Description

Method for enriching platinum, palladium and rhodium in waste ternary catalyst by pyrogenic process
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for enriching platinum, palladium and rhodium in a waste three-way catalyst by a pyrogenic process, in particular to a method for enriching platinum, palladium and rhodium in a waste three-way catalyst by a two-stage pyrogenic process, belonging to the field of precious metal extraction and separation.
Background
The ternary catalyst containing platinum, palladium and rhodium can convert CO, HC and NO x Conversion to non-toxic CO 2 、H 2 O、N 2 Therefore, platinum group metals are widely used in automobile exhaust gas purifying catalysts. Each ternary catalyst uses 1-2 g of platinum group metal, the ternary catalyst is replaced by about 10 ten thousand kilometers, the current ternary waste catalyst added with the waste car replaced every year exceeds 20000 tons, the platinum, palladium and rhodium are contained by about 40t, and the value is about 200 hundred million yuan. Therefore, the development of the technology for efficiently recovering the noble metal in the three-way catalyst has important economic and social benefits.
At present, precious metals are recovered from three-way catalysts of automobiles, and the two treatment processes can be divided into an all-wet recovery process and a combined process of a pyrogenic humidifying method.
There are reports (Zhou Jun et al, recovering platinum group metals [ J ]. Nonferrous metals from granular automobile waste catalysts: smelting part, 1996 (2): 5.DOI: CNKI: SUN: METE.0.1996-02-008.) using a sulfation roasting-water leaching method, gamma-alumina in the automobile clean gas waste catalysts is converted into soluble aluminum sulfate, and aluminum sulfate is dissolved with water, but most of platinum group metals remain in the residue, the recovery rate of the obtained products is not high, and the solution is difficult to filter, and the produced wastewater is also large.
Chinese patent CN1385545a discloses a method for recovering metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium from automobile exhaust waste catalyst, which adopts an atmospheric pressure dissolution method to treat the automobile exhaust catalyst, and the treatment flow is as follows: crushing the waste catalyst, dissolving by inorganic acid, ion exchange, ammonifying to separate platinum, complexing to extract palladium, and replacing rhodium by copper powder, wherein the yields of platinum, palladium and rhodium are 96%, 97% and 90% respectively, but the platinum and palladium in the leaching solution are subjected to the traditional precipitation separation process, and repeated precipitation separation for many times is needed, so that the platinum and palladium are dispersed, and the direct yield is affected.
There are also reports of the prior art that precious metals in automobile waste catalysts are leached by pressure alkaline leaching pretreatment and pressure cyanidation, and leaching rates of platinum, palladium and rhodium respectively reach 98%, 99% and 96% for unused defective three-way catalysts. However, leaching is carried out under high pressure, and a large amount of highly toxic cyanide is used, so that a large danger is possibly brought, and the problems of low leaching rate, unstable leaching rate and the like of the used waste catalyst cannot be overcome.
The whole wet treatment process has short flow, but the leaching rate of platinum, palladium and rhodium is low, so that the total recovery rate is low; and the total wet process has large wastewater quantity, a large amount of chlorine radicals are contained in the wastewater and are difficult to treat, and meanwhile, leaching residues are still dangerous wastes and are difficult to treat. Therefore, the main stream technology at present adopts a fire method to smelt and enrich platinum, palladium and rhodium, and then adopts a wet method to dissolve, separate and purify.
