Abstract

The present invention discloses a method and system of recovering elemental sulfur and regenerating the catalyst for a sulfur-deposited catalyst, including immersing the sulfur-deposited catalyst in the ammonium sulfide solution, the leaching reaction under normal pressure and temperature, replacing the ammonium sulfide solution and immersing again for extraction for the same time; collecting the leachate of the two steps, conducting gas stripping of the elemental sulfur by adopting the high-temperature nitrogen gas, condensing the tail gas of gas stripping, subjecting to a purification treatment and then discharging, with the liquor condensate being the ammonium sulfide solution. Finally, the solid in the leachate is filtered, washed and dried after the gas stripping to obtain the elemental sulfur; and the washing and drying of catalysts that has been subjected to the two times of immersion and extraction obtain the regenerated catalysts.
