Abstract

The invention discloses a method for efficiently and cleanly recovering platinum group metals from a spent automobile catalyst, which comprises the following steps: (1) smelting and collection: mixing the spent automobile exhaust catalyst with a collector, a reducer and a slag former, and carrying out high-temperature smelting to obtain a collected metal-platinum group metal alloy; (2) alloy phase oxidation and converting: blowing oxidizing gas into the collected metal-platinum group metal alloy to perform converting; (3) high-grade platinum group metal enrichment dissolution and separation: carrying out oxidizing solvent dissolution and ion-exchange separation to obtain a platinum group metal solution, adding alkali into the exchange raffinate to neutralize and precipitate, and returning the precipitate as the collector for the smelting step; and (4) platinum group metal refinement: refining and purifying the platinum group metal solution to obtain the platinum group metal product. The method efficiently recovers the platinum group metals; the recovery rate of the platinum group metals is greater than 99%, and the platinum+palladium+rhodium content in the smelting slag is less than 10g/t; and the collector can be recycled, so that the method is clean and pollution-free and can easily implement industrialization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for efficiently and cleanly recovering platinum group metals from exhausted automobile catalysts, in particular to a method for effectively enriching platinum group metals from exhausted automobile exhaust catalysts or secondary materials of various refractory platinum group metals. Background technique [0002] my country's platinum group metal mineral resources are very poor, and the prospective reserves are less than 350 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 world's largest consumer of platinum group metals. In 2012, my country's annual demand for platinum group metals reached about 140 tons, accounting for about 20% of the world's total. According to statistics, my country's automobile production in 2011 was 18 million. With the failure of catalysts and the scrapping of automobiles, the sp...
