Abstract The valence state and speciation of As in spent SCR catalysts used in coal-fired power plants was studied by XPS and ICP. The results show that As in spent SCR catalysts exists in the form of As2O3 and As2O5. As2O3 is difficult to be leached directly in weak alkaline solution, so it is difficult to be removed completely. In order to solve this problem, the alkali method with oxidant added was proposed. The effects of oxidizer species, time, temperature, NaOH concentration, H2O2 concentration, solid to liquid ratio on the removal efficiency of As were studied. The results show that the removal efficiency of As could reach as high as 98.5% under the optimal leaching conditions of reaction temperature 30 ℃, reaction time 4 h, NaOH concentration 10wt%, H2O2 concentration 5wt%, the ratio of liquid to solid 2 mL/g, and the arsenic oxide content in the solid was reduced from 1 334×10-6 to 50×10-6. The content of As in detoxified SCR catalysts could reach the requirement of fresh SCR catalysts. The removal mechanism of As was studied by EPR and XPS methods, and a new advanced oxidation process was used to treat spent SCR catalysts. The V2O5 in spent SCR catalysts reacts with NaOH to form HV2O5- and VO43-. Under the influence of HV2O5- and VO43- in the leaching solution, H2O2 produces hydroxyl radicals (·OH) in alkali solution. Hydroxyl radicals have strong oxidizing properties and oxidize As3+, which is not easily soluble in weak alkali, to As5+.
