Description
本発明は、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液中の重金属分を効果的に除去することができる高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製造方法に関する。更に詳しくは、本発明は、官能基としてＮ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂を用いて、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液中の重金属分を効果的に除去することができる高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution capable of effectively removing heavy metal components in a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution. More specifically, the present invention relates to a high-purity alkali metal carbonate that can effectively remove heavy metal components in a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution by using a chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group as a functional group. The present invention relates to a method for producing an aqueous solution.
半導体ウェーハやカラーフィルター等の電子部品の製造においては、ウェーハ表面のエッチングによる平面化、レジスト材の現像と除去、あるいは表面の洗浄等を目的として水酸化アルカリとアルカリ金属炭酸塩の水溶液が使用されている。これらの電子部品の製造に使用されるアルカリ金属炭酸塩は、半導体ウェーハの劣化、半導体デバイスの特性の低下等を防ぐため、鉄や銅等の金属不純物を含まない高純度のアルカリ金属炭酸塩であることが要求されている。また、これらの用途では、使用中にアルカリ金属炭酸塩が適宜追加されるが、追加時に希薄溶液を用いると全体の水分が多くなり組成が大きく変化してしまうため、通常、濃厚溶液が追加される。また、この他、医療用や化粧品等においても、金属不純物等を含まない高純度の薬剤の要求が高まっている。 In the manufacture of electronic components such as semiconductor wafers and color filters, aqueous solutions of alkali hydroxides and alkali metal carbonates are used for the purpose of planarizing the wafer surface by etching, developing and removing the resist material, or cleaning the surface. ing. Alkali metal carbonates used in the manufacture of these electronic components are high-purity alkali metal carbonates that do not contain metal impurities such as iron and copper in order to prevent deterioration of semiconductor wafers and degradation of semiconductor device characteristics. It is required to be. In these applications, alkali metal carbonate is added as needed during use, but if a dilute solution is used at the time of addition, the total moisture will increase and the composition will change greatly, so a concentrated solution is usually added. The In addition, for medical use and cosmetics, there is an increasing demand for high-purity drugs that do not contain metal impurities.
高純度のアルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製法としては、例えば、イオン交換膜により水酸化アルカリを精製した後、二酸化炭素と反応させる方法が知られている。この際に使用する高純度水酸化アルカリの製造方法としては、陽イオン交換膜により陽極室と陰極室とに区画された電解槽を用いて不純物濃度の低いアルカリ溶液を生成させる方法が知られている（例えば、特許文献１参照。）。この他、高純度水酸化アルカリの製造方法としては、活性炭により水酸化カリウム中のニッケルを除去する方法（例えば、特許文献２参照。）、活性炭により水酸化ナトリウム中の鉄やニッケルを除去する方法（例えば、特許文献３参照。）、オキシン基等の特定の構造を有するキレート性官能基を有する樹脂により、水酸化アルカリ中の鉄、クロム、ニッケルを除去する方法（例えば、特許文献４参照。）、イオン交換樹脂、キレート樹脂及び活性炭を組み合わせて使用し、重金属を除去する方法（例えば、特許文献５参照。）が開示されている。 As a method for producing a high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution, for example, a method in which an alkali hydroxide is purified by an ion exchange membrane and then reacted with carbon dioxide is known. As a method for producing high-purity alkali hydroxide used at this time, a method of producing an alkaline solution having a low impurity concentration using an electrolytic cell partitioned into an anode chamber and a cathode chamber by a cation exchange membrane is known. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1). In addition, as a method for producing high-purity alkali hydroxide, a method of removing nickel in potassium hydroxide with activated carbon (see, for example, Patent Document 2), a method of removing iron or nickel in sodium hydroxide with activated carbon. (For example, refer to Patent Document 3), a method of removing iron, chromium and nickel in an alkali hydroxide with a resin having a chelating functional group having a specific structure such as an oxine group (for example, refer to Patent Document 4). ), A method for removing heavy metals by using a combination of an ion exchange resin, a chelate resin and activated carbon (see, for example, Patent Document 5).
