Description

The method of extracting and separating zirconium and hafnium in nitric acid medium
Technical field
The present invention relates to purification technique field, in particular to the method for extracting and separating zirconium in nitric acid medium and hafnium.
Background technology
The always symbiosis in nature of zirconium hafnium.Hafnium content (m in general commercially available zirconium chemicalsHf/m(Zr+Hf)) less (one As be 1%~3%), if will have larger advantage using the extractant of preferential extraction hafnium when being detached to it.Because of " group of the lanthanides Shrink ", atomic radius, the ionic radius of zirconium and hafnium are essentially identical, and physicochemical properties are closely similar, are separated from each other very tired It is difficult, it is considered to be one of element of separation is most difficult in the periodic table of elements.But since zirconium and hafnium have different nuclearity energy, zirconium is to warm Neutron absorption cross-section is small, is used as nuclear reactor involucrum and structural material extensively, and hafnium content is required to be less than 0.01% in nuclear grade zirconium, And hafnium has big thermal neutron absorption cross section, is mainly used as the neutron control rod of nuclear reaction, zirconium content is required to be less than in core grade hafnium 2%.Therefore, separation of zirconium and hafnium is the key that obtain nuclear grade zirconium hafnium material.
Nuclear power is a kind of clean energy resource of economical and efficient, does not discharge sulfur dioxide, flue dust, nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide. Part thermoelectricity is substituted with nuclear power, can not only reduce exploitation, transport and the burning total amount of coal or power industry emission reduction pollution The effective way of object even more slows down the important measures of global greenhouse effect.Each state is all greatly developing nuclear power in recent years, promotes The development and concern of separation of zirconium and hafnium technology develop a variety of separation of zirconium and hafnium methods, such as fused salt rectification method, ion-exchange and solvent Extraction etc..Since solvent extraction has, balancing speed is fast, good separating effect, treating capacity are big, operation is easily continuous, at low cost etc. A series of outstanding advantages become the main method of separation of zirconium and hafnium, by extraction system point, there is neutral extraction system, acid extract body System, alkaline extraction system, chelate extraction system and synergistic system.At present, the extractant and extraction system reported are only MIBK, Cyanex 301, Cyanex 302 and D2EHPA isopreferences extract the hafnium that content is less in zirconium chemicals, equal in addition to MIBK Be to weak solution (<10g/L zirconiums) it is extracted, it is unfavorable for industrial applications.
MIBK methods are the 20 th century America development and application seventies in industrial production, and the nuclear grade zirconium hafnium in the whole world nearly 2/3 produces use The method separating zirconium and hafnium.MIBK methods are in SCN-The hafnium that content is less in zirconium hafnium is preferentially extracted under existence condition in hydrochloric acid medium, and is contained It measures more zirconium and stays in water phase, so as to fulfill the separation (reaching 9 or so to the separation of zirconium hafnium) of zirconium and hafnium, extractant capacity Greatly, it is efficient.But there are some shortcomings for MIBK methods:(1) solubility is up to 1.7wt% to MIBK in water (is that solubility is most in water One of high extractant), solvent loss is big;(2) it needs to use unstable thiocyanic acid (and rhodanate), in acid condition Toxic decomposition product is easily resolved into, such as hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan and CN-Deng pollution environment;(3) MIBK has certain smell, So that operation workshop condition is poor;4. MIBK flash-points are low, fire hazardous.For MIBK techniques there are the drawbacks of, show have very much The necessity improved or replaced.
Diisobutyl ketone (DIBK) is a kind of neutrality oxygen-containing kind of extractants similar to MIBK structures, and the two has similar Extraction ability and similar extraction mechanism, the difference in structure causes its property as extractant also variant, such as DIBK 47 DEG C of flash-point, and only 22.78 DEG C of the flash-point of MIBK;The water solubility of DIBK is 0.043wt%, and MIBK is up to 1.7wt%.Exactly Due to these shortcomings of MIBK methods, its commercial Application is limited.
When using diisobutyl ketone (DIBK) as extractant at present, need using thiocyanic acid or its salt, due to thiocyanic acid Or its salt has higher toxicity, in separation process not environmentally.
