The invention relates to the technical field of environmental protection, in particular to a method for recycling waste refractory materials. The method comprises the following technological processes: classifying and selecting the waste refractory materials; on a basis of the total weight of reclaimed materials, preparing a material with the following ingredients at a ratio: 85%-90% of Al2O3, 0.5%-3.5% of SiO2, 1.5%-4.5% of MgO, 0.5%-1.5% of ZrO2 and the balance of impurities, crushing the material, removing iron by magnetic separation, performing size grading, heating and drying, feeding inthe material for mixing, firing the material at high temperature for forming, and cooling, so as to obtain a regenerated high-alumina brick. According to the method, the regenerated high-alumina brickis generated by adopting the waste refractory materials, so that the process is simple, the waste of the waste refractory materials can be reduced, the recycling of the waste refractory materials andthe increase of the added value are facilitated; the regenerated high-alumina brick produced by taking the waste refractory materials as raw materials is good in thermal shock resistance and pressureendurance and has considerable economic benefits.
