Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically relating to a method for removing metallic impurities from acidic copper-containing etching wastewater at room temperature and pressure. Background Technology

[0002] Chemical etching is an important process in the manufacture of printed circuit boards. In recent years, with the rapid development of the electronics industry, a large amount of etching wastewater has been generated. Commonly used acidic etching wastewater includes copper chloride etching solution and ferric chloride etching solution. If discharged directly without treatment, it will not only lead to the waste and loss of copper resources, but also cause harm to humans and the environment.

[0003] Currently, the method for removing impurities from acidic etching wastewater generally involves adding specific ion exchange resins to adsorb metal impurities and then adding alkali to precipitate and prepare low-purity products. However, ion exchange resins have limited selectivity, generate a large amount of sludge, and due to the solubility product of hydroxides, problems such as incomplete precipitation of metal impurities and enrichment of metal impurities may occur.

[0004] Chinese Patent CN107662988A discloses a method for treating copper-containing acidic etching waste liquid. First, copper oxide is obtained through acid-base neutralization. After washing to remove impurities, the copper oxide is added to the copper-containing micro-etching waste liquid to obtain a copper sulfate electrolyte. The copper sulfate electrolyte is then subjected to secondary electrolysis, completing the waste liquid treatment. However, this technical solution requires electrolysis, making the process complex. Chinese Patent CN104556467B discloses a method and equipment for treating etching waste liquid. The method includes: mixing acidic and alkaline etching waste liquids; adjusting the pH of the mixed etching waste liquid and heating it to cause a neutralization reaction; separating the precipitate and filtrate; and adding a flocculant to the filtrate to flocculate suspended particles and suspended colloidal arsenic. However, this technical solution only removes arsenic impurities. Summary of the Invention

Specifically, this invention provides a method for removing metallic impurities from acidic copper-containing etching wastewater at room temperature and pressure. The method provided by this invention has high removal rates for Fe, Ni, Zn, Ca, and Mg, and can also maintain a high content of copper ions.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objective, the present invention provides a method for removing metallic impurities from acidic copper-containing etching wastewater at room temperature and pressure, comprising the following steps:

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] The method for removing metallic impurities from acidic copper-containing etching wastewater at room temperature and pressure provided by this invention combines oxidation-reduction treatment with phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate precipitation. By strictly controlling the amount of phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate added and the pH of the solution, it can effectively remove metallic impurities Fe, Ni, Zn, Ca, and Mg from copper-containing etching wastewater while avoiding the loss of copper ions. Testing shows that the removal rate of Fe in copper-containing etching wastewater is >95%, the removal rate of Ni is 100%, the removal rate of Zn is >93%, the removal rate of Ca is >98%, the removal rate of Mg is >98%, and the copper ion loss rate is <0.5%.

[0021] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of the method for removing metallic impurities from acidic copper-containing etching wastewater at room temperature and pressure according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0022] To enable those skilled in the art to more clearly understand the technical solutions described in this invention, the following embodiments are provided for illustration. It should be noted that the following embodiments do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection claimed by this invention. Unless otherwise specified, the raw materials, reagents, or apparatus used in the following embodiments and comparative examples can be obtained from conventional commercial sources or by existing known methods.

[0023] This invention provides a method for removing metallic impurities from acidic copper-containing etching wastewater at room temperature and pressure, comprising the following steps:

[0024] S1. Add an oxidant to the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater to carry out an oxidation-reduction reaction and obtain a pretreatment solution;

[0025] S2. Add phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate to the pretreatment solution, and adjust the pH to 1.3-1.7 using a pH adjuster. Stir, filter, and the purified copper-containing solution is obtained.

[0026] The mechanism by which the present invention removes metallic impurities is as follows: First, an oxidant is added to the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater to carry out an oxidation-reduction reaction, oxidizing the ferrous and cuprous ions in the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater into ferric and copper ions, as shown in the following reaction formula: ; Next, phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate is added, and the pH is controlled to allow the metal impurities to react with phosphate ions to form phosphate precipitates, selectively precipitating the metal impurities while minimizing copper loss. The reaction formula is as follows: .

[0027] The pH in step S2 can be 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, or any combination of two of these. The inventors have discovered that the pH in step S2 needs to be strictly controlled between 1.3 and 1.7. When the pH is below 1.3, the removal rate of metal impurities will decrease, and when the pH is above 1.7, the copper loss rate will increase.

[0028] In some preferred embodiments, the copper concentration in the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater in step S1 is 8-11 wt%, and the acidity is 2-4 mol / L.

[0029] If the concentration and acidity of the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater exceed the above range, sodium chlorate or hydrogen peroxide, ferrous oxide, cuprous ions, and water can be added to adjust the concentration, and ammonia or liquid alkali can be added to adjust the acidity.

[0030] In some preferred embodiments, the oxidant in step S1 is selected from at least one of sodium chlorate, hydrogen peroxide, potassium chlorate, sodium hypochlorite, and potassium hypochlorite.

[0033] In some preferred embodiments, the redox reaction in step S1 takes 20-40 minutes.

[0034] In some preferred embodiments, the soluble phosphate in step S2 is selected from at least one of sodium phosphate and ammonium phosphate.

[0035] In some preferred embodiments, the amount of phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate added in step S2 is 1.5-2 times the content of metal impurities in the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater.

[0036] Preferably, the metallic impurities include Fe, Ni, Zn, Ca, and Mg.

[0037] The amount of phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate added in step S2 can be 1.5 times, 1.6 times, 1.7 times, 1.8 times, 1.9 times, or 2 times the metal impurity content in the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater, or any combination thereof. The inventors have discovered that the amount of phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate added in step S2 needs to be strictly controlled. When the amount of phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate added is less than 1.5 times the metal impurity content in the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater, the removal rate of metal impurities will decrease. When the amount of phosphoric acid or soluble phosphate added is greater than 2 times the metal impurity content in the acidic copper-containing etching wastewater, the copper loss rate will increase.

[0038] In some preferred embodiments, the pH adjuster in step S2 is selected from at least one of ammonia and liquid alkali.

[0039] More preferably, the liquid alkali is selected from at least one of sodium hydroxide solution and potassium hydroxide solution.

[0040] In some preferred embodiments, the stirring time in step S2 is 20-40 minutes.