しかし、特許文献１に記載された方法では、精製精度は十分に高いものの設備化に比較的手間がかかり、何処でも簡単に高純度に精製された水酸化アルカリが得られない状況である。また、特許文献２〜４の方法では、比較的簡単な設備で対応でき、高度な精製が可能であるが、除去することができる金属種が限られており、更に、設備等から水溶液に一部溶出する金属種もあり、この溶出を防ぐための前処理に労力がかかる場合もある。また、特許文献５のように、イオン交換樹脂、キレート樹脂及び活性炭を組み合わせても、重金属、特に鉄やアルミニウムの除去は不十分である。このように、高純度水酸化アルカリを容易に得ることができず、従って、高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製造も容易ではなかった。 However, in the method described in Patent Document 1, although the purification accuracy is sufficiently high, it takes a relatively large amount of time for installation, and it is not possible to obtain an alkali hydroxide that is easily purified to high purity anywhere. In addition, the methods of Patent Documents 2 to 4 can be handled with relatively simple equipment and can be highly purified. However, the metal species that can be removed are limited, and further, the equipment can be used as an aqueous solution. Some metal species elute, and pre-treatment to prevent this elution may take effort. Moreover, even if it combines an ion exchange resin, a chelate resin, and activated carbon like patent document 5, removal of a heavy metal, especially iron and aluminum is inadequate. As described above, high-purity alkali hydroxide cannot be easily obtained. Therefore, it is not easy to produce a high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution.
本発明は、上記の従来の状況に鑑みてなされたものであり、アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液を高濃度の状態のままで、この中に含有される重金属分を除去し、精製することができる高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製造方法を提供することを課題とする。 The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional situation, and it is possible to remove and purify a heavy metal component contained in an alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution in a high concentration state. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for producing a pure alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution.

本発明の高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製造方法によれば、官能基としてＮ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂を用いて粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液中の重金属を除去するものであるため、重金属を含む粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液から効率よく重金属を捕捉し、除去することができ、重金属が、鉄、銅、アルミニウム、チタン及びコバルトのうちの少なくとも１種である場合、これらをより効率よく除去することができる。これらの重金属は、特に、半導体ウェーハの劣化、半導体デバイスの特性の低下等をもたらすため、除去する効果が大きい。
粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液に含まれるアルカリ金属炭酸塩の濃度が、１５〜６０質量％であれば、高濃度であるため、例えば、研磨剤等に添加することにより、研磨剤等の濃度の低下を抑制しつつ、その作用効果を維持することができる。

According to the method for producing a high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution of the present invention, a heavy metal in a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution is removed using a chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group as a functional group. Heavy metals can be efficiently captured and removed from a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution containing heavy metals, and when the heavy metals are at least one of iron, copper, aluminum, titanium, and cobalt, these are more efficiently Can be removed. These heavy metals are particularly effective for removal because they cause deterioration of semiconductor wafers, deterioration of characteristics of semiconductor devices, and the like.
If the concentration of the alkali metal carbonate contained in the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution is 15 to 60% by mass, the concentration is high. For example, by adding to the abrasive, the concentration of the abrasive or the like is reduced. The effect can be maintained while suppressing the above.
If the heavy metal contained in the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution is 5000 ng / g or less, the heavy metal can be efficiently removed, and a higher purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution can be produced.
If it is the manufacturing method of the highly purified alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution of this invention, a heavy metal can be reduced to 500 ng / g or less, and an extremely high purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution can be manufactured.
When the total amount of the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution is 100% by mass, if the chelate resin is 0.1 to 20% by mass, a high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution can be efficiently produced.
本発明の高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製造方法は、官能基としてＮ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂（以下、「キレート樹脂」ともいう。）を用いて、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液中の重金属を除去することを特徴とする。 The method for producing a high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution of the present invention uses a chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group as a functional group (hereinafter also referred to as “chelate resin”) in a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution. The heavy metal is removed.
［１］Ｎ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂
前記「Ｎ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂」は、金属イオンに対する選択性がイオン交換樹脂よりもはるかに大きく、更に、キレート樹脂が有する官能基であるＮ−メチルグルカミン基により重金属が捕捉されて強固なキレートが形成されるため、重金属が再度溶出することがなく、効率的に重金属を除去することが可能である。そのため、重金属を数ｎｇ／ｇ以下にまで除去することができる。
[1] Chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group The “chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group” has a much higher selectivity for metal ions than an ion exchange resin, and further has a functional property of the chelate resin. Since the heavy metal is captured by the N-methylglucamine group as a group and a strong chelate is formed, the heavy metal can be efficiently removed without being eluted again. Therefore, heavy metals can be removed to several ng / g or less.
