Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a thiourea derivative for the separation of molybdenum and rhenium, a method for preparing the thiourea derivative, and a method for applying the derivative, belonging to the field of hydrometallurgical separation technology. Background Technology

[0002] Rhenium is an important strategic metal, playing an irreplaceable role in the manufacture of nickel-based single-crystal blades for aero-engines. Since rhenium has no independent deposits and is mainly found as a byproduct of molybdenite, its resource recovery is highly dependent on molybdenum metallurgical processes. During the oxidative roasting or pressure leaching of molybdenite, rhenium is extracted as perrhenate (ReO4). - It enters the solution in the form of molybdate (MoO4) and reacts with molybdate ions (MoO 2- Together, they form a mixed solution containing molybdenum and rhenium. Achieving efficient separation of molybdenum and rhenium from this mixed solution is the core technological step in rhenium resource recovery.

[0003] Currently, the main methods for separating molybdenum and rhenium include solvent extraction, ion exchange, and chemical precipitation. Solvent extraction is the most widely used method in industry, based on the difference in the partition ratios of molybdenum and rhenium between the organic and aqueous phases. Commonly used extractants include amine extractants (such as trioctylamine and trialkyl tertiary amines), phosphorus extractants (such as P204 and P507), and neutral extractants (such as TBP). However, existing extraction systems generally suffer from insufficient selectivity.

[0004] Molybdenum and rhenium have similar chemical properties, both existing as oxygen-containing anions in aqueous solutions. Many extractants have limited ability to extract these two substances, resulting in low separation coefficients (typically Re / Mo separation coefficients less than 50). Often, 5-8 stages of countercurrent extraction are required to achieve ideal separation, leading to long process flows and high equipment investment. Furthermore, some extraction systems suffer from problems such as high water solubility of the extractant, easy emulsification, and difficulty in back-extraction, affecting the stability and economic efficiency of the process.

[0005] Therefore, developing a foam extraction agent specifically for the separation of molybdenum and rhenium that has a simple preparation process, high selectivity, and high separation efficiency has significant industrial application value and theoretical innovation significance. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to overcome the problems of poor reagent selectivity and low separation efficiency in existing molybdenum-rhenium separation technologies. One of the objectives of the present invention is to provide a thiourea derivative for the separation of molybdenum and rhenium. This thiourea derivative can achieve efficient separation of molybdenum and rhenium in a molybdenum-rhenium coexisting system, and has good stability, reusability and environmental friendliness.

[0007] The second objective of this invention is to provide a method for preparing a thiourea derivative for the separation of molybdenum and rhenium. This method prepares a thiourea derivative agent that can specifically recognize rhenium ions by condensation reaction of amine compounds with carbon disulfide. Moreover, this preparation method does not require high-temperature and high-pressure equipment, is simple to operate, and is suitable for industrial production.

[0008] The third objective of this invention is to provide a method for the application of thiourea derivatives in the separation of molybdenum and rhenium. This method is simple and can be widely used in the resource recovery of systems such as molybdenite roasting leaching solution, pressurized leaching solution, and rhenium-containing waste catalyst leaching solution, and has good prospects for industrial application.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, a first aspect of the present invention is to provide a thiourea derivative for the separation of molybdenum and rhenium, wherein the thiourea derivative is used to separate molybdenum and rhenium;

[0010] The thiourea derivative has the structure shown in formula (1):

[0011] Equation (1);

[0012] R1 and R2 are each independently substituted or unsubstituted C6~C. 18 Alkyl groups, substituted phenyl groups;

[0014] ReO4 - The hydration energy (approximately -250 kJ / mol) is significantly lower than that of MoO4. 2- (Approximately -400 kJ / mol), this originates from ReO4 - It possesses a larger ionic radius, lower charge density, and weaker hydrophilicity. This difference in hydration energy makes ReO4... - It is easier to dehydrate and coordinate with thiourea derivatives, while MoO4 2- These tend to remain in the aqueous phase. However, this invention has found that the thiourea derivatives provided by this invention have an inherent difference in their binding ability to molybdenum and rhenium. The sulfur atoms in the thiourea derivatives bind to ReO4. - There are strong soft-soft interactions between rhenium atoms, while for MoO4... 2- The effect is relatively weak. Furthermore, by introducing R1 and R2 groups into the thiourea skeleton, a suitable hydrophobic microenvironment can be constructed, reducing ReO4 levels. - The degree of hydration after coordination amplifies the dehydration effect, enhances the interfacial enrichment capacity of thiourea derivatives, and improves the steric hindrance to ReO4. -Selective identification enables highly selective capture of rhenium. This invention achieves this by reducing ReO4. - The degree of hydration after coordination amplifies the dehydration effect; enhances the enrichment capacity of thiourea derivatives at the gas-liquid interface and improves the receptivity to ReO4 through steric hindrance. - The selective recognition of multiple synergistic effects enables the Re / Mo separation coefficient to reach over 200, which is much higher than that of existing solvent extraction systems (usually less than 50), and the ideal separation effect can be achieved with single-stage extraction without the need for multi-stage countercurrent operation.
