Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of platinum metal recovery and refining, in particular to a method for recovering and refining platinum from waste automobile platinum-containing catalysts. BACKGROUND

[0002] Platinum has become the core material of automobile exhaust purification catalysts due to its excellent catalytic activity and chemical stability. However, the reserves of platinum (Pt) are scarce, and its recovery can reduce the dependence on primary mines and reduce the environmental pressure caused by mining. The platinum content in waste automobile platinum-containing catalysts and waste electronic components is much higher than that in primary mines. Compared with primary mine exploitation, recycling and regenerating platinum can reduce carbon dioxide emissions and avoid ecological damage caused by large-scale mining, which has significant environmental benefits, low recovery cost and high resource value.

[0003] Platinum recovery technology is the core means to realize the recycling of platinum resources. Traditional technologies mainly use pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy. Pyrometallurgy separates platinum from the matrix through high-temperature smelting, has large processing capacity and strong adaptability to complex matrices, but has high energy consumption (smelting temperature exceeding 1200℃), is prone to produce flue gas pollution, and the purity of platinum in the product is low. Hydrometallurgy uses chemical reagents to dissolve platinum, and then separates and purifies to obtain pure products. It is the current mainstream fine recovery technology, which can realize high-purity extraction of platinum. However, common extractants such as TBP, N235, and dibutyl carbitol have poor selectivity for platinum, and the separation coefficient of platinum and palladium (Pd) is usually low, so multiple back-extractions are needed to achieve effective separation, resulting in a long extraction process. SUMMARY

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present application provides a method for recovering and refining platinum from waste automobile platinum-containing catalysts. After the waste automobile platinum-containing catalysts to be treated are subjected to calcination, alkali treatment, leaching, first extraction, second extraction, back-extraction, platinum precipitation and reduction treatment, the finished product platinum is obtained. In the second extraction, an amide imidazole extractant is used, which is generated by the reaction of an amide derivative containing a pyridine ring and an imidazole cation salt. The cation combines with the negative complex ion of platinum through electrostatic adsorption, and the nitrogen atom of the pyridine ring forms specific coordination with the platinum ion. Through the dual action, selective recognition of platinum and exclusion of interfering ions are realized. At the same time, the extractant enhances the separation ability by improving the acid resistance with amide bond, reducing the cost with imidazole cation, and cooperating with pre-extraction impurity removal and anti-emulsion system, to prepare high-purity platinum and improve the recovery efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:

[0006] The present application provides a method for recovering and refining platinum from waste automobile platinum-containing catalysts, comprising the following steps:

As a condensing agent, EDC·HCl promotes the formation of amide bond by activating the carboxyl group, reducing side reactions.

[0015] Preferably, the mass ratio of the 1-methylimidazole, 1-bromodecane, potassium iodide and silver chloride in S1 is (28-28.2):(80-82):0.1:(35-36); the preparation method of the second intermediate comprises: mixing the 1-methylimidazole, 1-bromodecane and potassium iodide, and then reacting at 80-85°C for 8-10h, then adding silver chloride, and reacting in the dark for 4-6h, then filtering, and distilling the filtrate under reduced pressure to obtain the second intermediate.

[0016] 1-methylimidazole (N atom containing a lone pair of electrons) undergoes nucleophilic substitution reaction with 1-bromodecane to generate 1-decyl-3-methylimidazole bromide salt, which then undergoes ion exchange with silver chloride (AgCl), and bromide ion combines with Ag + to generate AgBr precipitate, and chloride ion combines with 1-decyl-3-methylimidazole cation to form imidazole cation salt (1-decyl-3-methylimidazole chloride salt) containing chloride ion, which is the core cation part of the second intermediate. The cation carries a positive charge, and can combine with the negative complex ion (PtCl64- 2- ) formed by platinum in the hydrochloric acid system through electrostatic adsorption, which is one of the key structures for selective capture of platinum by the amide imidazole extractant.

[0017] Preferably, the mass ratio of the first intermediate and the second intermediate in S1 is (42-45):(30-32); the preparation reaction temperature of the amide imidazole extractant is 40-45°C, and the time is 3-5h.

[0018] The first intermediate contains a pyridine ring, which is an anion group, and combines with the second intermediate containing a cation group through electrostatic attraction to form an ionic liquid structure to obtain the amide imidazole extractant.

