Abstract:
      Based on low content of rubidium in lixivium, effect of phase ratio (O/A) on rubidium extraction was investigated. The results show that rubidium extraction rate of three-stage countercurrent extraction is 94.67% and rubidium is separated from potassium and sodium under the optimum conditions including t-BAMBP concentration of 1.5 mol/L, O/A=1/1, extraction time of 2 min, and temperature of 40 ℃. 98.95% of potassium and 95.70% of sodium in rubidium-loaded organic phase is removed by countercurrent washing, which purity of rubidium compound is ensured.
