Abstract:

Using zinc-containing phosphating slag as raw material,firstly use NaOH leaching to obtain Na3PO4 solution,then remove the trace amount of zinc in the solution by extraction method and add FeCl3·6H2O to the purified liquid to obtain iron phosphate product.The experimental results showed that NaOH leaching can effectively remove the metal ions in the phosphate ing slag and then obtain the Na3PO4 solution containing a trace amount of zinc.The leaching rate of the phosphate can reach 93.97% and the total utilization rate can reach 78.31%.The dithizone and P204 extractants were used to extract the solution.The zinc extraction effect of double extractant was significantly better than their corresponding single extractant effect.When O∶A=1∶5,the extraction rate of zinc was up to 55.39% and the content of zinc in the product iron phosphate was less than 30.0 μg/g.Research showed that the use of NaOH leaching and dithizone and P204 double extractant impurity removal method can effectively recover the phosphate in the zinc-containing phosphating slag and prepare battery-grade iron phosphate.

Key words: zinc-containing phosphating slag, iron phosphate, dithizone, P204
