Problems solved by technology

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the high smelting temperature, long smelting time, and the presence of platinum group metals in the slag in the recovery of platinum group metals in raw materials (such as spent catalysts) in the existing pyrotechnics and wet processes. The shortcomings of high content, etc., provide a method of microwave heating and melting to capture platinum group metals in spent catalysts, which has good affinity with platinum group metals, low smelting temperature and high recovery rate. The invention has low energy consumption and high recovery rate of platinum group metals. High, greatly improving production efficiency

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for collecting platinum group metal through microwave heating fusion. The method comprises the following steps that firstly, the temperature of a mixture containing aplatinum group metal raw material, a collector and additives is raised to 1,050 DEG C-1,200 DEG C under microwaves, the mixture is fused, and after fusing is completed, slag-liquid separation is carried out, and a slag phase and metal matte are obtained; wherein the collector comprises Ni3S2, and the additives are at least one of borax, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium hydroxide, sodium peroxide and methylcellulose; and secondly, the metal matte is cooled and subjected to acid leaching treatment, and pickle liquor and platinum-containing leaching slag are obtained. According to themethod, efficient recovering of the platinum group metal in a waste catalyst containing the platinum group metal can be achieved at the relatively low fusing temperature, the content of the platinumgroup metal in the slag can be reduced through slag flotation, the collector is recovered in lixivium, and resources are saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for collecting platinum group metals in waste catalysts by microwave heating and melting, and belongs to the technical field of precious metal recovery. Background technique [0002] my country's platinum group metal mineral resources are very poor, and the prospective reserves are less than 350 tons. my country's annual output of platinum group metal mineral resources from platinum group metal mineral resources is only about 3 tons. At present, my country is in a period of rapid economic development, and the consumption of platinum group metals is increasing year by year. It has become the largest consumer of platinum group metals in the world. The annual demand for platinum group metals in my country has reached more than 150 tons. Relying on mineral resources is far from meeting the needs of industrial development. The contradiction between supply and demand is very prominent. my country's automobile, petrochemical,...
