Recovery of the Vanadium and Tungsten from Spent SCR Catalyst Leach Solutions by Hydrometallurgical Methods#

Abstract

In new millennium, wide-reaching demands for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst have been increased gradually in new millennium. SCR catalyst can prevent the NOx emission to protect the environment. In SCR catalyst the main composition of the catalyst is typically TiO2 (70~80%), WO3 (7~10%), V2O5 (~1%) and others. When the SCR catalysts are used up and disposed to landfills, it is problematic that those should exist in the landfill site permanently due to their extremely low degradability. A new advanced technology needs to be developed primarily to protect environment and then recover the valuable metals. Hydrometallurgical techniques such as leaching and liquid-liquid extraction was designed and developed for SCR 폐촉매 침출액으로부터 습식제련법에 의한 바나듐, 텅스텐의 회수 63 자원리싸이클링 제 29권 제 2호, 2020
