초록

2000년대에 접어들면서 선택적 촉매 환원(SCR) 촉매에 대한 광범위한 수요가 점차 증가하고 있다. SCR 촉매는 환경보호를 위해 질소산화물(NOx)의 배출 방지에 사용 된다. 일반적으로 SCR 촉매의 주성분은 TiO2(70~80 %), WO3(7~10 %), V2O5(~1 %) 등으로 구성되어있다. SCR 폐촉매는 대개 매립되어 폐기 되는데, 분해도가 극히 낮아 매립지에 영구적으로 남아있게 된다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 환경을 보호하고 페촉매에 함유되어 있는 유가금속의 회수를 위하여 새로운 첨단기술의 개발이 필요하다. 이러한 SCR 폐촉매의 처리를 위해 침출 및 액-액 추출과 같은 습식제련법이 설계되고 개발되었다. 첫 번째 단계에서 SCR 폐촉매로부터 바나듐과 텅스텐을 선택적으로 침출한 후, 액-액 추출 공정에 의해 처리되었다. 바나듐과 텅스텐의 선택적 추출을 위해 D2EHPA, PC 88A, TBP, Cyanex 272, Aliquat 336과 같은 다양한 상용 용매추출제를 이용한 실험을 수행하였다. 바나듐과 텅스텐의 추출 및 분리를 위해 세정(scrubbing) 및 탈거(stripping) 연구가 수행되고 최적화 되었다. 3상의 생성을 억제하기 위해 iso-decanol 시약을 사용하여 최적화 하였다.

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 the spent SCR catalyst processing. In a first stage, V and W selectively leached from spent SCR catalyst, then both the metals were processed by liquid-liquid extraction process. Various commercial extractants such as D2EHPA, PC 88A, TBP, Cyanex 272, Aliquat 336 were tested for selective extraction of title metals. Scrubbing and stripping studies were tested and optimized for vanadium and tungsten extraction and possible separation. 3rd phase studies were optimized by using iso-decanol reagent.