Ｎ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂としては、ポリスチレン、ポリスチレン−ジビニルベンゼン共重合体及びフェノール樹脂等に、Ｎ−メチルグルカミン基が結合した樹脂が挙げられる。例えば、ポリスチレン−ジビニルベンゼン共重合体にＮ−メチルグルカミン基が結合したものとして、ダイヤイオンＣＲＢ−０５（商品名、三菱化学社製）、アンバーライトＩＲＡ７４３（商品名、Ｒｏｈｍ&Ｈａａｓ社製）やユニセレックＵＲ−３５００Ｓ（商品名、ユニチカ社製）等を例示することができる。 Examples of the chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group include a resin in which an N-methylglucamine group is bonded to polystyrene, a polystyrene-divinylbenzene copolymer, a phenol resin, or the like. For example, as a combination of polystyrene-divinylbenzene copolymer with N-methylglucamine group, Diaion CRB-05 (trade name, manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical), Amberlite IRA743 (trade name, manufactured by Rohm & Haas) Examples thereof include UR-3500S (trade name, manufactured by Unitika).
重金属の除去をバッチ式で行う場合は、Ｎ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂の添加量は、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液全体を１００質量％とした場合に、０．１〜２０質量％であることが好ましく、０．３〜１０質量％であることがより好ましく、１〜１０質量％であることが更に好ましい。０．１質量％未満では、十分な重金属除去の効果が得られず、２０質量％を超えて添加しても、重金属除去の効果はそれ以上大きく向上することはない。但し、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液中の重金属濃度により適宜調整することが好ましい。 When removing heavy metals in a batch system, the amount of chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group is 0.1 to 20% by mass when the total amount of the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution is 100% by mass. Preferably, it is 0.3 to 10 mass%, more preferably 1 to 10 mass%. If the amount is less than 0.1% by mass, a sufficient effect of removing heavy metals cannot be obtained. Even if the amount exceeds 20% by mass, the effect of removing heavy metals is not greatly improved. However, it is preferable to adjust appropriately according to the heavy metal concentration in the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution.
重金属の除去を連続式で行う場合は、容器中の溶液を入れ替えることなく作業することができるため、バッチ式より作業効率が高く好ましい。連続式で行う場合、例えば、充填塔を用いて重金属を除去させるときは、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の単位時間当たりの流量である空塔速度（以下、「ＳＶ」と略記する。）で表示すると、ＳＶ＝０．１〜５［１／時間］、好ましくはＳＶ＝０．２〜３［１／時間］、より好ましくはＳＶ＝０．３〜２［１／時間］でキレート樹脂に接触させることによって、より効率よく重金属を除去することができる。また、充填塔が破過に達する前に充填したキレート樹脂を入れ替えることにより、連続して重金属を除去する時間を延ばすことができる。入れ替えるキレート樹脂の量は入れ替え前に処理した粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液を１００質量％とした場合に、０．１〜２０質量％であることが好ましく、０．３〜１０質量％であることがより好ましく、０．３〜１質量％であることが更に好ましい。キレート樹脂は繰り返し使用し、除去効果に応じて一括入れ替え、若しくは逐次入れ替えをすればよく、更には後述の再生により重金属が除去された状態に回復させ、維持させることができる。 When removing heavy metals in a continuous manner, it is possible to work without replacing the solution in the container, which is preferable because the working efficiency is higher than the batch manner. In the case of continuous operation, for example, when heavy metal is removed using a packed tower, it is indicated by a superficial velocity (hereinafter abbreviated as “SV”) which is a flow rate per unit time of the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution. Then, SV = 0.1-5 [1 / hour], preferably SV = 0.2-3 [1 / hour], more preferably SV = 0.3-2 [1 / hour], and contact with the chelate resin By doing so, heavy metals can be more efficiently removed. Moreover, the time for removing heavy metals continuously can be extended by replacing the chelate resin packed before the packed tower reaches breakthrough. The amount of the chelate resin to be replaced is preferably 0.1 to 20% by mass, and preferably 0.3 to 10% by mass, when the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution treated before replacement is 100% by mass. More preferably, it is still more preferably 0.3-1 mass%. The chelate resin may be used repeatedly, and may be replaced in a batch or sequentially in accordance with the removal effect. Further, the chelate resin can be recovered and maintained in a state in which heavy metals have been removed by regeneration described later.
