Abstract

The invention discloses a method of recovering gold and silver from a waste circuit board. The method includes subjecting the waste circuit board to hot melt and separating soldering tin, components and substrates; recovering useful components in the components, smashing remaining components and the substrates, and sorting to separate plastic powder and metal powder; briquetting the metal powder and electrolyzing to obtain copper, and leaching electrolysis anode mud with nitric acid to recover the silver; and leaching filter residue with hydrochloric acid to recover the gold. The equipment and the method are simple. The silver and the gold in the circuit board can be effectively recovered. The recovery rate of the metals is high. Reutilization of resources of valuable metals in the waste circuit board is achieved. The method has great social benefit and economic benefit.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a processing method for electronic waste, in particular to a method for recovering gold and silver from waste circuit boards. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, the update frequency of electronic products is accelerating. As the key and most basic component of various electronic equipment, printed circuit boards have become one of the main sources of electronic waste. There are many harmful substances and many valuable substances in waste circuit boards. Usually, the circuit board contains 30% plastic, 30% inert oxide and 40% metal. The base metal (Cu, Pb, Zn, etc.) contained in the metal is about 30%, and the precious metal (Au, Ag, Pt, etc.) ) content is about 0.5%. Therefore, recycling copper, gold, silver, etc. in circuit boards is the main driving force for the recycling of circuit boards. If it is not recycled, the heavy metals in the circuit board will cause soil and water po...
