The process involves roasting the mud at 480?℃ with NH 4Cl as chlorinating agent, and leaching the calcine with hot water to obtain a rare earth chloride solution. After the solution was further purified, HD(DIBM)P (P 507 ) was applied as extractant to separate RE and Mn. By seven stages of fractional extraction, the RECl 3 and MnCl 2 solutions with 99.8% purity were obtained. Finally, the purified RECl 3 and MnCl 2 solution were precipitated by NH 4HCO 3 to obtain a crystal RE 2(CO 3) 3 and MnCO 3 products respectively.展开更多