重金属類が吸着したキレート樹脂は、超純水等による洗浄や逆洗浄操作などの後、更には塩酸や硝酸等の酸で処理した後、水で洗浄する等の、公知の脱重金属操作による再生方法を適用し、再生させることができる。そして、このようにして再生したキレート樹脂は、本発明の高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製造に再使用することができる。 The chelate resin with heavy metals adsorbed is regenerated by known demetalized metal operations such as washing with ultrapure water, backwashing, etc., and further treating with acid such as hydrochloric acid or nitric acid and then washing with water. The method can be applied and replayed. The chelate resin regenerated in this way can be reused in the production of the high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution of the present invention.

粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液に含まれるアルカリ金属炭酸塩の濃度は、どのような濃度でも重金属低減効果が望めるが、例えば、研磨剤等に添加して使用する場合、研磨剤等の濃度が低下しないように、高濃度であることが好ましい。また、輸送効率、保管効率や、その後の取り扱いで濃縮する等の余計な操作を必要としないよう、高濃度であることが好ましい。 The concentration of alkali metal carbonate contained in the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution can be expected to reduce heavy metals at any concentration. For example, when used by adding to an abrasive, the concentration of the abrasive does not decrease. Thus, a high concentration is preferable. Moreover, it is preferable that it is high concentration so that extra operations, such as transport efficiency, storage efficiency, and concentration by subsequent handling, are not required.
粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液中のアルカリ金属炭酸塩の濃度は、炭酸カリウムであれば、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液全体を１００質量％とした場合に、炭酸カリウム２０〜６０質量％であることが好ましい。２０質量％未満では、研磨剤等として使用したときに十分な作用効果が得られず、６０質量％を超えると、常温（２０〜３０℃）では溶解度を超え、析出するおそれがあるからである。この濃度は２５〜５７質量％であることが更に好ましく、３０〜５４質量％であることが特に好ましく、４０〜５０質量％であることが最も好ましい。 If the density | concentration of the alkali metal carbonate in crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution is potassium carbonate, when the whole crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution shall be 100 mass%, it is preferable that it is 20-60 mass% of potassium carbonate. . If it is less than 20% by mass, a sufficient effect cannot be obtained when used as an abrasive or the like, and if it exceeds 60% by mass, it exceeds the solubility at room temperature (20 to 30 ° C.) and may precipitate. . This concentration is more preferably 25 to 57% by mass, particularly preferably 30 to 54% by mass, and most preferably 40 to 50% by mass.
炭酸水素カリウム及び炭酸ナトリウムであれば、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液全体を１００質量％とした場合に、炭酸水素カリウム及び炭酸ナトリウム１５〜２５質量％であることが好ましい。１５質量％未満では、研磨剤等として使用したときに十分な作用効果が得られず、２５質量％を超えると、常温では溶解度を超え、析出するおそれがあるからである。この濃度は１８〜２２質量％であることが更に好ましい。 If it is potassium hydrogen carbonate and sodium carbonate, when the whole crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution shall be 100 mass%, it is preferable that they are 15-25 mass% of potassium hydrogen carbonate and sodium carbonate. If it is less than 15% by mass, sufficient effects cannot be obtained when it is used as an abrasive or the like, and if it exceeds 25% by mass, the solubility at room temperature may be exceeded and precipitation may occur. This concentration is more preferably 18 to 22% by mass.
炭酸水素ナトリウムであれば、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液全体を１００質量％とした場合に、炭酸水素ナトリウム５〜１０質量％であることが好ましい。１０質量％を超えると、溶解度を超え、析出するおそれがあるからである。この濃度は８〜１０質量％であることが更に好ましい。 If it is sodium hydrogen carbonate, when the whole crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution shall be 100 mass%, it is preferable that it is 5-10 mass% of sodium hydrogen carbonate. This is because if it exceeds 10% by mass, the solubility may be exceeded and precipitation may occur. This concentration is more preferably 8 to 10% by mass.
