Abstract

Language:

The metal-containing sludge generated from the printed circuit boards (PCBs) manufacturing has been recycled as a secondary resource of copper (Cu) rather than being treated as a hazardous solid waste. However, it should consider the complexity of processing and using of oxidizing or precipitation agents to dissolve and separate Cu from other impurities, especially iron (Fe). This study has combined the dissolution and separation step in one stage by integrated acid leaching and electrodeposition to simplify the recovery process, while maintaining the high efficiency of separation. The chemistry of acid leaching and electrodeposition of the metals demonstrated that the metals (Cu and Fe) in the sludge sample were dissolved in the H2SO4 electrolyte, and Cu could be selectively deposited on the cathode based on the different potential conditions to reduce it on the cathode. The important factors affecting the deposition of Cu were investigated, finding the optimal conditions (current density 15 mA/cm2, H2SO4 100 g/L, Cu 20 g/L, at 45 ◦C, and for 6 h) which could completely recover Cu from the electroly.
