Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recycling a valuable element from an aluminum-based petroleum refining waste catalyst. According to the method, carbon thermal reduction is adopted for pretreatingthe waste catalyst, three kinds of valuable metallic elements in the waste catalyst generate aluminum salt capable of being dissolved in water, metal element nickel and cobalt with magnetism and acidsolubility and metal carbide with acid resistance and alkali resistance, nature difference expansion of valuable element compounds achieves step-by-step extraction of the valuable elements, particularly, the water solution or alkali solution is used for extracting aluminium oxide, through magnetic selection or the acid solution, nickel and cobalt are extracted, and enrichment and recycling of rare metal carbide can be achieved. The method has the advantages that the process is simple and reasonable, the carbon reduction raw material is economic and environment-friendly, meanwhile, efficient separation and comprehensive recycling of valuable elements in the waste catalyst can be achieved, and the economic benefit is obvious.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for realizing high-efficiency and comprehensive recovery of valuable elements in spent petroleum catalysts by carbothermal reduction pretreatment, and belongs to the technical field of nonferrous metal metallurgy. Background technique [0002] Petrochemical industry is a catalyst-centered industrial sector, and about 90% of petroleum refining reactions need catalysts to proceed. During the use of the catalyst, the catalyst will be deactivated due to carbon deposition, heavy metal poisoning, and sintering of the active phase. When these deactivated catalysts cannot be economically regenerated, they become spent catalysts. Spent catalysts usually contain organic matter such as carbon deposits and residual oil, as well as sulfur, heavy metal elements nickel, cobalt, rare metal elements tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, and carrier alumina. Without harmless disposal, unstable toxic and harmful substances in spent catalysts...
