Description

A method and device for extracting copper and tin source material from copper and / or tin oxalate Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of environmentally friendly waste treatment, recycling and reuse, and particularly relates to a method and device for extracting copper and tin source materials from copper and / or tin oxalates. Background Art

[0002] The etching process in the production of circuit boards is to remove the unnecessary copper on the copper-clad board by chemically corroding it with an etching solution, so that the required circuit pattern is formed. Commonly used etching solutions are acidic etching solutions and ammonia-alkaline etching solutions. In the micro-etching process, micro-etching solutions are used to corrode and thin the surface of the copper layer or roughen the copper surface. Both etching waste liquid and micro-etching waste liquid contain copper ions formed by the dissolution of metallic copper. When the etching solution is used to etch the circuit pattern preset on the copper-clad board, the circuit pattern is plated with a layer of tin metal as an anti-corrosion layer, and the exposed copper metal on the copper-clad board that is not protected by the tin layer reacts chemically with the etching solution and is corroded and removed. After the etching is completed, the original preset circuit pattern and the tin metal anti-corrosion layer on the through-hole need to be stripped off using a nitric acid-type tin stripping solution, which produces a nitric acid-type tin stripping waste liquid containing tin ions, which usually also contains a small amount of copper ions. The common acidic and micro-etching solutions mentioned above all come in both iron-containing and iron-free formulations. Examples include acidic copper chloride and ferric chloride etching solutions, acidic copper chloride etching solutions, sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide micro-etching solutions, and micro-etching solutions combining sulfuric acid with ferric sulfate and persulfate. Furthermore, the electroless tinning process also produces tin-containing wastewater. With the expansion of large-scale production, these processes result in manufacturers discharging large quantities of tin- and / or copper-containing wastewater daily.

[0003] Among existing technologies for recycling and reusing nitric acid-based tin stripping wastewater or chemical tin precipitation wastewater, one method involves using oxalic acid to recover tin metal. Alternatively, oxalic acid is used to recover copper oxalate and regenerate etching replenisher solution from circuit board acidic etching wastewater. These methods involve adding oxalic acid to the wastewater to cause precipitation of stannous oxalate and / or copper oxalate. The reactants are then subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain a filter residue of stannous oxalate and / or copper oxalate. The filtrate obtained by the above method is mainly composed of nitric acid, which is obtained by reacting nitric acid-type tin stripping waste liquid with oxalic acid and performing solid-liquid separation. After adding concentrated nitric acid and additives for preparation, it becomes regenerated nitric acid-type tin stripping liquid and is returned to the tin stripping production line for use; and the filtrate obtained by reacting acidic etching waste liquid with oxalic acid and performing solid-liquid separation is mainly composed of hydrochloric acid. After removing the oxalic acid impurities in the filtrate, it can be returned to the acidic etching production line for recycling; after chemical precipitation tin waste liquid reacts with oxalic acid for solid-liquid separation to obtain tin salts, the filtrate is treated for environmental protection and discharged in compliance with standards. The above method of recovering metal salts using oxalic acid is simple, has low energy consumption, and has a high waste reuse rate. Therefore, more circuit board manufacturers have begun to adopt this method.

[0004] Because copper oxalate and stannous oxalate are relatively stable, few chemicals react with them under mild conditions. Furthermore, their applications are very limited, resulting in a narrow market. Therefore, copper oxalate and stannous oxalate need to be further processed to convert them into widely applicable copper and / or tin oxides and / or hydroxides, allowing them to serve as copper and tin source materials in a wider range of industrial production processes.

[0005] However, the current treatment method for the copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate obtained from the wastewater treatment method mentioned above is mostly a high-temperature decomposition method, with a reaction temperature of at least 300°C. The chemical reaction is as follows:

[0006] A. Closed high temperature treatment equipment: SnC2O4→Sn+2CO2↑ CuC2O4→Cu+2CO2↑

[0007] B. Open high temperature treatment equipment: SnC2O4+O2→SnO2+2CO2↑ SnC2O4+O2+C→Sn+3CO2↑ 2CuC2O4+O2→2CuO+4CO2↑

[0008] Because high-temperature processes pose fire and burn hazards, and because pyrolysis consumes a lot of energy, most PCB manufacturers are reluctant to use pyrolysis to process copper and / or tin oxalates in their original production plants. Consequently, PCB manufacturers are eagerly awaiting the introduction of new processes that can process copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate to produce copper or tin materials at room temperature and pressure. This would enable them to improve safety, reduce pollution, and achieve cost savings and increased efficiency.

