Spent Catalyst Metal Recovery Methods by starzgazer is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Catalysts are used widely in petroleum refining to produce fuels and other products. They become contaminated over time and must be replaced. Spent catalysts contain valuable metals like molybdenum, vanadium, nickel, and cobalt. Recovery of these metals from spent catalysts involves pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical processes and can provide energy savings and environmental benefits compared to virgin metal production. The global market for refining catalysts was over $2.5 billion in 2005 and is expe
