Concentration and separation of rubidium in complex processing of alkaline-aluminosilicates

Subject of investigation: alkaline aluminosilicate raw materials. Purpose: development of new rubidium and potassium production separation methods on the basis of physicochemical investigations and development of a rational and effective process of extraction of rubidium. Certain novelty is found in the results of investigation of solubility in carbonate systems, in the quantitative laws of distribution of rubidium during the solution crystallization and in the mechanism of sorption of alkali metals by white slime. New methods are developed and proposed for separation of rubidium concentrates in the production systems of processing of alkaline aluminosilicate raw materials. The results of the investigations were used in the All-Union Research and Design Institute of Aluminium, Magnesium and Electrode Industry during the work concerning the expediency of processing of some raw materialsAvailable from VNTIC / VNTIC - Scientific & Technical Information Centre of RussiaSIGLERURussian Federatio
