摘要 |
The present invention discloses method of recovering valuable metals, such as vanadium, molybdenum, nickel from the catalysts spent in the VRDS process for desulfurization of pertroleum. The method comprises leaching water-insoluble reactants after reacting the pre-treated waste crystals in solution of sodium hydroxide, maintaining the filtrate at pH 9.5 by adding sulfhuric acid or hydrochloric acid and then heating the filtrate, removing aluminium oxide from the soltuion, aerating the filtrate continously or priodically and agitating the filtrate below pH 1 at 80-100° C., thereby precipitating molybdenum oxide and vanadium oxide, and leaching and washing the precipitated molybdenum oxide and vanadium oxide.
