Problems solved by technology

[0003] The existing method of direct electrolytic recovery of copper from acidic etching waste liquid is the membrane electrolysis method, because the acidic etching liquid contains a large amount of Cl - (The concentration is between 200g / L-330g / L), which has a strong depolarization effect, making the copper easily obtained in the electrolysis process of the etching waste liquid be powdery or produce serious nodular phenomenon, nodular Copper is easy to block or pierce the diaphragm, causing electrolysis equipment to be paralyzed and affecting production
However, copper powder is easy to peel off to the bottom of the cathode tank, and a special auxiliary system for copper powder removal is required, and copper powder is easily oxidized and discolored, which affects purity, poor appearance, and its value will be greatly reduced

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering copper from an acidic etching waste liquid, which comprises the following steps: by using the acidic etching waste liquid emitted by a PCB (printed circuit board) etching process as a catholyte and anolyte, sequentially adding an accelerator, a grain refiner and a leveling agent into the catholyte, and carrying out direct-current electrolysis at the cathode current density of 100-1000A/m<2> for 10-30 hours, thereby obtaining the metal copper in the cathode chamber, wherein the accelerator is an ammonia derivative, the grain refiner is a sulfonic organic sulfide, and the leveling agent is polyvinyl alcohol. The method can be used for directly obtaining a copper block, and the deposited copper block has the advantages of high purity, easy stripping and no branch and can not penetrate through the diaphragm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of environmental engineering, in particular to a method for recovering copper from acidic etching waste liquid. Background technique [0002] Acid etching solution is an etching solution used in the etching process in the production process of printed circuit boards (especially the production of fine lines and the inner layer of multi-layer boards), mainly including HCl / NaCl / CuCl 2 System, HCl / NH 4 Cl / CuCl 2 System, HCl / CuCl 2 system. With the progress of the etching process, the Cu in the etching solution 2+ Concentration decreases continuously, Cu + And the total copper concentration continues to rise, and the etching rate decreases. At this time, it is necessary to discharge the etching waste liquid or perform regeneration. The concentration of copper in the etching waste liquid is very high, between 100 g / L-160 g / L, direct discharge will seriously pollute the environment, if the high value-added c...