[0020] In the process of calcination at high temperature 1300-1400℃, the carrier of the spent car catalyst to be treated, cordierite (2MgO·2Al2O3·5SiO2), reacts with sodium carbonate and sodium borate to form sodium silicate, sodium aluminate, sodium aluminosilicate and magnesium oxide, while the platinum group metals do not react and remain in the original state; the calcination product is ground to increase the contact area, and sodium silicate and sodium aluminate are dissolved in hot water at this time, while the sodium aluminosilicate is not dissolved, and magnesium hydroxide or basic magnesium carbonate may be formed. Then the sodium aluminosilicate and other water-insoluble substances are dissolved by mixing acid solution, and after solid-liquid separation, most of the magnesium, aluminum, silicon, sodium, etc. enter the solution, and the platinum group metals enter the filter residue.

[0021] Preferably, the mass-volume ratio of the pretreated platinum-containing material, hydrochloric acid and NaClO3 in S2 is (9.8-10.2) kg:50 L:5.4 kg, the temperature of the leaching treatment is 70-75℃, and the time is 3-5h; the concentration of the hydrochloric acid is 6-8 mol / L.

[0022] Hydrochloric acid provides high-concentration Cl - , and NaClO3 as an oxidizing agent oxidizes solid Pt to soluble PtCl6 2- (3Pt+ClO3 - +6H + +11Cl - =3PtCl6 2- +3H2O), so that platinum is transferred from the solid material to the solution, realizing the preliminary leaching and selective enrichment of platinum, while Pd and Rh have a lower leaching rate due to insufficient oxidation conditions.

[0023] Preferably, the volume ratio of the tri-butyl phosphate and the sulfonated kerosene in the first extraction liquid in S3 is (20-25):(75-80), and the first extraction treatment includes: mixing the platinum-containing leaching solution with the first extraction liquid in equal volume and then standing to separate the layers, and taking the lower aqueous phase as the platinum-containing pre-extraction liquid.

[0024] Tri-butyl phosphate (TBP) as an extractant forms a neutral complex (FeCl3・3TBP) with Fe 3+ and other impurity ions (in the form of FeCl4 - ) in the leaching solution, which is extracted into the sulfonated kerosene organic phase, removing Fe 3+ and other interfering ions in the leaching solution to avoid their competition with platinum for the binding sites of the extractant.

[0026] The cationic part (imidazole cation) of the amide imidazole extractant is combined with PtCl6 2- through electrostatic attraction, and the pyridine ring nitrogen atom of the anionic part is combined with the empty d orbital of Pt 4+ through a lone pair of electrons to form a specific coordination bond, so that PtCl6 2- is selectively transferred from the pre-extraction liquid to the organic phase; while PdCl4 2- and RhCl6 3- are difficult to be combined due to poor charge distribution, structure and extractant adaptability, so that platinum and other noble metals such as Pd and Rh are efficiently separated, and the enrichment degree of platinum is greatly improved. The countercurrent extraction strengthens the separation efficiency through multi-stage contact.

[0027] Preferably, in S5, the stripping treatment includes mixing the platinum-containing extraction liquid, a 0.3-0.4mol / L Na2SO3 solution and a 0.5-0.6mol / L HCl solution in a volume ratio of (6-6.2):2:1 for extraction, taking the lower liquid as the platinum-containing stripping liquid after standing and separating, the temperature of the stripping treatment is 40-45℃, and the time is 1-2h.

[0028] The SO3 2- provided by sodium sulfite (Na2SO3) forms a stable complex ion [Pt(SO3)4] 4+ with Pt 4- , replaces the combination of the extractant and platinum, and transfers platinum from the organic phase to the aqueous phase to obtain a high-concentration platinum-containing stripping liquid, so that platinum and the extractant are separated, and subsequent purification is facilitated; hydrochloric acid maintains an acidic environment to promote the complex equilibrium to move in the stripping direction.

[0029] Preferably, in S6, the amount of the ammonium chloride is 8%-15% of the mass of the platinum-containing stripping liquid; the solid content of the platinum precipitation slurry is 15%-25%; the hydrazine hydrate is a 10% hydrazine hydrate solution, the volume ratio of the platinum-containing stripping liquid to the hydrazine hydrate solution is 100:(1.25-1.67), the temperature of the reduction treatment is 30-80℃, the time is 0.5-2h, and after the reduction treatment, filtration is performed, and the filter residue is the finished product platinum.

[0030] The platinum ions in the platinum-containing stripping solution react with ammonium chloride to form ammonium chloroplatinate precipitate (H2PtCl6+2NH4Cl=(NH4)2PtCl6↓+2HCl), thereby realizing the enrichment and purification of platinum.

[0031] Preferably, hydrazine hydrate is added after the pH of the platinum deposition slurry is adjusted to 7.5-12.