[0009] Summary of the Invention

[0010] The first objective of the present invention is to provide a method for extracting copper and tin source materials from copper and / or tin oxalates, using milder chemical reaction conditions to produce copper and tin source materials for use as production raw materials. The second objective is to provide an apparatus for extracting copper and tin source materials from copper and / or tin oxalates.

[0011] The present invention achieves the above-mentioned purpose through the following technical solutions.

[0012] A method for extracting copper and tin source materials from copper and / or tin oxalates, comprising the following steps:

[0013] (1) treating copper and / or tin oxalates by at least one of the following methods:

[0014] Method 1: allowing copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate to react chemically with hypochlorite in an aqueous solution containing hypochlorite to generate new copper sludge and / or tin sludge precipitate, with carbon dioxide gas escaping during the reaction process;

[0015] Method 2: allowing copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate to undergo a chemical reaction in a solution containing an alkaline substance to generate new copper mud and / or tin mud precipitate, wherein the alkaline substance includes a potassium-containing alkaline substance;

[0016] (2) performing solid-liquid separation on the solid-liquid mixture after the reaction in step (1) to obtain a filter residue A and a filtrate B, wherein the filter residue A is new copper mud and / or tin mud.

[0017] The stannous oxalate described in step (1) is produced by reacting a tin-containing waste liquid with oxalic acid, or by reacting a filtrate obtained by filtering the tin-containing waste liquid to remove tin dioxide solids with oxalic acid. The copper oxalate described is produced by adding oxalic acid to a copper-containing waste liquid, mainly a circuit board acid etching waste liquid or a micro-etching waste liquid. The copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate described above are both insoluble substances and can therefore be removed from the reaction solution by solid-liquid separation.

[0018] In the first embodiment of step (1), the hypochlorite used as the oxidant is sodium hypochlorite and / or potassium hypochlorite. In the second embodiment of step (1), the potassium-containing alkaline substance is one or more of potassium hydroxide, potassium carbonate, and potassium bicarbonate.

[0019] In step (2), the filter residue A is tin and / or copper oxides and / or hydroxides. It can be directly reused as a production raw material, or it can be selected according to the technical requirements of the recycling process to produce tin metal, tin salts, copper metal, copper oxide, cuprous oxide, and copper salts and then used as a production raw material. For example, tin salts, copper salts, and copper oxide can be reused in the electroplating production line.

[0020] In the first method of step (1), the oxalate of stannous oxalate and / or copper oxalate is oxidized by sodium hypochlorite and / or potassium hypochlorite, and the following redox reaction occurs: SnC2O4+ClO - +H2O→Cl - +Sn(OH)2↓+2CO2↑ CuC2O4+ClO - +H2O→Cl - +Cu(OH)2↓+2CO2↑

[0021] Therefore, in Method 1, the newly generated tin sludge precipitate is stannous hydroxide, which will convert to stannous oxide when the pH value of the reaction solution is high. When stannous hydroxide and stannous oxide are immersed in a reaction solution containing excessive hypochlorite for a long time, tin oxide (SnO2) will be generated. In Method 1, the newly generated copper sludge precipitate is copper hydroxide, which will convert to copper oxide when the pH value of the reaction solution is high. Therefore, when Method 1 is adopted, the main component of the filter residue A obtained in step (2) is at least one of stannous hydroxide, copper hydroxide, stannous oxide, tin oxide, and copper oxide, and the filtrate B is a solution containing chloride salts that is discharged after environmental treatment.