［３］重金属
前記「重金属」とは、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液に含まれる不純物としての重金属である。

[3] Heavy Metal The “heavy metal” is a heavy metal as an impurity contained in a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution.
Examples of heavy metals as impurities contained in the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution include iron, copper, aluminum, titanium, cobalt, alkaline earth metals (calcium, magnesium, strontium and barium), nickel, zinc, lead, cadmium, Manganese, vanadium, molybdenum, chromium, zirconium, silver, tin, mercury, antimony, bismuth, gallium, thallium and the like can be mentioned, and it is desirable to reduce these as much as possible.
更には、特定の重金属においては少量の含有でも製品の品質に対して影響が大きい。この特定の重金属とは、鉄、銅、アルミニウム、チタン、コバルトであり、これらは、より低レベルまで低減できることが好ましい。特に、半導体ウェーハやカラーフィルター等の電子部品の製造においては、半導体ウェーハの劣化、半導体デバイスの特性の低下等を防ぐため、これらの特定の重金属の含有量が極力少ない高純度の水溶液であることが要求されている。 Furthermore, even if a specific heavy metal is contained in a small amount, the quality of the product is greatly affected.

粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液に混入していても差し支えない重金属の濃度は、除去操作後の高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液に残存する重金属の濃度により異なる。例えば、重金属除去後の濃度が３０ｎｇ／ｇ以下である場合、除去前に混入していても差し支えない濃度として、各金属とも５０００ｎｇ／ｇ以下であることが好ましく、１０００ｎｇ／ｇ以下であることがより好ましく、５００ｎｇ／ｇ以下であることが特に好ましい。
[4] Removal The “removal” refers to a process of removing heavy metals from a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution to obtain a high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution. This removal means not only the case where the contained heavy metal is substantially completely removed but also the case where it is removed incompletely.
The concentration of heavy metal that may be mixed in the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution varies depending on the concentration of heavy metal remaining in the high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution after the removal operation. For example, when the concentration after heavy metal removal is 30 ng / g or less, it is preferable that each metal is 5000 ng / g or less, and 1000 ng / g or less as a concentration that may be mixed before removal. More preferably, it is particularly preferably 500 ng / g or less.
本発明の高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液の製造方法において、重金属を除去するときの操作温度は０℃から６０℃程度であればよく、この温度範囲であれば、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液中の重金属を効率よく除去することができるので好ましい。０℃未満では、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液中のアルカリ金属炭酸塩の溶解度が減少し、析出しやすくなり、キレート樹脂に析出物が詰まりやすく、重金属の除去効率の低下を招く。一方、６０℃を超えると、加熱を継続する必要があり、経済的な面で不利である。好ましい操作温度は５℃から５０℃であり、より好ましくは１０℃から４５℃である。 In the method for producing a high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution of the present invention, the operating temperature when removing heavy metals may be about 0 ° C. to 60 ° C., and if within this temperature range, the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution It is preferable because heavy metals can be efficiently removed. If it is less than 0 ° C., the solubility of the alkali metal carbonate in the aqueous solution of the crude alkali metal carbonate is reduced, and it is likely to precipitate, the precipitate is likely to be clogged with the chelate resin, and the heavy metal removal efficiency is reduced. On the other hand, if it exceeds 60 ° C., it is necessary to continue heating, which is disadvantageous in terms of economy. The preferred operating temperature is 5 ° C to 50 ° C, more preferably 10 ° C to 45 ° C.
除去操作は、より具体的には、例えば、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液をカラムに詰めたキレート樹脂と、０℃から６０℃の間の温度で、連続的に接触させて重金属を除去し、高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液を製造することができる。また、粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液とキレート樹脂とをバッチ式で０℃から６０℃の間の温度で、例えば、２時間、接触させて重金属を除去し、高純度アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液を製造することもできる。 More specifically, for example, the removal operation is performed by continuously contacting a chelate resin packed in a column with a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution at a temperature between 0 ° C. and 60 ° C. to remove heavy metals. A pure alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution can be produced. Moreover, a crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution and a chelate resin are brought into contact with each other at a temperature between 0 ° C. and 60 ° C. in a batch manner, for example, for 2 hours to remove heavy metals to produce a high purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution.

