AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The physical method mainly uses gravity separation, magnetic separation, electrostatic separation and other methods to separate the copper in the metal mixture. The disadvantage is that the recovery rate and grade of copper are not high; the microbial method is not mature enough and is still in the stage of exploration; In the chemical method, the circuit board is first oxidized with concentrated sulfuric acid or nitric acid, and then other metals are added to replace the copper ions, or the solution is directly heated to obtain copper sulfate crystals. These methods have low recovery rate, high corrosion or processing costs. High disadvantage

Abstract

This invention relates to a method for extracting Cu from electrical wastes. The method comprises: utilizing electrical wastes such as printed circuit board as the raw materials, dissolving Cu by oxygen via indirect oxidation in a three-phase bed, extracting Cu by solvent extraction, performing back extraction, concentrating, and performing electrodeposition on the concentrate to obtain Cu with purity up to 99.99%. The method can recover Cu from electrical wastes such as printed circuit board, thus reducing environmental pollution.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of inorganic chemistry, in particular to a method for extracting metal copper from electronic waste. Background technique [0002] Electronic waste such as printed circuit boards contains dozens of elements, so many elements bring great difficulties to the comprehensive treatment of electronic waste. And it contains a lot of highly toxic elements, if not handled properly, it will bring great harm to the environment and human health. At the same time, these elements also contain many valuable metals, among which copper has the highest content. If copper is not recycled and discarded directly, it will be a great waste of resources. According to data, 130 kg of copper can be separated from 1 ton of electronic boards (mobile phones and computers). Therefore, the development of a process for extracting metals from electronic waste such as printed circuit boards can not only eliminate its harm to the environment and human...
