[0002] As a common fluorination reagent, potassium fluoride is not only widely used in the production of organic synthesis fluorochemical industry, but also because its aqueous solution is alkaline and can corrode glass and porcelain, it is often used in glass engraving, food preservation and electroplating industries. In addition, it can also be used as a welding flux, catalyst and desiccant for water removal, etc. Therefore, the demand for potassium fluoride is increasing year by year. Among them, in the production of fluorochemical industry, a large amount of by-product mixed salt of potassium fluoride and potassium chloride is generated. At present, the domestic separation methods are all to convert potassium chloride or potassium fluoride into another salt by methods such as hydrogen fluoride, fluosilicic acid, boron trifluoride, etc. to separate them, and the separation of the two mixed salts has not been truly realized. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for treating a mixed salt (potassium fluoride and potassium chloride) generated by the fluorination of flufenacet in view of the large amount of mixed salt of potassium fluoride and potassium chloride generated during the fluorination of the intermediate difluoronitrobenzene of flufenacet.

[0007] Preferably, the weight ratio of the mixed salt to water is 1:0.1 - 5.

[0008] The weight ratio of the mixed salt to the solvent is 1:0.1 - 5.

[0009] The weight ratio of the mixed salt to the solvent is 1:0.1 - 3.

[0011] Preferably, the solvent is one or more of ethanol, ethyl acetate, N,N-dimethylformamide, and acetonitrile.

[0012] Furthermore, the mixed salt of potassium fluoride and potassium chloride produced by fluorinating diflufenican is dissolved in a mixed solution of a solvent and water, heated to 75 - 100 °C and kept warm for 2 h, then cooled to room temperature, filtered, the precipitate collected and dried to obtain potassium chloride with a content of over 99%; the filtrate collected by filtration is heated to 100 - 160 °C for solvent removal and concentration to obtain an aqueous solution of potassium fluoride, which is spray-dried to obtain highly active potassium fluoride with a content of over 99%.
