TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sulfuric acid-hydrogen peroxide system micro-etching waste liquid recovery processing, in particular to a process method and production device for centralized recovery of copper sulfate from sulfuric acid-hydrogen peroxide system micro-etching waste liquid. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the printed circuit board and semiconductor manufacturing industry, copper etching is one of the core processes, and the sulfuric acid-hydrogen peroxide system micro-etching waste liquid is widely used due to its fast etching rate, low copper surface roughness, and good environmental protection. However, as the etching process proceeds, the concentration of copper ions in the micro-etching liquid gradually increases, and the concentrations of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide decrease, resulting in the decline of etching ability, and eventually becoming waste liquid. The sulfuric acid concentration in such micro-etching waste liquid is about 160 g / L, and direct discharge requires the use of a large amount of caustic soda for neutralization, about 130 kg of caustic soda per cubic micro-etching waste liquid. Not only does this cause waste of copper resources, but it also poses a serious environmental problem. Therefore, how to efficiently recover copper from waste liquid and achieve the recycling of micro-etching liquid has become a difficult problem that needs to be solved in the industry.
[0003] Currently, the main methods for treating sulfuric acid-hydrogen peroxide system micro-etching waste liquid include chemical precipitation, electrolytic recovery, solution extraction, and evaporation crystallization. Among them, the most common chemical precipitation method is to add sodium hydroxide or sodium sulfide to make copper ions form Cu(OH)2 or CuS precipitate. This method is simple to operate, but the precipitate sludge contains high impurities and needs further treatment, and it cannot recover sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide, which is economically poor. The electrolytic recovery method directly extracts copper from waste liquid by electrolysis, which has high copper purity, but high energy consumption and low efficiency, and hydrogen peroxide is easily decomposed during electrolysis, resulting in the inability to reuse the micro-etching liquid. Therefore, the existing recovery of such micro-etching waste liquid has the problems of resource waste and process limitations. Therefore, in view of the above problems, it is urgent to develop a method that can simultaneously recover copper resources and regenerate micro-etching liquid for reuse to maximize resource utilization.
