Removal of organic matter from H2TaF7 solution by adsorption

The removal of organic matter from H2 TaFT solution by adsorption was investigated in order to reduce the carbon content in the K2TaF7 crystal. Three kinds of adsorbent, LSA-5 resin, LSA-20 resin and active carbon were applied in the fixed bed respectively. Experimental results indicate that LAS-5 resin, LAS-20 resin, the mixture of LAS-5 resin and LAS-20 resin(with volume ratio of 1：1), and the active carbon can all reduce chemical oxygen demand(COD) value of the H2TaF7 solution, and reduce consequently carbon content of K2TaF7 crystal to 0.0010%-0.0015% from 0.002 5%-0.0030%. Comparing with the others, the active carbon is an approved adsorbent whose bed volumes of effluent reaches 70. In addition, there is a linear relationship between the COD value of H2TaF7 solution and the carbon content in K2TaF7 crystal, and the carbon content in K2TaF7 crystal decreases with the decreasing of COD value of H2TaF7 solution. When the COD value of H2TaF7 solution is lower than 7 mg/L, the carbon content in K2TaF7 crystal would decrease to less than 0. 001 5%.
