Palladium Carbon Recovery: Common Methods and Technical Analysis of Waste Palladium Carbon Recovery

Palladium carbon recovery is an important environmental protection technology, which is used to recover and reuse waste Palladium on carbon. Palladium on carbon is widely used in chemical industry, petroleum industry and environmental protection. Its high cost and Scarcity make recycling and reuse become necessary measures for sustainable economic and environmental development. This article will introduce some commonly used methods and technologies for palladium carbon recovery.

1、 Chemical treatment methods

1. Acid dissolution method: React carbon materials containing palladium with acidic solutions such as concentrated nitric acid and hydrochloric acid to dissolve palladium in the solution. Then, palladium is separated from the solution through precipitation or extraction techniques. The acid dissolution method is suitable for treating waste catalysts and electronic waste containing a large amount of palladium.

2. Solvent extraction method: Use organic solvents such as dioctyl sulfide (D2EHPA) or tributyl phosphate (TBP) to extract palladium from carbon materials containing palladium. Solvent extraction is an efficient and controllable method commonly used to treat wastewater or solutions containing low concentrations of palladium.

2、 Heat treatment method

1. Combustion method: Carbon materials containing palladium are burned at high temperatures to oxidize palladium into palladium oxide (PdO). Then, palladium oxide is reduced to metallic palladium through chemical reduction. The combustion method is suitable for treating waste catalysts and electronic waste containing a large amount of palladium.

2. Pyrolysis method: Pyrolysis of carbon materials containing palladium at high temperatures to release palladium from the carbon material. Then, the palladium is collected by cooling and solidification. The pyrolysis method is suitable for treating waste or wastewater containing low concentrations of palladium.

3、 Electrochemical methods

Electrochemical method is a commonly used and efficient palladium carbon recovery technology. Among them, electrodialysis and electrolysis are the two most common methods.

1. Electrodialysis: Put the carbon material containing palladium in the Electrolytic cell, and reduce the palladium ion to metal palladium under the action of current, so as to achieve recovery. The electrodialysis method is suitable for treating solutions or wastewater containing moderate concentrations of palladium.

2. Electrolysis method: Carbon materials containing palladium are used as anodes, insoluble cathode materials are paired with them, and palladium ions are reduced to metallic palladium through electrolysis reaction. The electrolysis method is suitable for treating solutions or wastewater containing low concentrations of palladium.

Palladium carbon recovery is an important environmental task, which can reduce dependence on palladium ore and reduce the discharge of palladium waste. Chemical treatment methods, heat treatment methods, and electrochemical methods are commonly used palladium carbon recovery technologies, with their respective advantages and applicability. In practical applications, appropriate recovery methods and technologies can be selected based on factors such as palladium concentration, waste properties, and economic benefits to maximize the recovery and reuse of palladium. With the continuous progress of technology, it is believed that palladium carbon recovery will become more efficient and sustainable.
