Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of heavy metal recovery, and in particular to a method for recovering heavy metals from metal wastes. Background Art

[0002] Metal waste refers to waste materials such as used and discarded metal products, obsolete machinery, and solid waste. These wastes typically originate from industrial production, building demolition, and discarded electronic products. Because they contain reusable metal components, they are considered "renewable resources." However, the rapid development of electronic technology and the frequent replacement of electronic products have led to the rapid obsolescence of a large number of electronic devices, generating significant amounts of electronic waste. Furthermore, strong consumer demand for newer electronic products has shortened the average lifespan of these products, further increasing the generation of electronic waste.

[0003] Waste from electronic and electrical products includes a large number of circuit boards. Copper and nickel are widely used in circuit boards, wires and cables, and electroplating layers of electronic equipment due to their excellent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. Copper and nickel are important strategic resources. Recycling them can reduce dependence on primary mineral resources. Recovering copper and nickel from metal waste in electronic waste has significant economic benefits, and the recycling cost is usually lower than the mining cost of primary minerals. Therefore, pyrometallurgy or wet leaching methods are often used to recover heavy metals from these wastes.

[0004] Among them, wet leaching is the extraction of metals by leaching with chemical solutions. Generally, copper and nickel are dissolved from waste by acid leaching, and then separated and recovered by electrolysis or precipitation. The metal recovery rate of wet leaching is high and it is suitable for treating low-grade waste containing metals such as copper and nickel. However, after acid leaching, the acid leaching solution contains a large amount of other metal ions in addition to copper and nickel. Therefore, the solid matter directly precipitated by electrolysis and precipitation also contains other metals, resulting in poor recovery of copper and nickel. Therefore, a method for recovering heavy metals from metal waste is needed to improve the recovery rate of copper and nickel to address the shortcomings of the above-mentioned prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a method for recovering heavy metals from metal waste.

[0006] A method for recovering heavy metals from metal waste comprises the following steps:

[0007] S1: Preparation of silicotungstate complex

[0008] Prepare sodium metasilicate solution and sodium tungstate solution, mix the two solutions, and then add potassium chloride to prepare silicotungstate;

[0009] S2: Preparation of heteropolyacid powder

[0013] S4: Resin adsorption method for recovery of heavy metals from metal waste

[0014] The metal waste is crushed and immersed in water, and then soaked in concentrated sulfuric acid to prepare a mixed solution containing heavy metals. A resin heteropolyacid composite material is added to the mixed solution containing heavy metals, and then an acetic acid-ammonium acetate buffer is added, shaken, and washed. The washed resin is then desorbed to obtain a heavy metal filtrate. Sodium hydroxide is added to the heavy metal filtrate until a precipitate is generated to obtain a heavy metal hydroxide product.

[0018] Furthermore, step S2 of preparing heteropolyacid powder comprises the following steps:

[0019] 0.5-1 parts by mass of silicotungstate and 0.1-0.3 parts by mass of potassium acetate are added to 80-85 parts by mass of deionized water, and the pH value is adjusted to 6.5. Then, 0.3-0.5 parts by mass of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide and 0.2-0.4 parts by mass of tetrabutylammonium bromide are dissolved in 60-65 parts by mass of chloroform. The two solutions are mixed and stirred at a speed of 6000-7000 r / min for 1-1.5 hours, and then centrifuged at a speed of 10000-11000 r / min for 5-8 minutes. Then, the liquid is extracted and separated, the aqueous phase is removed, the organic phase is retained, and the organic phase is distilled and dried at 80-85°C for 4-5 hours to obtain a heteropolyacid powder.

[0020] Furthermore, step S3 of preparing the resin heteropolyacid composite material comprises the following steps:

[0022] S3.2: Dissolve 20-25 parts by mass of heteropolyacid powder in 100-105 parts by mass of deionized water and ultrasonically treat for 20-25 minutes. Then add 2-3 parts by mass of treated resin, place in a constant temperature water bath at 50-60°C, and keep stirring to react for 24-25 hours. Then remove the filtrate by suction, wash with deionized water 3 times, and then dry at 60-65°C for 3-4 hours to obtain a resin heteropolyacid composite material.

[0023] Furthermore, step S4, the resin adsorption method for recovering heavy metals from metal waste, comprises the following steps:

[0024] S4.1: Crush the metal waste and immerse it in water. Stir for 2-3 hours. Then add concentrated sulfuric acid three times the mass of the system and soak for 12-13 hours. Then filter to remove the precipitate. Then add sodium hydroxide solution to adjust the pH to 5-6 to obtain a mixed solution containing heavy metals.

[0025] S4.2: Add 1-2 parts by mass of a resin heteropolyacid composite material to 5-10 parts by mass of a mixed solution containing heavy metals, and then add 1-2 parts by mass of an acetic acid-ammonium acetate buffer solution. Set the water bath temperature to 60-65°C and the oscillation speed to 600-650 r / min for 50-70 min using a constant temperature water bath oscillator. After the oscillation is completed, filter out the filtrate, wash the resin three times with acetic acid-ammonium acetate buffer, then transfer the washed resin to a conical flask, add 50-60 parts by mass of a nitric acid solution, seal and oscillate for 50-70 min, and heat in a water bath to 60-65°C for desorption. After desorption, filter with a filter membrane to obtain a heavy metal filtrate;

[0027] Furthermore, the mass fraction of the hydrochloric acid solution is 5-6%.

[0028] Furthermore, the mass fraction of the sodium hydroxide solution is 2-4%.