[0022] During the reaction process of the above-mentioned method 1, the ratio between the amount of copper hydroxide and copper oxide products generated varies with the pH value of the reaction solution, the length of reaction time, the temperature of the reaction solution and other factors in the process. The higher the pH value and temperature of the reaction solution, the more likely the new copper mud product generated by the reaction is to be copper oxide. Therefore, the appropriate reaction temperature and reaction solution pH can be determined based on practical experience by detecting the composition of the copper mud. Preferably, in method 1, in order to make the new copper mud product generated mainly copper hydroxide, the pH value of the reaction solution is controlled to be 3.5≤≤8.5 during the reaction. Preferably, in method 1, in order to make the new copper mud product generated mainly copper oxide, the pH value of the reaction solution is controlled to be ≥10 during the reaction.

[0023] The oxidant used in the chemical reaction in method 1 is preferably sodium hypochlorite solution to save costs.

[0024] Preferably, in Method 1, an oxidation-reduction potentiometer (ORP meter) is used to control the addition of hypochlorite during the oxidation process, or a combination of a pH meter and an ORP meter is used to control the addition of a pH adjuster and hypochlorite, respectively, so that the reaction solution maintains stable control parameters and reacts in the direction of the target product set by the process. The pH adjuster is preferably one or more of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium bicarbonate.

[0025] In the second embodiment of step (1), stannous oxalate and / or copper oxalate are mixed with a solution containing an alkaline substance containing potassium to react, and at least one of the following chemical reactions mainly occurs: SnC2O4+2KOH→K2C2O4+H2O+SnO↓ CuC2O4+2KOH→K2C2O4+H2O+CuO↓ SnC2O4+2K2CO3+H2O→K2C2O4+2KHCO3+SnO↓ CuC2O4+2K2CO3+H2O→K2C2O4+2KHCO3+CuO↓ SnC2O4+2KHCO3+H2O→K2C2O4+H2CO3+SnO↓ CuC2O4+2KHCO3+H2O→K2C2O4+H2CO3+CuO↓

[0026] In the second embodiment of step (1), the alkaline substance participating in the reaction is a potassium-containing alkaline substance alone, or a potassium-containing alkaline substance and a sodium-containing alkaline substance are used simultaneously. The sodium-containing alkaline substance is one or more of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and sodium bicarbonate. Preferably, the alkaline substance is potassium hydroxide, or potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide are used simultaneously. More preferably, the alkaline substance is potassium hydroxide.

[0027] Therefore, the main components of the filter residue A obtained in step (2) of the second method are stannous oxide and / or copper oxide, and the main components of the filtrate B are potassium oxalate or potassium oxalate and sodium oxalate, which can be reused as raw materials for other production.

[0028] When the alkaline substances involved in the reaction of the above-mentioned method 2 include sodium-containing alkaline substances, i.e., sodium hydroxide and / or sodium carbonate and / or sodium bicarbonate, sodium oxalate will be generated. Due to the low solubility of sodium oxalate, when a large amount of sodium oxalate is generated in the reaction solution, it will reach saturation in the solution and precipitate sodium oxalate solids, which will co-precipitate with stannous oxide and / or copper oxide. Although washing stannous oxide and / or copper oxide with water in the subsequent process can remove most of the sodium oxalate impurities therein, the problem of stannous oxide and / or copper oxide encapsulating sodium oxalate during the co-precipitation process not only increases the processing steps, but also increases the difficulty of purifying the copper source or tin source material. Therefore, in the method 2 of step (1), sodium-containing alkaline substances cannot be used alone to react to avoid excessive sodium oxalate generation, which will lead to a large amount of sodium oxalate co-precipitated with stannous oxide and / or copper oxide. In addition, the use of sodium-containing alkaline substances alone will also result in a low sodium oxalate concentration in the filtrate after solid-liquid separation due to the low solubility of sodium oxalate, resulting in a reduced value of the oxalic acid material in the filtrate for reuse.

[0029] In contrast, potassium oxalate has a high solubility and is not easily precipitated during the reaction. Therefore, using potassium-containing alkaline substances as part or all of the alkaline substances in the second method can have the following advantages: (1) reducing the washing work of stannous oxide and / or copper oxide, (2) effectively preventing stannous oxide and / or copper oxide from encapsulating sodium oxalate, and (3) the filtrate obtained after solid-liquid separation has a high oxalate content and therefore has a high recycling value.

