[0002] In the production of natural uranium, uranium purification and uranium conversion are key steps. Uranium purification involves dissolving uranium oxides in nitric acid, followed by extraction and back-extraction, calcination for denitrification, and then oxidation-reduction to UO2.

[0031] Briefly describe the working principle of this invention:
[0032] A method for preparing uranium tetrafluoride based on a reducing hydrofluorination reaction is provided, applied to the aforementioned uranium tetrafluoride preparation system based on a reducing hydrofluorination reaction. The following preparatory work is performed before preparing uranium tetrafluoride:
[0033] 1. Solid ammonium fluoride is placed inside the ammonium fluoride heating tank 11;
[0034] 2. Fill the inner cavity of the gas separator 2 with solid potassium difluorocyanide, ensuring that the lower port of the mixed gas inlet 21 is inserted into the potassium difluorocyanide, and the upper ports of the ammonia outlet 22 and the hydrogen fluoride outlet 23 are both located above the potassium difluorocyanide.
[0035] The steps are as follows:
[0036] S01, thermal decomposition of ammonium fluoride:
[0037] Open valve B on ammonium fluoride heating tank 11; start heating device A to control the temperature in the inner cavity of ammonium fluoride heating tank 11 at 160-180℃, so that the solid ammonium fluoride in the inner cavity of ammonium fluoride heating tank 11 thermally decomposes to produce ammonia and hydrogen fluoride. The mixed gas of ammonia and hydrogen fluoride is discharged through the mixed gas outlet 111 of ammonium fluoride heating tank 11.
[0038] In this step, the following reaction occurs: NH4F → NH3 + HF.
[0039] SO2, alternately separating ammonia and hydrogen fluoride in the mixed gas:
[0040] A. Start the heating device B to control the temperature in the inner cavity of the gas separator 12 at 90-110℃. Open valve B on the ammonium fluoride heating tank 11, open valve C on the gas separator 12, and close valve D on the gas separator 12. The mixed gas generated in the ammonium fluoride heating tank 11 is then introduced into the inner cavity of the gas separator 2 through the mixed gas inlet 21. Hydrogen fluoride in the mixed gas reacts with potassium difluoride to form potassium fluoride complex salt. The potassium fluoride complex salt is molten at 90-110℃ (the melting point of the potassium fluoride complex salt is lower than that of potassium difluoride). Ammonia in the mixed gas is insoluble in the molten potassium fluoride complex salt and is discharged from the ammonia outlet 22. During this process, the potassium fluoride complex salt is periodically sampled through the sampling port 124 to detect the hydrogen fluoride content. When the mass percentage of hydrogen fluoride in the potassium fluoride complex salt reaches 50%-55%, it indicates that the absorption of hydrogen fluoride by potassium difluoride is close to saturation, and the process proceeds to step B.
[0041] B. Using heating device B, control the temperature in the inner cavity of gas separator 12 at 110-200℃. Close valve B on ammonium fluoride heating tank 11, close valve C on gas separator 12, and open valve D on gas separator 12. Stop the flow of the mixed gas generated in ammonium fluoride heating tank 11 into the inner cavity of gas separator 12. Hydrogen fluoride in potassium fluoride composite salt overflows at 110-200℃, turning back into free hydrogen fluoride gas, and is discharged from hydrogen fluoride outlet 123. During this process, periodically sample potassium fluoride composite salt through sampling port 124 to detect the hydrogen fluoride content in potassium fluoride composite salt. When the mass percentage of hydrogen fluoride in potassium fluoride composite salt drops to 30%-35%, it indicates that the hydrogen fluoride in potassium fluoride composite salt has been almost completely released. Repeat step A.
[0042] In this step, ammonia and hydrogen fluoride in the mixed gas are separated alternately by performing sub-steps A and B alternately.
[0043] In this step, the following reaction occurs in sub-step A: F2HK + nHF → KF·(n+1)HF.
[0044] In this step, the following reaction occurs in substep B: KF·(n+1)HF→F2HK+nHF.
[0045] In this step, the ammonia gas separated in step A contains a small amount of hydrogen fluoride, and the purity of the ammonia gas is greater than 80%. The hydrogen fluoride gas separated in step B contains a small amount of ammonia, and the purity of the hydrogen fluoride gas is greater than 95%.
[0046] SO3, the reducing hydrofluorination reaction of uranium oxide:
[0047] A. On the one hand, uranium oxide is fed into the fluidized bed A21 through the feed inlet A213. On the other hand, ammonia gas separated from the gas separator 12 is fed into the fluidized bed A21 through the gas inlet A211. The temperature of the fluidized bed A21 is controlled between 500-650℃ to reduce the uranium oxide. The final solid produced includes a mixture of uranium dioxide (large amount) and uranium tetrafluoride (small amount). The final residual tail gas includes water vapor, nitrogen and excess ammonia.
[0048] B. The mixture produced by fluidized bed A21 is discharged through discharge port A214 and then sent to intermediate container X22 for temporary storage through feed port X221. Intermediate container X22 serves to adjust the reaction process, reduce the difficulty of control, and prevent cross-contamination between fluidized bed A21 and fluidized bed B23.
