Disclosed is a method of recovering rare earth, aluminum and silicon from rare earth-containing aluminum-silicon scrap. The method comprises: S1, acid-leaching the rare earth-containing aluminum-silicon scrap with an inorganic acid aqueous solution to obtain a silicon-rich slag and acid leached solution containing rare earth and aluminum element; S2, adding an alkaline substance into the acid leached solution containing the rare earth and aluminum element and controlling a PH value of the acid leaching solution between 3.5 to 5.2, performing a solid-liquid separation to obtain a aluminum hydroxide-containing precipitate and a rare earth-containing solution filter; S3, reacting the aluminum hydroxide containing precipitate with sodium hydroxide to obtain sodium metaaluminate solution and aluminum-silicon slag, and preparing a rare earth compound product with the rare earth-containing filtrate. The method dissolves an the aluminum and the rare earth with the acid and then via step wise alkaline conversion, convert aluminum icons to an aluminum hydroxide precipitate separated from rare earth ions, and then adds excessive amounts of sodium hydroxide to convert the aluminum hydroxide to a sodium metaaluminate solution, thereby realizing high-efficiency recovery of both rare earth and aluminum while significantly reducing the consumption of the sodium hydroxide and thus recovery cost.

The present invention provides a cerium oxide based composite polishing powder and a preparation method thereof. The polishing powder contains the element magnesium in an amount of 0.005 wt %-5 wt % to magnesium oxide meter. The preparation method includes: (1) uniformly mixing a salt solution containing cerium serving as the main component of the polishing powder; (2) uniformly mixing a precipitating agent of an aqueous magnesium bicarbonate solution with the mixed solution prepared in step (1) to obtain a slurry; (3) aging the slurry prepared in step (2) for 0-48 h while the temperature of the slurry is kept at 30-90 degrees centigrade, and filtering the aged slurry to obtain the precursor powder of the polishing powder; (4) calcinating the precursor powder at 600-1000 degrees centigrade, then dispersing and separating the calcinated precursor powder to obtain the polishing powder. The present invention improves the polishing performance and the suspension performance of polishing powder.

The present invention relates to a method of precipitation of metal ions. Mineral(s), oxide(s), hydroxide(s) of magnesium and/or calcium are adopted as raw materials, and the raw material(s) is processed through at least one step of calcination, slaking, or carbonization to produce aqueous solution(s) of magnesium bicarbonate and/or calcium bicarbonate, and then the solution(s) is used as precipitant(s) to deposit rare earth, such as nickel, cobalt, iron, aluminum, gallium, indium, manganese, cadmium, zirconium, hafnium, strontium, barium, copper and zinc ions. And at least one of metal carbonates, hydroxides or basic carbonates is obtained, or furthermore the obtained products are calcined to produce metal oxides. The invention takes the cheap calcium and/or magnesium minerals or their oxides, hydroxides with low purity as raw materials to instead common precipitants such as ammonium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate etc. The calcium, magnesium, carbon dioxide etc are efficiently and circularly used, and the environment pollution by ammonium-nitrogen wastewater, high concentration salts wastewater is avoided, and both of the discharge of greenhouse gas carbon dioxide and the production cost of metal are decreased.