[0030] Preferably, when the potassium-containing alkaline substance and the sodium-containing alkaline substance are simultaneously used for the reaction in the second method of step (1), the amount of sodium ions added to the reaction solution does not exceed 2 mol / L, more preferably does not exceed 1 mol / L.

[0031] In the second method of step (1), copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate are subjected to a chemical reaction in a solution containing an alkaline substance. Preferably, the reaction temperature of the reaction solution is controlled within the range of 30°C to 100°C, and / or the pH value of the reaction solution is adjusted to ≥10 during the reaction. The above preferred method can accelerate the reaction of method 2.

[0032] The present invention can be improved as follows: when the oxalate reacted in step (1) is a mixture of stannous oxalate and copper oxalate, in order to separate the copper compound and the tin compound in the reaction product, filter residue A, the hydroxide precipitation points corresponding to different pH values ​​in the metal salt solution can be used to separate the copper-tin mixed compound. First, the filter residue A is dissolved in an acidic solution to obtain an acidic mixed solution containing tin salt and copper salt; an alkaline compound is added to the obtained acidic mixed solution containing tin salt and copper salt to adjust its pH value, and the low pH precipitation point of stannous hydroxide is used to control the solution to produce stannous hydroxide precipitate, and a solid-liquid separation method is used to separate the stannous hydroxide solid from the acidic copper salt solution. The acidic solution is a solution containing at least one of hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and formic acid, preferably containing sulfuric acid. Preferably, the alkaline compound is at least one selected from sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium hydroxide, potassium carbonate, and potassium bicarbonate. The suitable pH value for separating stannous hydroxide from the acidic copper salt solution is adjusted to a range of 0.9 to 4.17, preferably a pH value of 2 to 3.2.

[0033] After removing the tin salt from the acidic solution containing the tin and copper salts, the resulting acidic copper salt solution is a mixture containing non-heavy metal salts and copper salts. To obtain a pure copper source material, an alkaline compound is added to the mixture until the pH of the solution reaches >3.5, causing copper hydroxide and / or copper oxide precipitates to form in the solution. The reaction mixture is subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain a filter residue of copper hydroxide and / or copper oxide, and the filtrate is disposed of for environmental protection.

[0034] The present invention can be improved as follows: when the second method is adopted in step (1), the filtrate B obtained in step (2) is further mixed with a compound containing at least one of calcium, manganese, zinc, and ferrous elements to produce the desired oxalate or other products according to market demand. Preferably, the compound is selected from one or more of ferrous salts, calcium salts, and calcium hydroxide. More preferably, ferrous sulfate or calcium hydroxide is used. Taking the reaction of potassium oxalate with ferrous salt, manganese salt, calcium salt, calcium hydroxide and zinc salt as an example, the chemical reaction formulas of the above mixed reactions are as follows: K2C2O4+FeSO4→FeC2O4↓+K2SO4, K2C2O4+CaCl2→CaC2O4↓+2KCl, K2C2O4+MnSO4→MnC2O4↓+K2SO4, K2C2O4+Ca(OH)2→CaC2O4↓+2KOH, K2C2O4+CaCO3→CaC2O4↓+K2CO3, K2C2O4+Ca(HCO3)2→CaC2O4↓+2KHCO3, K2C2O4+ZnCl2→ZnC2O4↓+2KCl.

[0035] When ferrous sulfate is mixed with filtrate B for a reaction, a high-value ferrous oxalate product and potassium sulfate, a highly demanded agricultural fertilizer product, can be produced, thereby improving production economic benefits. When one or more of calcium hydroxide, calcium carbonate, and calcium bicarbonate are mixed with filtrate B for a reaction, a calcium oxalate product is produced. The regenerated alkaline substance can be reused in the next round of copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate treatment, achieving recycling, being more environmentally friendly, and saving costs.