[0029] Furthermore, the acetic acid-ammonium acetate buffer solution is prepared by mixing acetic acid and ammonium acetate in a mass ratio of 5:7-8 and then adjusting the pH value to 4.8-5.2 with acetic acid.

[0030] Furthermore, the concentration of concentrated sulfuric acid is 85 wt %.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0032] 1. The present invention can prepare silicotungsten composite salts under relatively mild conditions through the reaction of sodium metasilicate, sodium tungstate and potassium chloride. The operation is simple and the conditions are easy to control. The silicotungsten composite salts have abundant active sites and a large specific surface area. The surface of the silicotungsten composite salts has a negative charge and can adsorb positively charged heavy metal ions through electrostatic action. At the same time, the oxygen atoms in the silicotungsten composite salts can form stable complexes with copper and nickel ions, thereby achieving specific adsorption of copper and nickel in heavy metal ions. The silicotungsten composite salts can remain stable under acidic conditions and are suitable for use under environmental conditions after acid leaching. Moreover, compared with the traditional chemical precipitation method, the extraction of heavy metals using silicotungsten composite salts does not require the addition of a large amount of chemical reagents, thereby reducing secondary pollution.

[0033] 2. The present invention combines silicon tungsten composite with resin to prepare resin heteropolyacid composite material. The resin heteropolyacid composite material combines the high adsorption performance of silicon tungsten composite and the high specific surface area of ​​resin. The resin acts as a carrier, which can firmly load silicon tungsten composite on its surface and pores, increase the exposure of adsorption sites, and improve adsorption efficiency, thereby significantly improving the adsorption capacity of heavy metal ions. At the same time, quaternary ammonium cations are formed on the D201 resin used in the present invention under the protonation conditions of heteropolyacid, which can play an auxiliary coordination role in the adsorption process. The quaternary ammonium cations can form weaker coordination bonds with copper and nickel metal ions, further enhancing the binding ability of copper and nickel metal ions with the D201 resin. This coordination effect synergistically acts with the coordination effect of heteropolyacid to improve the adsorption capacity of copper and nickel, thereby improving the recovery rate of copper and nickel heavy metals.

[0082] Comparative Example 1:

[0083] Compared with Example 1, the difference of Comparative Example 1 is that no sodium metasilicate solution is added in step S1.2, specifically "S1.2: heat 100 parts by mass of deionized water to 90°C, add 60 parts by mass of sodium tungstate to obtain a sodium tungstate solution, and maintain the temperature of the sodium tungstate solution at 90°C, add 50 parts by mass of hydrochloric acid solution, adjust the pH value to 5 with hydrochloric acid solution, and maintain the solution temperature at 100°C for 1h, then cool to room temperature, filter, add 50 parts by mass of potassium chloride, filter and retain the filter residue, wash and dry to obtain tungstate", tungstate is used instead of silicotungstate, and the other steps remain unchanged, which is recorded as Comparative Example 1.

[0084] Comparative Example 2:

[0085] Compared with Example 1, the difference of Comparative Example 2 is that no sodium tungstate solution is added in step S1.2. Specifically, "S1.2: adjust the pH value of the prepared sodium metasilicate solution to 5 with hydrochloric acid solution, maintain the solution temperature at 100°C for 1 hour, then cool to room temperature, filter, add 50 parts by mass of potassium chloride, filter and retain the filter residue, wash and dry to obtain silicate". Silicate is used instead of tungsten silicotungstate, and the other steps remain unchanged, which is recorded as Comparative Example 2.

[0086] Comparative Example 3:

[0087] Compared with Example 1, the difference of Comparative Example 3 is that, in step S4, no resin heteropolyacid composite material is added but heteropolyacid powder is directly added, specifically "S4.2: 1 part by mass of heteropolyacid powder is added to 5 parts by mass of a mixed solution containing heavy metals, and then 1 part by mass of acetic acid-ammonium acetate buffer is added, and the water bath temperature is set to 60°C and the oscillation speed is 600r / min through a constant temperature water bath oscillator, and the time is 50min. After the oscillation is completed, the filtrate is filtered out, and the filter residue is added to sodium hydroxide to react to obtain a heavy metal hydroxide product", which is recorded as Comparative Example 3.

[0088] The copper and nickel contents in the mixed solution containing heavy metals in step S4.1 were detected, and the copper and nickel contents in the heavy metal hydroxide products were then tested, thereby calculating the copper and nickel recovery rates, as shown in Table 1.

[0089] Copper recovery rate = (copper content in heavy metal hydroxide * weight of heavy metal hydroxide) / (copper content in mixed solution containing heavy metals * weight of mixed solution containing heavy metals) * 100%.

[0090] Nickel recovery rate = (nickel content in heavy metal hydroxide * weight of heavy metal hydroxide) / (nickel content in mixed solution containing heavy metals * weight of mixed solution containing heavy metals) * 100%.

[0091] Table 1 Recovery rate statistics

[0092]

[0093] As can be seen from Table 1, the copper recovery rate of Examples 1-3 is above 93%, and the nickel recovery rate is 90%, while the copper recovery rates of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are only 78% and 76%, and the nickel recovery rates are only 72% and 70%, respectively. This indicates that the acidic salts formed by using sodium metasilicate or sodium tungstate alone have fewer active sites and are not as effective in adsorbing heavy metal ions as the combination of the two. After the combination of the two, the contact with heavy metal ions can be further enhanced by using a resin load. Therefore, the copper recovery rate of Comparative Example 3 is 84%, and the nickel recovery rate is 79%, which are higher than those of Comparative Examples 1-2, but not as good as those of Examples 1-3.

[0094] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art may modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by one of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and technical principles disclosed herein are intended to be covered by the claims of the present invention.
