 is dried at 50 °C for about 6 h to ensure complete drying. Weigh 0.05 g ± 0.0005 g of the sample into a TFM digestion tube, add 5 mL of HNO3 and 2 mL of HF to the coal sample, and use the UltraClave microwave digester of Milestone Company to carry out digestion according to the set program. Then transfer the digestion solution completely to a 15 mL polytetrafluoroethylene (PFA) sample dissolution cup, evaporate the acid on a hot plate at 180 °C until the size of a soybean, then add 5 mL of HNO3 diluted by 1 time, cover and extract for 4 h, cool, and dilute to 50 mL with deionized water for ICP-MS testing.

[0060] Super microwave digestion program settings:

[0061] The basic load of the digestion tank consists of 330 mL of deionized water, 30 mL of H2O2 and 2 mL of H2SO4. The initial nitrogen pressure is set at 50 bar and the maximum temperature is set at 240 °C. The microwave digestion program is shown in the following table.

[0062] Step Time / h:min:s Temperature / °C Pressure / bar Power / W 1 00:12:00 60 100 1000 2 00:20:00 125 100 1000 3 00:08:00 160 130 1000 4 00:15:00 240 160 1200 5 00:60:00 240 160 1000 Cooling time 00:60:00

[0063] The coal quality data and vitrinite random reflectance (R o,ran ) used in Experiment 1 are shown in Table 1. According to the GB / T15224.1-2018 standard, the ash content (A d ) of the coal samples in the study area varies widely, ranging from extra-low ash coal to extra-high ash coal. The average ash content of the raw coal (LD7-7, LD7-8) not affected by magma is 14.01%, classified as low ash coal. The A d value of the thermally metamorphosed coal (LD7-1 to L7-6) affected by magma fluctuates greatly, ranging from 9.07% to 46.79%, with an average of 21.20%. The average moisture content (M ad ) of the raw coal is 1.92%, while the M ad of the thermally metamorphosed coal ranges from 0.71% to 2.08%, with an average of 1.28%. The volatile matter (V daf) The average value is 34.51%, while the V of the thermally transformed coal daf ranges from 7.69% to 20.03%, with an average value of 13.95%.

[0064] According to the international coal classification standard ISO 11760, the R of the raw coal (LD7-7, LD7-8) samples o,ran has an average value of 0.86% and is classified as medium-rank bituminous coal; the R of the thermally transformed coal (LD7-1 to LD7-6) samples o,ran ranges from 1.39% to 3.83%, with an average value of 2.47%, and its coal rank transitions from medium-rank bituminous coal to high-rank anthracite.

[0065] According to the GB / T 15224.2-2021 standard, the total sulfur content (S t,d ) of the raw coal samples used in the experiment has an average value of 0.2% and is classified as extra-low sulfur coal. In contrast, the total sulfur content (S t,d ) of the thermally transformed coal samples ranges from 0.35% to 3.57%, with an average value of 1.14%.

[0066] Table 1 Proximate analysis and ultimate analysis of coal samples

[0067] Sample number <![CDATA[M ad / %]]> <![CDATA[A d / %]]> <![CDATA[V daf / %]]> <![CDATA[R o,ran / %]]> Coal rank <![CDATA[S t,d / %]]> LD7-1 2.08 46.79 10.77 3.83 High-rank anthracite 3.57 LD7-2 1.86 31.33 7.69 2.64 High-rank anthracite 1.15 LD7-3 0.79 9.07 15.29 2.30 High-rank anthracite 0.66 LD7-4 0.71 16.63 20.03 1.98 Medium-rank bituminous coal 0.35 LD7-5 1.45 11.66 9.98 2.70 High-rank anthracite 0.58 LD7-6 0.77 11.71 19.95 1.39 Medium-rank bituminous coal 0.52 LD7-7 2.05 14.00 34.92 0.85 Medium-rank bituminous coal 0.25 LD7-8 1.78 14.01 34.11 0.87 Medium-rank bituminous coal 0.15

[0068] After adjusting the types and concentrations of the extractants by the method of Example 1, as Figure 2 、 3 shown, the extraction rates of the six-step extraction forms of 15 rare earth elements in the experimental coal samples are basically between 80% - 120%. And through the analysis of the proportion of coal quality and organic-bound state, the present invention not only ensures the normal extraction rate, but also greatly increases the discrimination degree between the organic-bound state and the silicate-aluminate-bound state, and more accurately extracts the rare earth elements associated with the organic components in coal. The proportion of the organic-bound state of rare earth elements in two raw coal samples not affected by magma is higher than that in the thermally transformed coal, and the middle-heavy rare earth elements show stronger organic affinity than the light rare earth elements.

[0069] Comparative Example 1

[0070] The difference from Example 1 is that 5% dilute HNO3 is used as the extractant when extracting the organic-bound rare earth elements in the coal sample in the fifth step.

[0071] The results are as Figure 4 shown. This method seems unable to extract the organic-bound rare earth elements as completely as possible. And this method has certain limitations and cannot ensure that the total extraction rate of rare earth elements in all samples is within the ideal range of 80% - 120%. In addition, there is also uncertainty in distinguishing the organic-bound state and the silicate-aluminate-bound state of rare earth elements by this method, which will affect the accurate assessment of the occurrence state of rare earth elements in coal.

[0072] Comparative Example 2

[0073] Density separation method, using trichloromethane (CHCl3) specific gravity liquid (1.47 g / cm 3 ) to float out the organic matter. The upper and lower layers of the flotation liquid are extracted to obtain organically bound and carbonate-bound states.

[0074] The density of clay minerals is generally 2.4 - 2.6 g / cm 3 , and the density of pyrite is 4.9 - 5.2 g / cm 3 . Therefore, tribromomethane (2.89 g / cm 3 ) is used to separate the clay minerals and pyrite to obtain aluminosilicate-bound and carbonate-bound states.

[0075] However, separation based on density cannot guarantee complete flotation of specific components, and errors are inevitable. Moreover, through experiments, it is found that density separation is not applicable to all coal samples, especially thermally transformed coal samples. Due to the complexity of their coal components, stratification may not occur, or due to the loss of organic matter caused by coal metamorphism, it may even lead to the inability to float out the organic matter from the upper layer of CHCl3, as shown Figure 5 below.

[0076] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner. Each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts among the embodiments can be referred to each other. The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art. The general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to these embodiments shown herein, but will conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