[0036] In step (1), when the substance to be treated contains stannous oxalate, whether using method 1 or method 2, because tin is an amphoteric metallic element, when the alkalinity of the reaction solution is high, soluble stannates will be generated, reducing the recovery rate of the new tin sludge precipitate. Preferably, the pH value of the reaction solution when treating stannous oxalate in step (1) is ≤14 to avoid the formation of soluble stannates.

[0037] The present invention can be improved as follows: the filter residue A is washed with water to obtain pure tin and / or copper hydroxide and / or oxide, thereby reducing the impurity content therein and making it more convenient for use. The waste liquid from washing the filter residue A is treated in an environmentally friendly manner and then discharged.

[0038] The present invention can also be improved as follows: the chlorine gas produced when the acidic etching waste liquid is electrolyzed is used to prepare a hypochlorite solution, and applied to the chemical reaction of method one in step (1). Specifically: the acidic etching waste liquid is electrolyzed, chlorine gas is generated at the electrolytic anode, and the produced chlorine gas is introduced into an alkaline solution to prepare hypochlorite. In the prior art, there is an electrolytic cell that electrolytically oxidizes the acidic etching waste liquid to produce chlorine gas, or at the same time, the electrolytic cathode is used to electrolyze metallic copper. This improvement saves costs and can consume excess chlorine gas electrolyzed during electrolysis. Preferably, the alkaline solution contains at least one alkaline compound selected from sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium bicarbonate. The chemical reaction principle for preparing hypochlorite is as follows. 2NaOH+Cl2→NaClO+NaCl+H2O 2KOH+Cl2→KClO+KCl+H2O

[0039] Preferably, copper oxalate is first added directly to the alkaline solution reaction tank for producing hypochlorite. Then, an ORP meter installed in the reaction tank is used to control the amount of chlorine gas introduced into the reaction tank. The amount of alkaline compound added is also controlled to adjust the pH value of the reaction solution to meet the process requirements, so that the reaction product is mainly CuO to produce copper oxide powder. The chemical reaction is as follows: CuC2O4+ClO - +H2O→Cl - +Cu(OH)2+2CO2↑, 2Cu(OH)2+NaClO+NaOH→2NaCuO2+HCl+2H2O, 2NaCuO2+CuC2O4+H2O→3CuO+2NaOH+2CO2↑.

[0040] The present invention can also be improved as follows: the copper oxalate precipitate obtained by the reaction of the iron-containing acidic etching solution with oxalic acid is pickled at least once with hydrochloric acid and / or sulfuric acid to remove iron. Preferably, hydrogen peroxide is added to the pickling solution of the copper oxalate for pickling to reduce the generation of ferrous oxalate. Because when copper oxalate is taken from the iron-containing acidic etching solution, the filter residue of the copper oxalate will contain iron salts after solid-liquid separation, and hydrochloric acid and / or sulfuric acid can be used to clean and remove it from the copper oxalate solid. Taking the acidic copper chloride and ferric chloride etching solution as an example, its chemical reaction is as follows. 2FeCl3+H2C2O4→2FeCl2+2HCl+2CO2↑ FeCl2+H2C2O4→2HCl+FeC2O4↓

[0041] Therefore, the cupric oxalate obtained by reacting oxalic acid with acidic cupric chloride and ferric chloride etching solution contains impurities of ferrous oxalate and ferric chloride. Similarly, when cupric oxalate is taken from a mixed micro-etching solution of sulfuric acid, ferric sulfate, copper sulfate and persulfate, the filter residue of the cupric oxalate contains impurities of ferric sulfate.

[0042] The present invention also provides a device for extracting copper and tin source materials from copper and / or tin oxalates, which mainly includes: at least one hypochlorite reaction tank and / or at least one alkali solution reaction tank, and at least one solid-liquid separator.

[0043] The hypochlorite reaction tank is used for reacting copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate with hypochlorite in the above step (1) to mainly produce stannous hydroxide and / or copper hydroxide and / or copper oxide. The alkali solution reaction tank is used for reacting copper oxalate and / or stannous oxalate with a solution containing potassium-containing alkaline substances in step (1) to mainly produce stannous oxide and / or copper oxide.

