Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of noble metal hydrometallurgy, and in particular relates to a method for efficiently separating palladium and platinum-rhodium from phosphorus-containing noble iron alloys. Background Art

[0002] Precious metals mainly refer to platinum group metals including platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, etc., as well as gold and silver. Precious metal resources can be defined as primary resources and secondary resources, namely mineral precious metal resources and recycled precious metal resources. Precious secondary resources mainly refer to various available resources other than primary resources in nature, including waste generated during the production and manufacturing process, all materials containing recyclable precious metals that have partially or completely lost their original properties. Use precious metal secondary resources to make up for the shortage of mineral resources, ensure that mineral resources are not over-consumed, and realize the recycling and sustainable development of resources.

[0003] The secondary resource recovery of precious metals is mainly concentrated in the fields of waste jewelry, discarded electronic products, and automobile exhaust catalysts. They can be recovered by wet method, pyrolysis, or wet method combined with pyrolysis. The typical processing process is to produce precious iron alloys through electric arc furnace capture, and then achieve efficient recovery of platinum, palladium, and rhodium through wet refining. However, the phosphorus-containing precious iron alloys produced by electric arc furnace capture cannot be recovered through conventional wet refining processes. Because the phosphorus-containing precious iron alloys contain impurity elements such as phosphorus in addition to iron and precious metals, the presence of these elements makes the composition of the alloy complicated and increases the difficulty of wet refining. In particular, the phosphorus element may react with the refining agent or solvent during the wet refining process to form compounds that are difficult to remove, thereby affecting the recovery rate of precious metals.
