METHOD FOR LEACHING VALUABLE METALS CONTAINED IN WASTE DENITRIFICATION CATALYST BY USING ROASTING AND WATER LEACHING

摘要

Disclosed is a method for effectively leaching valuable metals such as vanadium and tungsten contained in a waste denitrification catalyst by using roasting and water leaching. According to the present invention, the method for leaching valuable metals contained in a waste denitrification catalyst comprises the steps of: (a) mixing a waste denitrification catalyst containing vanadium (V) and tungsten (W) in the form of an oxide with an alkali metal compound to form a mixture; (b) roasting the mixture to generate a roasting product comprising sodium vanadate (NaVO 3 ) and sodium tungstate (Na 2 WO 4 ); and (c) injecting the roasting product into water to water leach sodium vanadate and sodium tungstate in the form of a vanadate ion (VO 3 - ) and a tungstate ion (WO 4 2- ).