In addition, the minimum amount of each heavy metal contained in the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution is larger than the content of each heavy metal in the high-purity alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution. That is, many heavy metals exceeding the lower limit are eluted and are not contained by the heavy metal removal operation.

表２によれば、実施例２（Ｎ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂使用）は、比較例２〜７（他のキレート樹脂又はイオン交換樹脂使用）に比べ、いずれの重金属に対しても重金属除去の効果が大きいことが分かった。また、実施例１と比べ、本発明におけるキレート樹脂６．４ｇを使用することにより、重金属除去の効果が高まったと考えられる。 According to Table 2, Example 2 (using a chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group) is used for any heavy metal compared to Comparative Examples 2 to 7 (using other chelate resins or ion exchange resins). It was found that the effect of removing heavy metals was great. Moreover, compared with Example 1, it is thought that the effect of heavy metal removal increased by using 6.4g of chelate resin in this invention.

以上の結果を表３に示す。
[Example 3]
The test was carried out using a 20% by mass aqueous sodium carbonate solution instead of the 40% by mass aqueous potassium carbonate solution of Example 2. The heavy metal components of the stock solution are as shown in Table 3. The other conditions were tested in the same manner as in Example 2.
[Comparative Example 8]
Instead of the chelate resin of Example 3, a chelate resin (trade name; Diaion CR-11, manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) having iminodiacetic acid Na as a functional group was used. All other conditions were tested in the same manner as in Example 3.
The results are shown in Table 3.
表３によれば、実施例３（Ｎ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂使用）は、比較例８（イミノジ酢酸Ｎａを有するキレート樹脂使用）に比べ、いずれの重金属についても重金属除去の効果が大きいことが分かった。実施例１、２の４０質量％炭酸カリウム水溶液に替えて、２０質量％炭酸ナトリウム水溶液を使用しても、使用するキレート樹脂の量が６．４ｇであれば、同様の効果が得られることが分かった。 According to Table 3, Example 3 (using a chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group) has an effect of removing heavy metals with respect to any heavy metal as compared with Comparative Example 8 (using a chelate resin having iminodiacetic acid Na). I found it big. Even if a 20% by mass sodium carbonate aqueous solution is used instead of the 40% by mass potassium carbonate aqueous solution in Examples 1 and 2, the same effect can be obtained if the amount of the chelate resin used is 6.4 g. I understood.
［実施例４］
実施例２の４０質量％炭酸カリウム水溶液に替えて、９質量％炭酸水素ナトリウム水溶液を使用して試験を行った。原液の重金属成分は表４に示す通りである。他の条件は実施例２と同様にして試験を行った。
［比較例９］
実施例４のキレート樹脂に替えて、官能基としてイミノジ酢酸Ｎａを有するキレート樹脂（商品名；ダイヤイオンＣＲ−１１、三菱化学社製）を使用した。他の条件はすべて実施例４と同様にして試験を行った。
以上の結果を表４に示す。
[Example 4]
The test was carried out using a 9% by mass aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution instead of the 40% by mass aqueous potassium carbonate solution of Example 2. The heavy metal components of the stock solution are as shown in Table 4. The other conditions were tested in the same manner as in Example 2.
[Comparative Example 9]
Instead of the chelate resin of Example 4, a chelate resin (trade name; Diaion CR-11, manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) having iminodiacetic acid Na as a functional group was used. All other conditions were tested in the same manner as in Example 4.
The results are shown in Table 4.
表４によれば、実施例４（Ｎ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂使用）は、比較例９（イミノジ酢酸Ｎａを有するキレート樹脂使用）に比べ、鉄とアルミニウムについては、劣っているが、銅、チタン、コバルトについては、除去の効果が大きいことが分かった。実施例１〜３のようにすべての金属について除去効果が得られていないのは、アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液として炭酸水素ナトリウム水溶液を使用したこと、及びその濃度が９質量％とやや低濃度であったことに起因していると考えられる。 According to Table 4, Example 4 (using a chelate resin having an N-methylglucamine group) is inferior in iron and aluminum compared to Comparative Example 9 (using a chelate resin having iminodiacetic acid Na). About copper, titanium, and cobalt, it turned out that the removal effect is large. The reason why the removal effect was not obtained for all metals as in Examples 1 to 3 was that an aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution was used as the aqueous alkali metal carbonate solution and that its concentration was slightly low at 9% by mass. This is considered to be caused by this.
