Problems solved by technology

There are many problems in the treatment of such waste catalysts by traditional processes: high pyromelting temperature, serious loss of platinum group metals, and large dust pollution; there are two traditional wet treatment methods, one is to use inorganic acid to dissolve the carrier and never dissolve the slag Second, the recovery of platinum group metals in the medium, the second is to dissolve the platinum with aqua regia after roasting at 800-1000 °C; due to the large content of the carrier aluminum oxide, the viscosity of the system after acid-dissolving the carrier is high, the filtration is difficult, and the loss of platinum group metals is caused by entrainment, while 800 -1000℃ calcination carrier can not be completely crystallized, and the carrier dissolves in the process of dissolving platinum in aqua regia, which cannot achieve the effect of complete separation of carrier and platinum group metals, which will increase the subsequent separation and purification process of platinum group metals and reduce the yield.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for short-flow recovery of platinum group metal from waste catalysts. The method is determined on the basis of analyzing and researching states and contents of carriers and active components in the waste catalysts; in order to effectively separate the platinum group metal from the carriers, the method uses the characteristics of different acid dissolubility of aluminum trioxide with different crystal forms for controlling the roasting temperature to totally convert gamma-Al2O3 in the waste catalyst carriers to alpha-Al2O3 through two-step roasting, and uses dissolution of aqua regia for leaching out the platinum group metal; the leaching rate of aluminum oxide is lower than 0.2%; after leaching liquid is concentrated to catch acid, and the acidity is adjusted, hydrazine hydrate is used for selective reduction to obtain sponge platinum with a purity of higher than 99%; and the recovery rate of platinum is higher than 99%. The method saves a middle impurity removing link, effectively shortens the recovery flow of the platinum group metal in the waste catalysts, introduces no impurity metal in the whole process, and is high in purity of the sponge platinum and high in refining efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of precious metal secondary resource recovery, and in particular relates to a method for recovering platinum group metals from spent catalysts in a short process. Background technique [0002] In the petrochemical industry, platinum metal catalysts are required for about 80% of chemical reactions. With the rapid development of the global petrochemical industry, the amount of corresponding catalysts is increasing day by day. However, after a period of use of the active component platinum group metals, which play a catalytic role, the catalysis may be caused by surface carbon or catalyst pore blockage, poisoning, and oxidation of active components. Loss of activity and scrapped. However, the amount of platinum group metals in the spent catalyst remains unchanged, and the content is much higher than that in minerals. Therefore, the platinum group metals with high economic value need to be recycled. [0003] F...
