Description

本発明は、部品付プリント基板の処理方法及び部品付プリント基板からの有価金属の回収方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for processing a printed circuit board with parts and a method for recovering valuable metals from the printed circuit board with parts.

プリント基板、部品を搭載したプリント基板、及びこれらの製造工程で発生する成形残から銅滓などの有価金属を回収する方法が提案されている。 There have been proposed methods for recovering valuable metals such as copper slag from printed circuit boards, printed circuit boards on which components are mounted, and molding residues generated in these manufacturing processes.

例えば、特許文献1には、処理対象物を粗粉砕し、続けて圧縮力やせん断力などの外力を加えて微粉砕し、微粉砕物を金属分などの比重の大きな物質を多く含む部分及び樹脂などの比重の小さな物質を多く含む部分の比重差を使用して分離し、さらに導電体を多く含む部分と、絶縁体を多く含む部分とに静電分離することにより、有価金属を回収する方法が開示されている。 For example, in Patent Document 1, a portion to be treated is roughly pulverized, and then an external force such as a compressive force or a shearing force is applied to pulverize the pulverized material, and the pulverized material contains a large amount of a substance having a large specific gravity such as a metal component. Valuable metals are recovered by separating using the difference in specific gravity of the part containing a large amount of a substance having a small specific gravity such as resin, and then electrostatically separating the part containing a large amount of conductor and the part containing a large amount of insulator. The method is disclosed.

表2に示すように、実施例2〜7において、得られた粉体物の平均粒径(D50)は、200〜360μmとなり、プリント基板屑を粉状に粉砕することができた。また、目視にて、プリント基板屑が良好に粉砕され、かつ、有価金属と基板層とが十分に剥離されていることが確認された。 As shown in Table 2, in Examples 2 to 7, the average particle size (D50) of the obtained powder was 200 to 360 μm, and the printed circuit board waste could be pulverized into powder. Further, it was visually confirmed that the printed circuit board waste was satisfactorily crushed and that the valuable metal and the substrate layer were sufficiently peeled off.

風力選別機を用いて、上記の粉砕処理により得られた粉体物から銅滓及び樹脂の回収を行った。なお、粉体物に含まれる銅品位、銅量はICP法にて測定して評価した。 Using a wind power sorter, copper slag and resin were recovered from the powder obtained by the above pulverization treatment. The copper grade and the amount of copper contained in the powder were measured and evaluated by the ICP method.

実施例2から実施例7で得られた合計の粉体物184kgには、50kgのCuが含まれていたが、56kgの銅滓と128kgの樹脂に分離された。
回収された樹脂成分の銅品位は5%未満であり、銅滓と樹脂とを有効に分離でき、また、高い回収率で銅滓成分が得られることが明らかとなった。
The total powder material obtained in Examples 2 to 7 contained 50 kg of Cu, but was separated into 56 kg of copper slag and 128 kg of resin.
It was clarified that the copper grade of the recovered resin component was less than 5%, the copper slag and the resin could be effectively separated, and the copper slag component could be obtained with a high recovery rate.

以上、本発明の実施例について詳述したが、本発明は係る特定の実施例に限定されるものではなく、特許請求の範囲に記載された本発明の要旨の範囲内において、種々の変形・変更が可能である。 Although the examples of the present invention have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the specific examples, and various modifications and modifications are made within the scope of the gist of the present invention described in the claims.
