Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for extracting gold and / or silver and / or at least one platinum metal from at least one starting material.
- Gold, silver and platinum metals are essential raw materials. They can be recovered from valuable waste, for example as part of catalyst materials or from electronic devices, pyrometallurgical or hydrometallurgical. The pyrometallurgical recovery takes place by removing the scrap metals
- metals to be recovered brought into an aqueous solution by complex formation.
- An example of such a process is alkaline cyanide leaching for gold mining. This process is carried out at very high pH values, i.e. using aggressive alkalis.
- the complexing agent used, cyanide is very toxic, making this process too dangerous
- the pH of a cyanide-containing solution can be increased by the absorption of carbon dioxide from the ambient air
- Platinum metals are understood to mean the light platinum metals ruthenium, rhodium and palladium and the heavy platinum metals iridium and platinum. Be under scrap metal
- the at least one starting material which contains gold and / or silver and / or at least one platinum metal, is introduced into an aqueous solution which contains at least one nitrile.
- the nitrile is selected in particular from the group consisting of acetonitrile, isobutyronitrile and propionitrile, with acetonitrile being particularly preferred. Be in the aqueous solution
- hydroxyl radicals By reacting the hydroxyl radicals with the nitrile, just as many cyanides (ions or radicals) can be generated in situ as are necessary to bring the metal to be extracted into solution.
- the hydroxyl radicals can act on the metal as
- Oxidizing agents act. This means that it is not necessary to work with large excesses of cyanides, nor is it necessary to use large amounts of strong alkalis.
- the hydroxyl radicals are generated by introducing ozone into the solution. This can react with water to form oxygen and hydroxyl radicals, the reaction being carried out in particular photocatalytically.
- the ozone required for this can be generated, for example, by corona discharges or electrochemically.
- the solution preferably contains 0.1 mol per liter to 1.0 mol per liter of at least one alkali metal hydroxide, in particular sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. Due to the targeted formation of cyanides (ions or radicals) and the oxidizing effect of the hydroxyl radicals, this amount of alkali hydroxide is sufficient to effectively prevent the formation of gaseous hydrogen cyanide. Furthermore, in this embodiment of the method it is preferred that the ozone is introduced into the solution through a porous diffuser below the starting material. In this way it flows around the starting material and the formation of hydroxyl radicals takes place near the surface of the
- the solution flows in the same direction as the starting material as the ozone. This way, fresh solution is enriched with ozone before it
- the hydroxyl radicals are generated in the solution by a Fenton reaction.
- the Fenton reaction is an iron salt catalyzed reaction of hydrogen peroxide in acidic solution.
- the solution can in particular contain Fenton's reagent, a sulfuric acid mixture of hydrogen peroxide and an iron salt.
- Iron (II) sulfate is particularly suitable as the iron salt.
- Electro-Fenton reaction requires a strongly acidic solution in order to neutralize the hydroxyl anions formed
- a combination of the Electro-Fenton reaction with a Photo-Fenton reaction can also generate the hydroxyl radicals in a weakly acidic solution, for which the solution preferably contains formic acid. This reduces the risk of the formation of gaseous hydrocyanic acid due to the release of cyanide ions from cyanometallic complexes.
- the solution contains at least 0.1 mol per liter of the at least one nitrile in order to provide a sufficiently large source for the generation of cyanides (ions or radicals).
- the solution contains at least one substance which is selected from the group consisting of alcohols, surfactants and Activated carbon.
- alcohols the short-chain alcohols methanol, ethanol and isopropanol are preferred.
- surfactants the alcohols bring about improved wetting of the at least one starting material by the aqueous solution.
- the activated carbon has a large surface on which the formation of hydroxyl radicals can take place.
- the solution is irradiated with UV light.
- UV light preferably has a wavelength of less than 310 nm.
- the wavelength of the UV light used is preferably less than 580 nm.
- Figure 1 shows schematically a reactor in which a method according to an embodiment of the invention takes place.
- FIG. 2 shows schematically another reactor in which a method according to another exemplary embodiment of the invention takes place.
- Figure 1 shows how in an embodiment of the invention from a
- Starting material 10 which in the present case is a printed circuit board, gold can be detached from a nickel substrate. This is for this
- aqueous solution 20 which is stored in a reactor 21. Fresh solution is continuously fed in through an inlet opening 22, which is arranged below the starting material 10 on the wall of the reactor 21, while solution enriched with cyano complexes of gold is passed through a Above the starting material 10 in the wall of the reactor 21 arranged outlet opening 23 is derived.
- the aqueous solution 20 contains im
- Ozone 30 is introduced into the reactor 21 through a porous diffuser 31 which is arranged in the reactor 21 below the starting material 10 and below the inlet opening 22. It mixes with the fresh solution 20, which is passed through the inlet opening 22 into reactor 21, and flows around the starting material 10.
- the reactor 21 consists of a transparent material and is illuminated from the outside by means of a UV lamp 40 with light with a wavelength of less than 310 nm irradiated. According to formula 1, the ozone photocatalytically forms oxygen and hydroxyl radicals with water molecules: (Formula 1)
- a mixture 32 of unreacted ozone and the oxygen formed leaves the reactor 21 through a gas outlet 24 on its top.
- hydroxyl radicals react with the acetonitrile to form cyanogen radicals to form methanol. These oxidize metallic gold
- hydroxyl radicals according to formula 3 can themselves oxidize gold to gold (l) hydroxide on the metal surface. This is highly reactive and reacts with the acetonitrile to form methanol to gold (l) cyanide:
- the gold (l) cyanide goes into solution and leaves the reactor through the
- a reactor 21 is used, as shown in FIG. This differs from the reactor according to FIG. 1 in that the porous diffuser 31 for introducing ozone 30 and the gas outlet opening 24 are dispensed with. Instead, an electrical energy source 40 is provided, which is connected to two electrodes 51, 52 which protrude below the starting material 10 into the reactor 21.
- the aqueous solution 20 additionally contains iron (II) sulfate and before it is introduced through the inlet opening 22 through a line (not shown) it is continuously enriched with hydrogen peroxide by formation on a cathode. Instead of 0.5 mol / l
- the Photo-Fenton reaction causes both a regeneration of the iron (II) cations oxidized in the Electro-Fenton reaction by reduction and a neutralization of the hydroxyl anions generated there, so that the pH of the solution 20 does not change.
- the hydroxyl radicals generated in the two Fenton reactions then react as in the first embodiment the process according to formulas 2 and 3 and bring gold in the form of gold (l) cyanide in solution. Removing the cyanide with gold (l)
