1、Recovery of Rare Earth and Cobalt from Co-based Magnetic ScrapsXu Taoi,2, Zhang Xiao-dong3(1 Baotou Research Institute of Rare Earth , Baotou 014030,ChinaNational Engineering Research Center of Rare Earth Metallurgy and Functional Materials,Baotou 014030,ChinaAbstract:Inner Mongolia Baotou Steel Rar

2、e Earth Hi-Tech CO., LTD., Baotou 014030,China)The reuse of RE and cobalt in Co-based magnetic scraps was studied.Making sure feat lixiviated condition is that: 200 mesh, sulfuric acid dosage of 1.4 times theoretic dosage, temperature 90 C, leaching time 1h. The result indicated that lixiviate rate

3、of cobalt and rare earth attained 97.8%, 99.6% respectively. The optimum technology conditions was:Na2S2O8 dosage of 8 times theoretic dosage, oxidation temperature 80 C, oxidation time 2 hour, pH=4.5.Rare earth was precipitated by saturated (NH4)2C2O4 solution, after roasting of rare earth oxalate,

4、 received rare earth oxide. The samarium and gadolinium sum recovery was 96%, 92% respectively. Cobalt-iron residue was soaked by hydrochloric acid, the Fe(OH)3 was preferential solution, pH was adjusted to 1.4 by hydrochloric acid, Co(OH)3 does not dissolved, Cobalt and iron were separated, after r

5、oasting of Co(OH) 3,received cobalt oxide. The total recovery of cobalt was found to be 97% and rare earths was 96%.Keywords: cobalt-based magnetic scrap; cobalt; rare earthCLC number: TE992.3Document code: ASmCo alloy was 70 years of the 20th century developed a new type of permanent magnetic mater
