摘要
Recycling platinum group metals (PGMs) from spent automobile catalysts which have become the most important PGMs secondary resources is becoming quite important, due to the limitation of natural resource deposits of PGMs and the rapid industrial development. Among the processes of PGMs' recycling from spent automobile catalysts, the hydrometallurgical leaching drew extensive concerns, but the recovery of Rh was the most inefficient. Based on the effects of liquid-solid rate, sodium chlorate, reaction temperature, [H+] concentration, [Cl-] concentration on leaching of rhodium, the leaching kinetics of rhodium extracted from spent automotive catalyst in HCl-H2SO4-NaClO3 medium was studied. The results showed that the leaching process followed the shrinking core model, which indicated that the control factor of the leaching process was the surface reaction. Enhancing the leaching temperature, initial [H+] and initial [Cl-] would accelerate the speed of rhodium leaching and raise the leaching rate. The ratio of liquid to solid and the dosage of oxidant NaClO3 had few influences on the leaching rate of rhodium. The apparent activation energy was determined as 66.719 kJ·mol-1 within the selected temperature range by Arrhenius equation. The apparent reaction progressions of [H+] and [Cl-] were 0.779 and 0.296, respectively. What was more, the correlation coefficients fitting experimental data were more than 0.97.The kinetics study of leaching rhodium from spent automotive catalyst provided some references for the recycle of platinum group metals in industry practice. © Editorial Office of Chinese Journal of Rare Metals.
