The invention discloses a silver removal method for preparing
electrolyte for high-purity
copper, and relates to the technical field of non-
ferrous metal hydrometallurgy. The method specifically comprises the following steps that
electrolyte for preparing high-purity
copper in an
electrolysis device is extracted in the
electrolysis process, a silver removal agent is added into the
electrolyte for preparing the high-purity
copper, then stirring reaction is conducted, and the reacted electrolyte for the high-purity copper is obtained; and precisely filtering the reacted electrolyte for the high-purity copper, wherein the obtained filtrate is the electrolyte for preparing the high-purity copper after silver removal. According to the technology, the technical problem that the Ag content in the
cathode high-purity copper obtained through
electrolysis or electrodeposition exceeds 5N and above high-purity copper is solved, the technology has the advantages of being deep and
environmentally friendly, equipment is simple, and the process is short.
