The present application discloses a method for extracting chemical elements from
red soil, relates to the field of mineral technology, and solves the problems in the prior art that
red soil cannot be fully utilized, red
desertification is formed, and
red soil has many minerals and is highly acidic. The method comprises: taking a portion of a red soil sample, adding an acidic solution, mixing and
roasting, adding water after cooling to
room temperature, stirring, condensing and refluxing, naturally cooling, filtering and
drying to obtain a first
solid and a first filtrate; adding
hydrogen peroxide to the first filtrate and adjusting the pH value to 3-4, filtering to obtain a second filter residue and a second filtrate, and calcining the second filter residue to obtain a second
solid; adding
ammonia water to the second filtrate to adjust the pH value to 9, and introducing CO2 gas until the pH value is between 7 and 8, filtering to obtain a third filter residue and a third filtrate, calcining the third filter residue to obtain a third
solid, and evaporating to obtain a fourth solid. The purpose of having a high extraction rate of chemical elements in the red soil is achieved, and the reaction is simple and the production cost is low.
