The equipment required for ammonium metatungstate solvent extraction mainly includes the following categories:
Mixing and stirring equipment
Agitator
It is used to mix the solvent and tungsten-containing solution during the extraction process to promote full contact and reaction between the two. The design of the agitator should ensure uniform mixing and avoid excessive or low local concentration.
Mixing tank/reactor
It is used to hold the solvent and tungsten-containing solution and provide sufficient space for mixing and reaction. The size and shape of the mixing tank/reactor should be selected according to the actual production scale.
Extraction equipment
Extractor
This is the core equipment of the solvent extraction method, which is used to achieve phase separation between the solvent and the tungsten-containing solution. The extractor usually adopts a multi-stage countercurrent extraction method to improve the extraction efficiency and purity. The design and operating parameters of the extractor (such as the number of stages, phase ratio, flow rate, etc.) should be optimized according to actual production needs.
Separation and recovery equipment
Separating funnel/centrifuge
It is used to separate the organic phase and the aqueous phase after extraction. The separating funnel is suitable for small-scale production, while the centrifuge is suitable for large-scale production. These devices should be able to achieve two-phase separation efficiently and accurately.
Distiller/Recovery Tower
Used to recover and recycle the extractant. Since the extractant is usually volatile, flammable and toxic, the recovery process should be carried out in a closed system and equipped with corresponding safety measures.
Detection and Control Equipment
pH Meter
Used to monitor and adjust the pH value of the solution to ensure the stability and efficiency of the extraction process.
Thermometer/Thermostat: Used to monitor and control the temperature during the extraction process to avoid affecting the extraction effect due to temperature changes.
Flow Meter/Pump
Used to accurately control the flow and flow rate of the solvent and tungsten-containing solution to ensure the stability and controllability of the extraction process.
Auxiliary Equipment
Storage Tank/Storage Tank
Used to store solvents, tungsten-containing solutions and extracted products. The storage tank/storage tank should have good sealing and corrosion resistance.
Pipeline and Valve
Used to connect various equipment and control the flow direction of materials. The selection of pipelines and valves should take into account the properties of the material (such as corrosiveness, viscosity, etc.) and operating conditions (such as pressure, temperature, etc.).
In summary, the equipment required for ammonium metatungstate solvent extraction covers multiple aspects such as mixing and stirring, extraction, separation and recovery, and detection and control. The selection and configuration of these equipment should be comprehensively considered and optimized based on the actual production scale, material properties and operating conditions.
