Abstract:
      Separation of residue sulfuric acid prior to vanadium extraction from acid leaching solution of stone coal was performed by solvent extraction. Effects of reductant sodium sulfite dosage, extractant tri-octyl amine concentration, temperature, and reaction duration on extraction rate of sulfuric acid were investigated. The results show that sulfuric acid concentration in leaching solution drops from 110 g/L to 5.25 g/L after four-stage extraction under the optimum conditions including sodium sulfite dosage of 2 g/L, tri-octyl amine concentration of 40%, temperature of 25 ℃, reaction duration of 2 min, and O/A=1/1. PH value of leaching solution reaching to 2.3 can be directly used in vanadium extraction. Stripping efficiency of sulfuric acid is 99% above after five-stage stripping with 60 ℃water as strip extractant at O/A=1/3. No additional agents are consumed in extraction process, the organic phase can be recycled and recovered sulfuric acid can be reused.