[0049] C. On the one hand, the material temporarily stored in the intermediate container X22 is discharged through the discharge port X222 and then enters the inner cavity of the fluidized bed B23 through the feed port B233. On the other hand, the tail gas discharged from the fluidized bed C25 is input into the inner cavity of the fluidized bed B23 through the air inlet B231. The temperature of the fluidized bed B23 is controlled at 260-320℃ to perform preliminary hydrofluorination of uranium dioxide. The final solid produced includes uranium tetrafluoride, and the final remaining tail gas includes water vapor, nitrogen and excess hydrogen fluoride.
[0050] D. The material produced by fluidized bed B23 is discharged through discharge port B234 and then sent to intermediate container Y24 for temporary storage through feed port Y241. Intermediate container Y24 serves to adjust the reaction process, reduce control difficulty, and prevent cross-contamination between fluidized bed B23 and fluidized bed C25.
[0051] E. On the one hand, the mixture temporarily stored in the intermediate container Y24 is discharged through the discharge port Y242 and then enters the inner cavity of the fluidized bed C25 through the feed port C253. On the other hand, the hydrogen fluoride separated by the gas separator 12 is sent into the inner cavity of the fluidized bed C25 through the air inlet C251. The temperature of the fluidized bed C25 is controlled at 380-420℃ to perform deep hydrofluorination of uranium dioxide. The final solid produced includes uranium tetrafluoride. The final residual tail gas includes water vapor, nitrogen and excess hydrogen fluoride. The tail gas is discharged through the exhaust port C252 and then sent into the inner cavity of the fluidized bed B23 through the air inlet B231.
[0052] In this step, ammonia gas is added in excess in sub-step A to ensure that uranium oxide is fully reduced.
[0053] In this step, hydrogen fluoride in sub-step E is added in excess to ensure that uranium dioxide is fully hydrofluorinated.
[0054] In this step, the following reactions mainly occur in sub-step A: 4NH3 + 3U3O8 → 9UO2 + 2N2 + 6H2O; U3O8 + 8HF → 2UO2F2 + UF4 + 4H2O; 6UO2F2 + 4NH3 → 3UO2 + 3UF4 + 2N2 + 6H2O.
[0055] In this step, the following reaction mainly occurs in sub-steps C and E: UO2 + 4HF → UF4 + H2O.
[0056] In this step, the input gas in sub-step C contains water vapor. On the one hand, water vapor can mitigate the initial intense reaction between uranium dioxide and hydrogen fluoride, which is beneficial for protecting the reaction. On the other hand, water vapor has a high thermal conductivity, which allows the heat generated by the reaction in fluidized bed B23 to be conducted away more quickly.
[0057] S04, exhaust gas recovery and utilization:
[0058] A. The exhaust gas produced by the three-stage fluidization mechanism is discharged through exhaust port A212, exhaust port X223, exhaust port B232, exhaust port Y243 and exhaust port C252 respectively. All exhaust gas enters the inner cavity of condenser 31 through gas inlet A311 and is condensed into acidic wastewater containing hydrogen fluoride and ammonium ions in the inner cavity of condenser 31.
[0059] B. After the acidic wastewater is discharged from the condensate outlet 312 of the condenser 31, silica gel balls are used to adsorb uranium ions in the acidic wastewater.
[0060] C. The acidic wastewater after uranium removal is fed into the inner cavity of the crystallization tank 32 through the condensate inlet 321. The filtrate in the crystallization tank 32 is heated and evaporated until ammonium fluoride crystals precipitate, resulting in a saturated ammonium fluoride solution. The saturated ammonium fluoride solution is cooled to room temperature to reduce the solubility of ammonium fluoride, allowing more ammonium fluoride crystals to precipitate. During the heating and evaporation of the filtrate, ammonia gas is volatilized and discharged through the ammonia outlet B324. The ammonia gas then enters the scrubbing tower 35 through the gas inlet B351, where it is scrubbed to recover ammonia water. During the precipitation of ammonium fluoride crystals, the third stirring device is continuously started to ensure that the ammonium fluoride crystals are evenly dispersed in the saturated ammonium fluoride solution, forming a slurry. The slurry is discharged through the slurry outlet 322.
[0061] D. After the slurry is discharged from the slurry outlet 322, it enters the plate filter 33 through the slurry inlet 331 for solid-liquid separation. The separated solid is ammonium fluoride crystals, which are discharged from the solid outlet 333 and then sent to the microwave dryer 34 for drying to obtain solid ammonium fluoride. The separated liquid is a solution containing ammonium ions, which is discharged from the filtrate outlet 332 and then returned to the crystallization tank 32 through the ammonia water replenishment port 323. It is heated and evaporated again to volatilize ammonia gas. The ammonia gas is discharged through the ammonia gas outlet B324 and then enters the scrubbing tower 35 through the gas inlet B351. After scrubbing, ammonia water is obtained.
[0062] In this step, the following reaction occurs in sub-steps C and D: NH3·H2O→NH3+H2O.