［実施例５〜７］
表５に原液として示す重金属を含有する、４０質量％炭酸カリウム水溶液１００ｇに、官能基としてＮ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂（商品名；ダイヤイオンＣＲＢ−０５、三菱化学社製）を、種々の添加量として、試験を行った。
以上の結果を表５に示す。
[Examples 5 to 7]
A chelate resin (trade name; Diaion CRB-05, manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) having an N-methylglucamine group as a functional group in 100 g of a 40% by mass potassium carbonate aqueous solution containing heavy metals shown in Table 5 as a stock solution, The test was conducted as various addition amounts.
The results are shown in Table 5.
表５によれば、実施例５のように、キレート樹脂０．１ｇを添加した場合は、鉄、銅いずれについても、２５％の重金属の除去ができた。また、実施例６のように、キレート樹脂０．６ｇを添加した場合、除去の割合は飛躍的に向上し、鉄については約８６％、銅については約８３％の除去ができた。更に、実施例７のように、キレート樹脂４．０ｇを添加した場合には、鉄、銅共に約９６％除去することができた。 According to Table 5, when 0.1 g of chelate resin was added as in Example 5, 25% of heavy metals could be removed from both iron and copper. Further, when 0.6 g of the chelate resin was added as in Example 6, the removal rate was dramatically improved, and about 86% of iron and about 83% of copper could be removed. Furthermore, as in Example 7, when 4.0 g of chelate resin was added, about 96% of both iron and copper could be removed.
［実施例８〜９］
１０８０ｎｇ／ｇの鉄を含有する、４０質量％炭酸カリウム水溶液（粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液）１００ｇに、官能基としてＮ−メチルグルカミン基を有するキレート樹脂（商品名；ダイヤイオンＣＲＢ−０５、三菱化学社製））１０ｇ（実施例８）又は２０ｇ（実施例９）を加え、室温で攪拌して２時間接触させた。その後、これらの溶液を採取し、鉄含有分の分析（下記の分析方法）を行い、キレート樹脂未接触の原液と比較して除去率を求めた。その結果、実施例８、９のいずれの場合も除去率は９９％を超えていた。このように粗アルカリ金属炭酸塩水溶液に高濃度に含まれる鉄を極めて効率よく除去できることが分かった。
[Examples 8 to 9]
Chelate resin (trade name: Diaion CRB-05, Mitsubishi) having N-methylglucamine group as a functional group in 100 g of 40 mass% potassium carbonate aqueous solution (crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution) containing 1080 ng / g of iron 10 g (Example 8) or 20 g (Example 9)) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. Thereafter, these solutions were collected, analyzed for iron content (the following analysis method), and the removal rate was determined in comparison with a stock solution not in contact with the chelate resin. As a result, in both cases of Examples 8 and 9, the removal rate exceeded 99%. Thus, it was found that iron contained in a high concentration in the crude alkali metal carbonate aqueous solution can be removed extremely efficiently.
（鉄イオンの分析方法）
採取した試料に超純水を加えた後、塩酸酸性とした。そして１０質量％塩酸ヒドロキシルアンモニウム水溶液を加え、数分間煮沸させた後、希アンモニア水にてｐＨを３〜５に調整し、０．３質量％オルトフェナントロリン塩酸塩溶液を加えた。次いで、２０質量％酢酸アンモニウム緩衝液と蒸留水とでメスアップし、室温で１０分間放置して発色させ、吸光光度計にて吸光度を求めた。また、別途、採取試料を用いないで同様の操作を行い、ブランクの吸光度を求めた。更に、別途作成した検量線を用いて鉄濃度を求めた。

And after adding 10 mass% hydroxylammonium hydrochloride aqueous solution and making it boil for several minutes, pH was adjusted to 3-5 with dilute ammonia water, and 0.3 mass% orthophenanthroline hydrochloride solution was added. Subsequently, it was made up with 20% by mass ammonium acetate buffer and distilled water, allowed to stand at room temperature for 10 minutes for color development, and the absorbance was determined with an absorptiometer. Separately, the same operation was performed without using the collected sample, and the absorbance of the blank was determined. Further, the iron concentration was determined using a separately prepared calibration curve.
