Patent ID: 7592283

Claim:
A method of regenerating a waste honeycomb type SCR catalyst used in an industrial boiler, the method comprising: placing the waste honeycomb type SCR catalyst in an air lift loop reactor having a gas/liquid separation container, the air lift loop reactor generating bubbles having a size of less than 500 μm; and circulating a mixed solution containing 0.1 M to 1.0 M H 2 SO 4 , 0.005 M to 0.1 M NH 4 VO 3 and 0.005 M to 0.1 M 5(NH 4 ) 2 O.12WO 3 .5H 2 O in the air lift loop reactors, the mixed solution passing through the waste honeycomb type SCR catalyst along with the generated bubbles to regenerate the SCR catalyst and produce contaminated gases, wherein the contaminated gases are trapped in the bubbles, separated in the gas/liquid separation container, and discharged to outside from the air lift loop reactor.
