Benefits of technology

[0005]Thus purified aqueous alkali metal iodide salt solution is a useful raw material for purifying iodine. Therefore, it is demanded that an aqueous alkali metal iodide salt solution with high purity is produced from a mixture (e.g. a waste material) containing iodine or an iodine compound. However, in general, waste materials contain various undesired substances such as organometal compounds, metal, and organic compounds, other than a desired alkali metal iodide salt. In order to obtain an aqueous alkali metal iodide salt solution with high purity from such a mixture, a combustion method is effective through which organic components are removed from the mixture. With the combustion method, combustible contents can be removed as CO2 gas or N2 gas, etc. Moreover, the combustion method

Example

Example 1

[0065]First, a liquid composed of components shown in Table 1 below was prepared. Moreover, in Example 1 and Example 2, components of compounds shown in the tables are measured by the following methods.

(Sodium Iodide)

[0066]Sodium iodide was measured by a titration method in which an aqueous 0.1N AgNO3 solution is used as a reagent.

(Triphenylphosphine Oxide)

[0067]Column: TOSOH ODS-80TM 4.6×150 mm

[0068]Column temperature: 40° C.

[0069]Carrier:acetonitrile:water=4:6 (v:v) (TEA-AcOH 0.1 vol %)

[0070]Flow rate: 1.0 mL / min

[0071]Detection wavelength: 230 nm

[0072]Internal Control: dimethyl phthalate

(Methanol, Dimethylformamide, Isobutanol, and Water)

[0073]Column: chromosolve 102, 1.1 m

[0074]Column temperature: 70° C.→20° C. / min→200° C. (13 min)

[0075]Carrier: He (40 mL / min)

[0076]Detection: TCD (75 mA)

[0077]Internal Control: acetonitrile

Example

Example 2

[0080]A liquid, which is composed of components shown in Table 3 below, was prepared.

TABLE 3Sodium iodide (NaI)2.9 kgMethanol (MeOH)2.7 kgDimethylformamide (DMF)15.8 kg Isobutanol (i-BuOH)6.1 kgTriphenylphosphine oxide (TPPO)4.0 kgWater (H2O)3.5 kg

[0081]A reduced-pressure distillation was performed on the liquid to remove the solvent, under the condition of: 13 kPa; steam temperature in a range of 45° C. to 85° C. With this, MeOH 2.7 kg, DMF 11.7 kg, i-BuOH 6.1 kg, and H2O 2.3 kg were distilled off. Next, water of 80° C. was added by 26.2 kg as a deposition solvent. With this, TPPO was deposited and the deposited TPPO was filtered. Through the operation, a liquid for combustion was obtained. Table 4 below shows the composition of the liquid at the time.

Abstract

A method for producing an alkali metal iodide salt solution including combusting a liquid for combustion so as to combust a combustible component of the liquid for combustion; and subsequently cooling a resultant gas containing a decomposition product. The method comprises the steps of (a) providing a liquid containing (i) an alkali metal iodide salt, (ii) an inorganic-salt-forming substance capable of forming, at combustion, an inorganic salt containing an alkali metal and (iii) an organic compound; (b) adding to the liquid a precipitation solvent capable of depositing the inorganic-salt-forming substance; (c) removing from the liquid the inorganic-salt-forming substance precipitated in the step (b) so as to obtain the liquid for combustion; and (d) combusting the liquid for combustion and subsequently cooling the resultant gas containing a decomposition product. Accordingly, there can be achieved a method for producing a highly pure alkali metal iodide salt solution from a liquid containing an iodine compound.