Chinese patent CN104073641a discloses a process for recovering noble metals from spent car catalyst by plasma smelting enrichment recovery, which comprises adding magnetite collecting agent, coke as reducing agent, calcium oxide and fluorite as slag forming agent, and smelting at 1500-1600 ℃. In addition, chinese patent CN108441647A discloses a method for recovering noble metal platinum in automobile waste catalyst by a pyrogenic process, which comprises adding ferric oxide as a collector and a large amount of carbon as a reducer in the process of smelting by the pyrogenic process, wherein the smelting temperature is 1600-2000 ℃. There are also reports (Li Yong, he Xiaotang, xiong Qingfeng, et al. Smelting method for recovery of platinum palladium rhodium from spent automotive exhaust catalysts]Nonferrous metals: smelting section, 2017 (8): 40-43 pages)) discloses a method for enriching and recovering platinum, palladium and rhodium from a spent automobile exhaust catalyst by a smelting method, and researches on smelting and enriching platinum group metals and Fe are carried out on the spent automobile three-way catalyst 3 O 4 The comprehensive recovery rate of the metal platinum palladium rhodium can reach more than 97 percent at the smelting temperature of 1450 ℃ by taking the trapping agent, the coke as the reducing agent and the CaO as the slag former.
The above technology for enrichment and recovery of pyrometallurgy is characterized by large enrichment ratio, short flow, high production efficiency and no wastewater pollution. However, when the three-way catalyst of the automobile is treated by the smelting method at present, two problems exist: firstly, the enrichment multiple of noble metal is lower, the addition amount of general iron is about 10% of the raw material amount of the three-way catalyst, and the enrichment of noble metal is about 10 times; and secondly, in the prior art of fire enrichment, iron or ferric oxide is used as a collector, a coke reducer is added, and during high-temperature smelting, the carbon quality of the three-way catalyst and the added coke are easy to reduce silicon dioxide in cordierite into elemental silicon, and the elemental silicon is fused with the iron to generate high-silicon iron, so that the silicon iron and platinum group metal form a new alloy phase, and the alloy has extremely strong acid resistance and alkali resistance, increases the difficulty of subsequent iron leaching and precious metal leaching, and influences the recovery rate of platinum, palladium and rhodium.

In this comparative example, steps 1) to 3) were carried out in the same manner as in example 1, 178g of the same noble iron as in example 1 was produced, and the noble iron components were as follows,Pt 0.261%、Pd 1.916%、Rh 0.196%,SiO 2 12.5%, the direct recovery rate of the noble metal in the step is 96.9%, the enrichment multiple is 10.89 times, and the difference is that:
4) Dissolving iron removal
178g of the noble iron powder, adding 1500ml of 6mol/L HCl to dissolve and remove iron, maintaining the temperature at 90 ℃ and the total reaction time for 6 hours to obtain 50.6g of insoluble matters.
5) Aqua regia soluble noble metal
Dissolving 50.6g of insoluble matters in the step 4) by using aqua regia, preparing 300ml of concentrated aqua regia, adding 100ml of water into 50.6g of insoluble slag, slowly adding the prepared aqua regia, avoiding severe reaction, maintaining the temperature at 80-90 ℃, reacting for 4 hours, filtering and washing to obtain 500ml of leaching solution containing platinum, palladium, rhodium and iron.
6) Substitution enrichment of platinum palladium rhodium
50g of iron sheet and 10g of zinc particles are added into 500ml of leaching solution containing platinum, palladium and rhodium and other impurities, the platinum, palladium and rhodium in the leaching solution are replaced, the replacement temperature is 35 ℃, the time is 48 hours, the initial acidity of the reaction is 1.5mol/L, 1.2mg/L of platinum, 1.5mg/L of palladium and 5.6mg/L of rhodium in the replacement mother liquor are obtained by filtering, the platinum, palladium and rhodium enrichment is obtained by adding 300ml of hydrochloric acid with the concentration of 3mol/L, filtering after 60 minutes of boiling and washing, the enrichment is obtained by 8.8g, the analyzed platinum, palladium and rhodium contents are respectively Pt 4.9%, pd 36.5%, rh 3.6%, the total content of platinum, palladium and rhodium is 45.0%, the direct yield of platinum, palladium and rhodium is Pt 90.1%, pd 90.5% and Rh 87.6%.
Compared with the process of enriching noble iron through subsequent lead smelting and vacuum lead removing in the embodiment 1, the content, grade and direct yield of the noble metal enrichment produced by the process of enriching noble metal through smelting and enriching the noble iron by adopting a conventional wet method for dissolving iron in the comparative example are obviously reduced.