[0044] The solid-liquid separator is used to separate the solid-liquid mixture during the process reaction. The solid-liquid separator is selected from at least one of a filter press, a centrifuge and a filter.

[0045] The present invention can be improved as follows: the alkali solution reaction tank is provided with a hot and cold temperature exchanger, specifically a heater, to become an alkali solution reaction tank with a heater, so that copper oxalate and / or tin oxalate react with a solution containing a potassium-containing alkaline substance under heating conditions to quickly produce stannous oxide and / or copper oxide.

[0046] The present invention can also be improved as follows: a pH meter and / or an ORP meter can be added to the hypochlorite reaction tank to control the reaction process toward the process target reactant.

[0047] The present invention can also be improved as follows: a cleaning tank is added to clean the iron-containing copper oxalate and / or the copper and / or tin compound filter residue obtained by the reaction to obtain clean copper oxalate or pure stannous hydroxide, copper hydroxide, stannous oxide, and copper oxide products.

[0048] The present invention can also be improved as follows: a temporary storage tank is added to temporarily store materials.

[0049] The present invention can also be improved as follows: a common chemical reaction tank is added for preparing the solution.

[0050] The present invention can also be improved as follows: an agitator is added to the hypochlorite reaction tank and / or the alkali solution reaction tank and / or the ordinary chemical reaction tank to uniformly stir the solution. The agitator is structurally divided into an impeller agitator and a liquid flow pump tube agitator.

[0051] The present invention can also be improved as follows: a hot and cold temperature exchanger is added to the hypochlorite reaction tank and / or the ordinary chemical reaction tank to control the temperature of the reaction liquid according to the process requirements.

[0052] The present invention can also be improved as follows: an exhaust gas processor is added to perform environmentally friendly treatment on the exhaust gas discharged from each tank.

[0053] The present invention can also be improved by adding detection sensors and an automatic detection and feeding controller to enable automated program control during the production process through data collection and processing. The sensor signal input of the automatic detection and feeding controller is connected to the sensor signal output of the detection sensor, and the control signal output of the automatic detection and feeding controller is connected to the control signal inputs of the heater, hot and cold temperature exchanger, agitator, valve, and pump within the device. The detection sensors include a thermometer, a liquid level gauge, an acidity meter, a pH meter, a hydrometer, a redox potentiometer, and a chlorine concentration meter.

[0054] The present invention can also be improved as follows: an electric furnace is added to dry the product powder obtained after solid-liquid separation.

[0055] The present invention can also be improved as follows: an overflow buffer tank is added to solve the problem of liquid flow between the tanks in the device.

[0056] The present invention can also be improved by adding an electrolytic cell, in which the chlorine produced by electrolysis using the acidic etching waste liquid as the electrolyte is used to prepare the hypochlorite solution. The electrolytic cell is provided with a separator, which is divided into an anode cell area and a cathode cell area. The separator serves to facilitate the collection and utilization of the chlorine produced by the electrolysis anode.

[0057] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0058] 1. The process of the present invention abandons the prior art method of treating copper oxalate and / or tin oxalate by high-temperature decomposition, and adopts milder chemical reaction conditions. This makes it more likely that companies will use stannous oxalate and / or copper oxalate obtained from waste liquid to produce tin or copper source materials on-site, and even reuse the obtained tin and copper source materials in their own production processes, thereby significantly reducing production costs. Compared with the existing high-temperature decomposition method, it can greatly improve production safety and reduce energy consumption.

[0059] 2. The present invention can combine the electrolysis process to produce hypochlorite solution by electrolyzing chlorine gas in the process of electrolytic copper extraction from acidic etching waste liquid, thereby reducing the processing cost of extracting tin source materials or copper source materials.

[0060] 3. The process of the present invention does not add any new pollution sources during the treatment process, and meets the requirements of environmentally friendly production processes.

[0061] 4. The process of the present invention is safe, reliable and easy to operate, with low equipment investment and operation and management costs.

