A method of recovering calcium and a rare earth metal from slag includes: a step (S100) for forming alkali silicate by performing alkali fusion on slag including silicon (Si), calcium (Ca), and a rare earth metal and reacting the silicon with an alkali metal salt; a step (S200) for removing the silicon and other impurities from the slag by leaching and separating the alkali silicate using distilled water; a step (S300) for leaching, into an acid solution, the calcium and the rare earth metal included in the slag from which the silicon and the other impurities are removed; and a step (S400) for recovering the calcium and the rare earth metal leached into the acid solution.

Disclosed are a hexafluorophosphate, phosphorus pentafluoride, a preparation method therefor and an application thereof. The preparation method for the hexafluorophosphate comprises the following steps: mixing a phosphoric acid solution of phosphorus pentoxide, sulfur trioxide and a fluoride in an inert gas atmosphere, sequentially performing evaporation concentration, dissolution, filtration and drying after the reaction, and obtaining the hexafluorophosphate. The method for preparing phosphorus pentafluoride from the hexafluorophosphate obtained by the preparation method provided by the present application comprises the following steps: mixing the hexafluorophosphate and a catalyst solution, carrying out catalytic reaction, and sequentially performing condensation, pressurized liquefaction and adsorption-based impurity removal, and obtaining phosphorus pentafluoride. The present application does not use phosphorus pentafluoride as a raw material to prepare the hexafluorophosphate, and does not use hydrogen fluoride as a raw material to produce phosphorus pentafluoride, thereby reducing risk related to production safety. Meanwhile, widely available chemical reagents of phosphorus pentoxide and sulfur trioxide are used as raw materials, thereby reducing the raw material cost and facilitating large-scale industrial production.
