The invention provides a method for treating
rubidium ore through cooperation of
sulfuric acid and
hydrochloric acid and comprehensively utilizing valuable metals, and belongs to the technical field of rare
metal extraction. The ground
rubidium ore is subjected to ore phase activation with
hydrochloric acid,
impurity calcium in the
rubidium ore is synchronously removed, and activated
slag and activated liquid are obtained; decalcifying the activating solution by using
sulfuric acid, and recycling the obtained regenerated
hydrochloric acid; curing and
roasting the activated
slag by using concentrated
sulfuric acid to obtain cured
slag; performing water leaching on the cured slag to obtain
silicon slag and water leaching liquid; separating rubidium from the water extract through controllable cooling
crystallization to obtain a rubidium-containing enriched product and a
crystallization residual liquid, and sequentially dissolving, extracting and reversely extracting the rubidium-containing enriched product to obtain rubidium salt; performing freezing
crystallization on residual crystallization liquid to obtain
potassium alum, and returning crystallization
mother liquor to serve as leaching water. According to the method, rubidium and
potassium products with high economic value are produced, a large number of components of aluminum and
silicon are productized, comprehensive utilization of resources is achieved, and the method has the advantages of being short in technological process and easy and convenient to operate.
