The invention relates to a method of iron extraction and removal with
solvent extraction agent and belongs to the technical field of wet
metallurgy. The method includes processes of extraction, reverse extraction and iron
precipitation conversion. The detailed operation is that an organic phase is used for extracting iron in an aqueous phase, then an iron-rich organic phase is obtained, iron reverse extraction agent is directly used for reversely extracting iron, or firstly, non-
ferrous metals are reversely extracted with
mineral acid, and then the iron reverse extraction agent is again used for reversely extracting the iron. The iron reverse extraction agent is
hydrochloric acid-
chloride solution, wherein the concentration of C1- is 4-18 mol / L, and the concentration of H+ is 0.2-3 mol / L. At the time of reverse extraction, contact reverse extraction is carried out on the iron-rich organic phase and the reverse extraction
iron agent according to the
volume rate of 0.3-3:1. After
phase splitting, an
iron content water phase and a blank organic phase are obtained. The blank organic phase is washed with
acid water and then returned to the extraction process for recycling. Alkaline substance is added into the
iron content water phase and the value of potential of
hydrogen (pH) is adjusted to 2.5-8.5, iron
precipitation is filtered, and iron containing filter residues and
chloride solution are obtained. The
hydrochloric acid is added into the
chloride solution, the concentration of H+ is adjusted to 0.2-3mol / L, then the chloride solution is returned to the iron reverse extraction process for recycling, and iron is comprehensively recovered from the
iron content filter residues. The method of the iron extraction and removal with the
solvent extraction agent has the advantages of being simple in the technology, good in iron reverse extraction, low in production cost, environment-friendly and the like and is suitable for industrial production.
