The invention relates to the technical field of non-
ferrous metal hydrometallurgy, in particular to a method for separating
molybdenum and
rhenium from
molybdenum smelting waste acid by using resin, which comprises the following steps: adding a
phosphorus source into the
molybdenum smelting waste acid, and then adjusting the acidity to an acid environment in which the
hydrogen ion concentration is greater than or equal to 1mol / L; molybdenum and
rhenium in the molybdenum
smelting waste acid with the acidity adjusted are separated through weak-base anion exchange resin, and a
rhenium product with the lower molybdenum
impurity content is obtained. According to the method, the
phosphorus source is added into the molybdenum smelting waste acid, so that
phosphate ions are hydrolyzed from the
phosphorus source, molybdenum can be effectively prevented from being adsorbed by the alkalescent anion exchange resin, the selectivity of the anion exchange resin to rhenium is greatly improved, and the rhenium
recovery rate and the molybdenum-rhenium separation effect are improved; the problems that in the prior art,
ion exchange resin is difficult to adapt to molybdenum-rhenium separation under the high molybdenum concentration, the rhenium
recovery rate is low, the rhenium-molybdenum separation effect is poor, and a high-molybdenum-concentration solution cannot be treated are solved.
