Problems solved by technology

[0004] Recently, some people also add high-arsenic solution or arsenic salt to the copper electrolyte, so that the Sb and Bi in the electrolyte and As form a precipitate and enter the anode slime. Miscellaneous effect, with the extension of use time, the purification effect is getting worse and worse

Abstract

The invention relates to a copper electrolyte purification and impurity removal method, wherein, the speed of arsenic antimonates being separated out from copper electrolytes is accelerated by control of the relative mass ratio of antimony / bismuth in anode coppers to be 0.8 to 8.0 percent, the concentration of arsenic in the copper electrolytes to be 4.0 grams per liter to 15 grams per liter, and the concentration ratio of arsenic (III) / arsenic (V) to be 0.01 to 0.15, and then the self purification and impurity removal capacity of the copper electrolytes is further improved; the volume of the electrolytes which are purified by adoption of the prior art for production of a ton of cathode coppers during the electrorefining process of the coppers is driven to be below 0.1m<3>; the impurity concentration in the electrolytes is maintained to be 50 to 250 milligrams per liter for antimony and 60 to 300 milligrams per liter for bismuth. The copper electrolyte purification and impurity removal method has the advantages of simple technology, simple and convenient operation, small reagent dosage, good purification effect, low production cost, no side effect on the main technology and so on.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a copper electrolyte purification and impurity removal method. Background technique [0002] The arsenic, antimony and bismuth impurities in the anode copper are electrochemically dissolved together with the anode copper into the electrolyte during the electrolytic refining process. Since the precipitation potential of these impurities is close to that of copper, when the concentration of arsenic, antimony, and bismuth in the electrolyte accumulates to a certain level, they will be precipitated at the cathode, affecting the quality of cathode copper. Therefore, the copper electrolytic refining process must continuously purify the electrolyte. The traditional process of copper electrolyte purification is: extracting part of the electrolyte from the electrolyte circulation system; evaporation and crystallization to obtain copper sulfate; electrowinning of the crystallization mother liquor to remove copper and remove impurities t...
