The invention relates to the field of vanadium slag hydrometallurgy and vanadium chemical engineering, in particular to a method for extracting chromium and vanadium from vanadium slag at a low temperature and the normal pressure. The method comprises the following steps that firstly, burdening, wherein the vanadium slag and a NaOH solution are mixed to form reaction slurry; secondly, reaction, oxide gas is led into the reaction slurry through a micro-hole arrangement device to carry out normal-pressure oxidative leaching, and after the reaction, solid-liquid mixed slurry of a solution containing NaOH, Na3VO4, Na2CrO4, water soluble impurity components and iron-rich tailings is obtained; thirdly, solid-liquid separation; fourthly, impurity removing; fifthly, sodium vanadate crystallization; and sixthly, sodium chromate crystallization. According to the method, chromium and vanadium efficient common extraction can be achieved, the extraction efficiency of both chromium and vanadium can be higher than 85%, more importantly, after the micro-hole gas distribution manner is adopted, the oxygen solubility can be obviously improved, the reaction temperature and alkali concentration are obviously reduced compared with those of an existing vanadium extraction method, the operation safety is greatly improved, and reaction energy consumption is reduced.
