Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting metallic copper from a waste circuit board. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, crushing the waste circuit board from which elements and parts are removed into blocks, crushing by virtue of a crusher, and sieving by a 30-mesh sieve; sequentially carrying out winnowing and electric separation on the obtained granular powder to obtain a metal concentrate with relatively high copper content; leaching copper ions from the metal concentrate by using a leaching agent water solution which is composed of sodium chlorate, sulfuric acid and water; removing solid substances from the obtained leaching liquid by centrifugal separation or filter press filtration; carrying out five-stage extraction and second-stage reverse extraction on the obtained filtrate to obtain a copper-enriched solution, carrying out electrodeposition on the obtained copper-enrich solution by virtue of an electrode method, thus finally obtaining copper of which the purity is over 99.99% on the cathode material, so as to finish extraction of the metallic copper from the waste circuit board. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the metallic copper can be efficiently extracted from the waste circuit board; the method has the technical characteristics of high efficiency, energy saving, low cost, simple process and the like and is capable of achieving recycling and innocent treatment of the waste circuit board.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of environmental science and technology, and relates to a treatment method for electronic waste in solid waste, in particular to a method for extracting metal copper from waste circuit boards, so as to realize harmless and resourceful utilization of waste circuit boards. Background technique [0002] The printed circuit board is the support for the electrical connection of electronic components in electrical products. With the acceleration of the upgrading of various electrical products, more and more are being eliminated. If these waste circuit boards are discarded directly, the heavy metals in the circuit boards and the polymer materials on the substrate will cause huge pollution to the surrounding environment. At the same time, the valuable metals in the waste circuit boards are not recycled, resulting in waste. Using appropriate recycling technology to recycle waste circuit boards can not only avoid secondary pol...
