Patent

CA 2753832

The invention relates to a method for recovering rare earth elements from a solid mixture containing a halophosphate and at least one compound of one or more rare earth elements, including: (a) acid etching the mixture; (b) adding a base to bring the pH back up to a value of at least 1,5; (c) etching the solid from step (b) with a solution of soda or potash; (d) acid etching the solid from step (c) until a pH of less than 7 is obtained, resulting in a solid phase and a liquid phase including at least one rare earth salt, and separating the solid phase from the liquid phase.

Le procédé de l'invention pour la récupération des terres rares à partir d'un mélange solide contenant un halophosphate et au moins un composé d'une ou plusieurs terres rares comprend (a) une attaque acide du mélange; (b) l'addition d'une base pour remonter le pH à une valeur d'au moins 1,5; (c) une attaque du solide issu de l'étape (b) par une solution de soude ou de potasse; (d) une attaque acide du solide issu de l'étape (c) jusqu'à l'obtention d'un pH inférieur à 7, ce par quoi on obtient une phase solide et une phase liquide comprenant au moins un sel de terre rare et on sépare la phase solide de la phase liquide.
