Abstract:
      Stone coal was roasted and sulfuric acid leached. Separation of vanadium from the vanadium containing solution with impurities of Fe3 , Fe2 , Al3 and Mg2 was conducted through solvent extraction process with D2EHPA and TBP as extractant and sulfonated kerosene as diluent. The effects of impurities on vanadium extraction rate are discussed. The results show that extraction ratio of V4 is higher than that of V5 , and Fe3 has a negative effect on extraction ratio of V4 when its mass concentration exceeds 5 g/L. The co-extraction ratios of Al3 and Mg2 markedly decrease when their mass concentrations are lower than 10 g/L. Extraction experiments with D2EHPA indicates that 99% of V4 can be extracted from the real leaching solution after reduction process, leaving most of Fe2 , Al3 and Mg2 in raffinate. The extracted Fe2 remains in the stripped organic phase, and Al3 and Mg2 remain in the waste water of vanadium precipitation. Pure V2O5 can be obtained.
