Copper Leaching

<p>In this research, the selective leaching of copper from waste printed circuit boards (PCBs) using glycine as a complexing agent was investigated. PCBs were pulverized and sieved, which allowed obtaining a PCBs powder of particle size fraction ≤ 1mm. The PCBs powder has been characterized by several techniques before and after leaching. In order to understand the copper extraction process, the reaction mechanisms, and to determine the optimal leaching parameters, the effects of a range of parameters during copper leaching were investigated, including leaching time, solid-to-liquid ratio, mechanical stirring rate, leaching temperature and glycine concentration. Copper leaching from PCBs waste powder was identified as a complex four-stage gas-liquid-solid process that is carried out slowly under ambient conditions. Glycine shows a very significant selectivity for copper during leaching process allowing dissolving copper from PCBs waste with a percentage of 92.8% under ambient conditions.</p>

Recycling of metallic fractions from waste printed circuit boards (PCBs) using gravity separation and hydrometallurgy was investigated. The obtained research fruits were listed as follows: (1) When being pulverized to finer than 0.4mm, waste PCBs could be generally dissociated from plastics. (2) Shaking table was shown to be suitable for processing pulverized PCBs. Pulverized PCBs containing 6.97% copper was enriched to 33.55% in a single operation and the copper recovery was 90.3% in the best size range of separation. (3) Pressure oxidation leaching was shown to be effective for separating copper from aluminum and tin. The leaching extraction of aluminum and tin were 86.6% and 96.3%, copper extraction was 1% or less under the optimal conditions.

According to the properties of bioleaching solutions of printed circuit boards (PCBs), copper(Ⅱ) in the leaching solution were recovery by solvent extraction with N902 and RE609. The influence of equilibration time，extractant concentration，O/A ratios，pH value on copper(Ⅱ) extraction and sulphuric acid concentration on copper(Ⅱ) stripping had been studied. Extraction of copper increased with increasing extractant concentration with both the extractants. More than 97.45% of copper can be extracted from a typical bioleaching solution of PCBs after copper extraction was carried out using 10% N902 diluted in kerosene at O/A ratio of 1:1, while 97.14% of copper can be extracted using 20% RE609 diluted in kerosene at O/A ratio of 1:1. The stripping of copper loaded N902 and RE609 increased with increasing H2SO4 concentration, but stripping of the latter was lower than the former.More than 93.57% and 90.29%of copper can be stripped from the loaded N902 and RE609 stripped at 1:1 phase ratio with 1.8 M H2SO4 in a single stage.
