Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of resource recovery, in particular to a method for recovering iodine from fluorine-containing iodinated hydrocarbon waste liquid. Background Art

[0002] Fluorinated iodocarbons are widely used in numerous fields, including chemical engineering, pharmaceuticals, and materials. However, their production process generates a large amount of waste liquid, which contains abundant iodine resources. Iodine is a scarce and strategically important resource. Directly discharging fluorinated iodocarbon waste liquids would not only result in a significant waste of iodine resources, but also cause serious environmental pollution due to fluorine-containing substances and other components.

[0003] Currently, existing technologies for recovering iodine from iodinated fluorinated hydrocarbon wastewater present numerous challenges. Some methods suffer from low recovery efficiency and fail to fully extract the iodine from the wastewater; some require complex processes and high equipment requirements, resulting in high production costs; and some methods are prone to introducing new impurities during the recovery process, affecting the purity of the recovered iodine and making it difficult to directly reuse the recovered iodine, limiting its industrial application. Therefore, the development of an efficient, low-cost, high-purity recovery method that can recycle iodine is urgent. Summary of the Invention

[0006] S2 solvent extraction separation: add a perfluorinated solvent to the mixed aqueous solution obtained in S1, mix thoroughly and allow to stand for separation. After separation, the upper layer is an aqueous phase containing iodide ions, and the lower layer is an organic phase containing fluorinated alcohol and perfluorinated solvent;

4. The method for recovering iodine from iodinated fluorine-containing hydrocarbon waste liquid according to claim 1, wherein: The oxidant is one of hydrogen peroxide, nitric acid, nitrous acid, perchloric acid and chlorine.

5. The method for recovering iodine from iodinated fluorine-containing hydrocarbon waste liquid according to claim 1, wherein: The organic extractant is one of n-pentane, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, ether, petroleum ether and dichloromethane.

6. The method for recovering iodine from iodinated fluorine-containing hydrocarbon waste liquid according to claim 5, wherein: The organic extractant is added with an iodine ion liquid accounting for 0.5-3% by mass of the extractant, and the preparation method thereof is as follows: In a reaction vessel equipped with a stirrer and a reflux condenser, 100-120 parts of a 20-30% by mass 1-iodopropane solution in tetrahydrofuran is added, the temperature is raised to 50-60° C. with stirring, and 25-35 parts of tributylphosphine, 0.05-0.35 parts of 2-methyl-4-chloromethylthiazole-tributylphosphine, and 0.5-0.9 parts of tri-n-butylphosphonium tetrafluoroborate are slowly added dropwise; after the dropwise addition is completed, the temperature is maintained under reflux for 12-15 hours to prevent decomposition of the iodide; after the reaction is completed, the reaction solution is transferred to a separatory funnel, anhydrous ether is added, shaken, and the layers are separated, and the upper layer is discarded; the lower layer solution is distilled under reduced pressure at 40-50° C. to remove the tetrahydrofuran solvent to obtain an iodide ion-containing liquid.
