Abstract
As a kind of alternative of natural fluorinated minerals and raw material for producing anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, fluorosilicic acid has attracted more and more attention. In order to raise its utilization rate, dilute fluorosilicic acid solution coming from chemical enterprises needs to be concentrated. The extraction technology with benzyl alcohol as extraction agent was used to concentrating fluorosilicic acid aqueous solution. In order to determine the optimizing operation conditions of the extracting process, single - factor experiments were carried out to confirm the significant affecting factors and their operating range. Then the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was conducted to accomplish regression of a nonlinear quadratic polynomial model to the experimental data and statistical analysis. Based on these studies, the optimal technical parameters of extracting process are acquired by optimization of the model using the Design-Expert 13 software. The statistical analysis for the fitting response surface quadratic equation model indicated that the model was reliable and accurate with very low p-values (<0.0001), the predicted values with the model equation had remarkable consistency in experimental data. By a great number of optimizations carried out with the Design Expert 13 software based on the fitting model equation, the optimal extractive processing conditions for concentrating fluorosilicic acid aqueous solution were obtained: the phase ratio 7, the extraction time 120.11 min and the extraction temperature 39.70 °C. The optimal concentration of fluorosilicic acid is 26.68 %. In order to increase the concentration of fluorosilicic acid, three-stage cross-current extraction for dilute fluorosilicic acid solution was carried out at the optimizing extracting conditions, 17.43 wt% fluorosilicic acid solution can be concentrated up to 37.46 wt%. The extractant-benzyl alcohol can be recovered with vacuum distillation and recovery rate reached up to 98 %.