[0032] In the alkaline environment with pH=7.5-12, hydrazine hydrate reduces the ammonium chloroplatinate to metallic platinum as a strong reducing agent, and high-purity finished platinum is obtained after washing and drying.

[0033] Beneficial technical effects:

[0034] The application provides a method for recovering and extracting platinum from a waste automobile platinum-containing catalyst. The extraction effect on platinum is improved by using an amide imidazole extractant. The amide imidazole extractant is introduced to carry a positive ion part, and the negative complex ion formed by platinum in a hydrochloric acid system is preliminarily combined through electrostatic adsorption, so that the capture efficiency of the platinum complex ion is improved, and the extraction is promoted. On the other hand, by introducing an anion part containing a pyridine ring structure, the lone pair electrons of the pyridine ring nitrogen atom can form a specific coordination bond with the empty d orbital of the platinum ion. This coordination has a high structure adaptability, and forms a stable combination with the platinum ion. At this time, other noble metal ions such as palladium (Pd) and rhodium (Rh) cannot form a coordination bond with the pyridine ring with the same strength, and the charge distribution and structure of the complex ion cannot be adapted, so they are effectively excluded, thereby realizing the selective separation of platinum. Through the dual action of electrostatic adsorption and specific coordination, the application realizes the selective recognition of platinum and effectively excludes interfering ions. At the same time, the amide imidazole extractant replaces the ester bond with an amide bond to improve the acid resistance, and cooperates with the imidazole cation to reduce the cost, solves the contradiction between the stability and economy of the traditional ionic liquid, and cooperates with the process design such as pre-extraction impurity removal and anti-emulsification system, significantly enhances the separation ability of platinum and other noble metals, and finally improves the extraction efficiency while considering environmental protection and practicality.

[0078] Comparative Example 2

[0079] A method for recovering and refining platinum from a waste automobile platinum-containing catalyst, the implementation steps and parameters are the same as those of Example 1, except that trihexylphosphine is used instead of 1-methylimidazole.

[0080] Comparative Example 3

[0085] Table 1 Test results of purity and Pt recovery rate of finished product platinum prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3

[0086] Final platinum purity (%) Pt recovery (%) Example 1 99.97 98.0 Example 2 99.96 96.5 Example 3 99.95 94.6 Comparative Example 1 82.55 85.3 Comparative Example 2 88.74 90.2 Comparative Example 3 85.10 88.6

[0087] As shown in Table 1, the purity of finished product platinum obtained by the method for recovering and extracting platinum from waste automobile platinum-containing catalyst provided in Examples 1-3 is greater than 99.95%, and the Pt recovery rate is 94.6%-98.0%. The purity of finished product platinum in Comparative Examples 1-3 is only 82.55%-88.74%, and the recovery rate is 85.3%-90.2%, which is significantly lower than that of the examples, indicating that the scheme of the application can prepare high-purity platinum and improve the recovery efficiency.

[0088] In Comparative Example 1, TBP is used to replace the amide imidazole extractant. TBP only has electrostatic adsorption with PtCl6 2- , lacks specific coordination, and has weak repulsion ability to PdCl4 2- and RhCl6 3- , resulting in a significant increase in the co-extraction rate of the three metals and a decrease in the purity of the finished product platinum. At the same time, TBP has weak extraction ability to Pt and is easily interfered by impurities such as Fe 3+ , resulting in a decrease in the final recovery rate to 85.3%.

[0089] In Comparative Example 2, trihexylphosphine is used to replace 1-methylimidazole. Trihexylphosphine cations have poor stability and are easily hydrolyzed to form byproducts in acidic leaching solution, resulting in a decrease in the effective concentration of the extractant. The electrostatic adsorption of trihexylphosphine with PtCl6 2- is weak, and it lacks the structural adaptability of the imidazole ring, resulting in a decrease in the selectivity to platinum, an increase in the co-extraction rate of Pd / Rh, and a decrease in the purity of the finished product platinum. At the same time, the hydrolysis products occupy the extraction sites, resulting in a decrease in the capture efficiency of platinum and a decrease in the recovery rate.

[0090] In Comparative Example 3, n-butylamine is used to replace 2-aminopyridine. n-Butylamine does not contain a pyridine ring, loses the specific coordination with Pt 4+ , and only relies on electrostatic adsorption to capture PtCl6 2- , resulting in a significant decrease in the ability to distinguish Pd and Rh and a significant decrease in the purity. In addition, the combination ability of the extractant without a pyridine ring with PtCl6 2- is reduced, resulting in the ineffective extraction of part of the platinum and a decrease in the recovery rate.
