Bauxite residue (BR) is an inevitable industrial waste generated through the classic Bayer extraction of alumina from bauxite minerals. It contains relatively significant amount of valuable rare earth elements, including scandium, and therefore, we explored the suitability of trace scandium recovery from BR acid leachate by titanium phosphate (TiP) ion exchangers. Three kinds of TiP materials (amorphous TiP, α-TiP, and γ-TiP) were synthesized through fluorine-free precursors and characterized by chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), ultraviolet/visible (UV/vis) diffuse reflectance spectrometry, 31P magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and potentiometric titration. The Sc3+ exchange capacities were determined as 1.74, 0.55, and 0.22 mequiv g–1 for amorphous, α-, and γ-TiP, respectively. Competition of major elements (Fe, Al, Ca) in BR leachate with Sc upta...
