Problems solved by technology

The copper powder replacement method is the main method for recovering tellurium from concentrated sulfuric acid solution in industry. This method uses copper powder and tellurium to generate copper telluride to recover tellurium. However, the production process of copper powder is complicated, and a large amount of copper powder will be consumed when recovering tellurium, and The production cost of the copper powder replacement method is high, and the subsequent separation of copper and tellurium is also complicated
Solvent extraction is greatly affected by acidity, and it is difficult to adapt to high-concentration sulfuric acid solution. The solution must b
