Abstract

PURPOSE:To surely prevent the remelting of noble metals and to reduce the noble metals with high efficiency by combining a specific carbonyl compd. with a reducing agent for recovering the noble metals. CONSTITUTION:At least one kind of aluminum metal powder, zinc metal powder, alkaline boron hydride, alkali dithionite, hydrazine, and alkali hypophosphite and the carbonyl compd. are combined as the reducing agent for reducing and recovering the noble metals from the soln. of cyan system contg. noble metals. The carbonyl group in the carbonyl compd. reacts with CN ions to form cyanhydrin which is decomposed by hydrolysis to ammonia and oxyacid and, therefore, the cyanide is eventually decomposed. The aldehyde in the carbonyl compd. itself has a reduction effect and, therefore, there is an effect of preventing the oxidation as well. The aldehyde not only decomposes the cyanide in the soln. but also suppresses the oxidation effect of the oxygen dissolved from oxidizing agents and air and, therefore, the redissolving of the noble metal is surely prevented.

Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 〈産業上の利用分野〉 この発明は貴金属含有のシアン系溶液中から貴金属を還
元して回収するための還元剤に関する。
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a reducing agent for reducing and recovering a noble metal from a cyanide solution containing a noble metal.

〈従来の技術〉 貴金属を含むシアン系の溶液、例えば貴金属メツキ廃液
或いは貴金属メツキ層剥離後の剥離液等から貴金属を回

<Prior Art> The following two methods are known for recovering precious metals from a cyanide-based solution containing precious metals, such as precious metal plating waste liquid or stripping liquid after peeling off a noble metal plating layer.

第1の方法としては、アルミニウムや亜鉛の金属粉を「

The first method is to use aluminum or zinc metal powder.
There is a method in which precious metals are added to the solution as a "reducing agent" to reduce and precipitate the precious metals and recover them.

The second method is to decompose cyanide in the solution with sodium hypochlorite, and then use sodium borohydride.
"Reducing agents" such as sodium dithionite and hydrazine
There is a method in which precious metals are added to a solution and recovered by reducing and precipitating them (U.S. Pat. No. 4,092,154).
(see issue).

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> However, such conventional techniques are not necessarily satisfactory in terms of recovery efficiency and recovery workability of precious metals.

貴金属の再溶解現象は、空気中から溶は込んだ酸素の酸

That is, in the first method, since CN- ions and the like remain undecomposed in the solution, the noble metal that has been reduced and precipitated begins to dissolve again. Therefore, immediately after reduction, it is necessary to carry out a p overtreatment and separate and recover, which is disadvantageous in terms of recovery workability. It should be noted that the redissolution phenomenon of the noble metal once reduced is promoted by the oxidizing effect of oxygen introduced into the noble metal from the air, so it is difficult to completely prevent redissolution.

また、第2の方法にあっては、シアンを分解する手間が

消費量が増大する傾向にあった。
Furthermore, in the second method, it takes time and effort to decompose cyanide, and since a large amount of sodium hypochlorite is added, the amount of waste liquid remaining after precious metal recovery increases, and its post-treatment becomes troublesome. In addition, since sodium hypochlorite itself has an oxidizing effect, it is necessary to add enough reducing agent to prevent it from being canceled out by the sodium hypochlorite, which inevitably tends to increase the amount of reducing agent consumed. .

そこで、理想的な貴金属回収としては、上記の如き課題

Therefore, it can be said that the ideal precious metal recovery is one that can solve the above problems. In other words, the challenges are: ■ No special additives or processes are required to decompose cyanide.

■ いったん還元した貴金属を再溶解させない。■ Do not re-melt precious metals once reduced.

■ 貴金属を高い効率で還元できる。■ Precious metals can be reduced with high efficiency.

<Means for Solving the Problems> As a result of intensive research to achieve the above object, the inventor of the present invention has discovered that the requirements ① to ② above can be satisfied by combining a carbonyl compound with a known reducing agent.

The carbonyl group in the carbonyl compound reacts with the CN- ion to form cyanohydrin, which is hydrolyzed into ammonia and oxyacid, resulting in the decomposition of cyanide. Furthermore, among carbonyl compounds, aldehydes themselves have a reducing effect, and therefore have an antioxidant effect. Therefore, aldehyde not only decomposes cyanide in the solution, but also suppresses the oxidizing effects of oxidizing agents and oxygen dissolved in the air, thereby reliably preventing re-dissolution of the precious metal. Additionally, no special additives or processes are required to decompose cyanide, and precious metals can be reduced with high efficiency.
