Solid waste spent catalyst recover from North Atlantic Refinery’s petrochemical plant in Come by Chance, NL
A hydrometallurgical process has been developed for metal recovery from spent HPCs. After analysing our catalyst, preliminary experiments showed that aqua regia is the most effective leaching agent to dissolve metals from our spent catalyst samples. Two amine-based extractants (Alamine308 & Alam...