[0062] 5. The present invention can utilize oxalate ions in stannous oxalate or copper oxalate to produce other oxalate products, thereby maximizing material utilization, reducing environmental pollution and saving energy. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0164] 2. Start pumps 46-1, 46-2 and 46-3 to add acidic copper chloride etching waste liquid 61 to the common chemical reaction tank 3 and the cathode and anode areas of the electrolytic tank, respectively, and add potassium hydroxide solution to the hypochlorite reaction tank 1.

[0165] 3. Start the impeller stirrer 7 and add a fixed amount of oxalic acid 17 to the constant volume of etching waste liquid in the common chemical reaction tank 3 to react and produce copper oxalate 15.

[0166] 4. The solid-liquid mixture in the ordinary chemical reaction tank 3 is separated into solid and liquid by solid-liquid separators 5-1 and 5-2. The collected copper oxalate 15 is temporarily stored in the temporary storage tank 6-2, and the filtrate 43-1 containing hydrochloric acid is drained to the tank 6-3 for temporary storage.

[0167] 5. Automatic detection and feeding controller 12 starts the electrolytic cell, causing chlorine to be electrolytically deposited at the anode and copper to be electrolytically deposited at the cathode. The electrolytic chlorine is introduced into hypochlorite reaction tank 1 to participate in the reaction. During the reaction, hot and cold temperature exchanger 9 in the cell is opened to control the reaction solution at 60° C. Potassium hydroxide solution is controlled by a pH meter to maintain the pH value of the reaction solution at pH 14. The redox potential of the reaction solution is controlled at 100 mV by an ORP meter. A fixed amount of 20 kg of copper oxalate is added to the hypochlorite reaction tank 1 in small amounts several times. The reaction time is 9 hours, and the copper oxalate 15 is oxidized to copper oxide and a trace amount of sodium percuprate.

[0168] 6. The solid-liquid mixture after the reaction in the hypochlorite reaction tank 1 is separated into solid and liquid by a filter press 5-3 and a filter 5-4 to obtain a mixture of copper oxide and a trace amount of sodium percuprate as a filter residue, which is temporarily stored in a temporary storage tank 6-4. The filtrate of the salt-containing waste liquid 43-2 is drained to a temporary storage tank 6-5 for further treatment.

[0169] 7. The operation process of the device is executed by the automatic detection and feeding controller 12 according to the pre-programmed operation, wherein the chlorine concentration detector 11-9 is used to monitor the chlorine concentration in the production workshop space.

[0170] After the seven steps above, copper oxalate is chemically reacted to produce copper oxide and sodium percolate. This process is optimized by combining the electrolysis of acidic copper chloride etching wastewater to extract copper, resulting in greater energy savings and emission reductions.

[0171] During the above production process, the hydrochloric acid waste liquid 43-1 can be used as a raw material to prepare a regenerated etching solution based on the requirements for the preparation of an acidic copper chloride etching solution and then recycled back into the etching production line. Furthermore, the resulting copper oxide product contains trace amounts of sodium percolate, which can be removed by heating with water to decompose it or by adding a reducing agent.

Use a hot / cold temperature exchanger 9 to control the operating temperature of the reaction solution to 100° C. Start the impeller agitator 7 to conduct a chemical reaction for 1 hour to produce new copper sludge precipitate and copper oxide powder.

[0185] 4. After the reaction is completed, the hot and cold temperature exchanger 9 in the alkali solution reaction tank 2 is started for cooling, and then the pump 46-1 is started to separate the reactants in the alkali solution reaction tank 2 into solid-liquid form via the solid-liquid separators 5-1 and 5-2, thereby obtaining a filter residue A and a filtrate B. The filtrate A is the crude copper oxide 22, and the filtrate B is a mixed solution of soluble potassium oxalate and potassium hydroxide.

[0186] 5. According to the process setting value of the pH meter in the ordinary chemical reaction tank 3, oxalic acid 17 is added to the ordinary chemical reaction tank 3 to neutralize the potassium hydroxide in the mixed solution therein. When the pH meter drops to the set value, the addition of oxalic acid is stopped.

[0187] 6. The potassium oxalate solution prepared in the common chemical reaction tank 3 is put into the evaporator 64 for evaporation and concentration to produce solid potassium oxalate, and the obtained potassium oxalate product is temporarily stored in the tank 6-2.
