The invention provides an ammonia recycling method and a system in APT production process. The ammonia recycling method comprises following steps: 1, APT crystallization steam is discharged using a centrifugation blower fan, is introduced into a rectifying tower for rectification and condensation of ammonia tail gas to remove most water, and is introduced into a heat exchanger; 2, a three stage solution obtained via ion exchange is directly used for preparing a desorption agent, the rest ammonia nitrogen wastewater is pumped into a stirring tank, an alkali is added for ammonia activation, andgenerated ammonia tail gas is introduced into the heat exchanger; wastewater obtained via ammonia activation is pumped into an air stripping tower, and ammonia tail gas obtained via air stripping is introduced into the heat exchanger; when the ammonia-nitrogen value of obtained air stripping wastewater is detected to be qualified, discharging through a branch pipe is carried out, otherwise, the wastewater is pumped into the air stripping tower for air stripping; and 3, the temperature of the ammonia tail gas is reduced to be lower than 45 DEG C after treatment using the heat exchanger, the ammonia tail gas is introduced into a hydrochloric acid absorbing tower for circulating absorption, and an obtained solution is sent back to the main treatment stream directly for preparation of the desorption agent. The ammonia recycling method and the system are used for comprehensive treatment of ammonia nitrogen wastewater waste gas obtained in tungsten smelting, waste is changed into valuables,the method flow is simple, operation is convenient, the method is easy to control, and cost is low.
