- Electroplating from aqueous solutions is accomplished, generally speaking, by passing an electric current through an electroplating bath solution todeposit the plating material on the workpiece.
- an electric current In order to control the quality of the plated product, it is often necessary to maintain the temperature of the bath within a narrow temperature range, generally at somewhat elevated temperatures. The passage of electric current through the bath, however, tends to raise the bath temperature and to generate fumes from it.
- the electroplating reaction usually forms gases at the electrodes. For example, in the electroplating of chromium from a chromic acid solution, large volumes of hydrogen and oxygen are given off. These gases bubble up through the bath and a spray of the plating solution is produced.
- an endless strip is introduced into and removed from the electroplating bath by means of rollers which conduct the strip through the bath and through any required rinse baths.
- the splashing which results from the workpiece entering and leaving the electroplating bath also tends to form a spray of the bath solution.
- the invention further contemplates providing an apparatus for recovering values contained in fumes emanating from the electroplating operations.
- Still another object of the invention is to provide an apparatus for recovering chemical values from rinse water which values were carried over from the electroplating operation.
- the present invention contemplates a process for recovering values contained in fumes emanating from electroplating operations including rinsing operations, while simultaneously controlling the temperature and water balance of the electroplating bath.
- the process comprises contacting the fumes with at least a portion of the process solution to dissolve therein values contained in the fumes and to evaporate water therefrom.
- process solution as used herein includes, but is not necessarily limited to, the electroplating bath solution and/or the rinse water.
- the process solution after being contacted with the fumes and having given up water to the fumes and absorbed values therefrom, is added to the electroplating solution.
- Steel strip 12 is guided into and out of individual rinsing compartments 20 by rolls 23 and is wiped by rolls 24 upon emerging from each of the rinsing stages.
- plated steel strip 12 passes through the last pair of wiping rolls 24 and is then sprayed with fresh water issuing from spray nozzles 25.
- the plated steel strip, after being sprayed with fresh water from nozzles 25, is then wiped with final wiping rolls 26 before being conveyed through passage 27 out of gas hood D and then through dryers 28. After drying, the strip can be coiled or treated in any other appropriate manner.
- Plating solution from electroplating tank A and overflow rinse water from rinse tank B are passed through conduits 31 and 32, respectively, to conduit 33 which conveys the combined solutions to the concentrator C.
- the FIGURE shows the solutions'from plating tank A flowing by gravity via overflow pipes 31a, 31b, 31c, and 31d through conduit 31.
- the solution from rinsing tank B is shown flowing by gravity through conduit 32.
- the solutions are admixed in conduit '33 and then flow by gravity into the concentrator C.
- the FIGURE shows rinse water passing through a cation exchanger 34 before being combined with electroplating solution from tank A.
- the cation exchange process and the desirability of providing the same will be described in greater detail hereinafter in conjunction with the more detailed description of the process.
- Concentrator C may be any suitable means for effecting intimate liquid-vapor contact between the fumes obtained from tanks A and B and the process solution.
- concentrator C is preferably a conventional packed tower that is constructed of any material that is corrosion resistant to the plating solution being treated.
- the tower can be constructed of stainless steel or titanium or polyvinylchloride or glass lined carbon steel.
- the concentrator C comprises generally a lower chamber 40 forming a reservoir for combined plating solution and rinse water, a packed bed 41, a second packed bed 42, conduit 43 for passing fumes collected by gas hood D into packed bed 41, damper 44 for controlling the flow of supplemental air into packed bed 41, blower 45 for exhausting gases that have passed through packed bed 41 and packed bed 42, pump 46 for conveying solution from reservoir 40 to packed bed 41 and means 47 for distributing the solution uniformly over the bed.
- the lower chamber 40 can be constructed of any suitable material, such as carbon or graphite blocks or any other material which is resistant to chemical attack by the plating solution.
- the electrolyte solution in reservoir 40 is circulated by pump 52 to tank A to replace the solution withdrawn from tank A via conduit 31.
- An independent-flow loop provides circulation through concentrator C of the solution from reservoir 40, by means of pump 46, thence through heat exchanger 54 to distributors 47, which distribute the solution over the surface of packed bed 41.
- the solution trickles through packed bed 41 wherein it comes into intimate gas-liquid contact with the fumes (and supplemental air) passing upwardly through packed bed 41.
- An amount of water, controlled as hereinbefore described, is evaporated from the solution which is thereby concentrated to the desired degree and cooled while chemical values in the gas stream condense into the downwardly flowing solution.
- the electroplating solution is cooled by giving up heat of vaporization to the water evaporating in the concentrator in a single operation which simultaneously controls the water balance of the electroplating solution, recovers values from and purifies the fumes generated by the electroplating process and recycles, rather than discharging to waste, rinse water contaminated by the electroplating solution.
- the total amount of gases and fumes collected from the electroplating operation is supplemented by sufficient air to evaporate the required amount of water.
- the temperature of the electroplating bath can be controlled by adding thereto, controlled amounts of the cooled solution obtained from the gas-liquid contacting step, e.g., from reservoir 40, and if necessary, passing the cooled solution in heat exchange, e.g., in heat exchanger 54 in the FIGURE, to further cool or to warm the solution as may be required in a specific case.
- the plating solution is constantly being depleted of plating values, e.g., chromic acid, due to the plating reaction; additional reagents along with other necessary or useful constituents can be added to the system at any convenient point.
- a convenient point for additions would be to the solution contained in reservoir 40.
- catalytic acid radicals are needed in the electroplating tank A to insure constant and soluble plating conditions.
- sulphate ions may be employed in amount sufficient to maintain a chromate (CrO to sulphate (S0 ratio of between about 50:1 and 250:1.
- a standard ba contains about 250 grams per liter (gpl) C10 and 2.5 gpl 80,.
- a silicofluoride type catalyst may be added to a standard bath in excess amounts to provide a self-regulating bath since silicofluoride catalysts display only limited solubilities and the required amount dissolves only as needed.
- hydrofluoric acid is added in amounts to provide a chromic acid to fluoride ratio between about 50:1 and 250:1.
- the plated steel strip passes to rinsing tank B and electroplating solution clinging thereto is rinsed from the strip.
- the rinsing operation is advantageously conducted on a countercurrent basis to provide more efficient rinsing and to provide an overflow rinse solution which is relatively concentrated in values carried over by the steel strip.
- liquidliquid techniques are also effective in lowering the trivalent chromium content.
- An example of a liquid ion exchanger is diononylnaphthalene sulfonic acid dissolved in heptane.
- Plating solution at a rate of 2,000 gallons per minute is combined with the overflow rinse water to provide a solution at a temperature of about 1 13 F.
- the combined solution is transferred to the reservoir of a packed tower, which reservoir contains 10,000 gallons of solution at a temperature of 1 10 F.
- a packed bed is sprayed with 2,000 gallons per minute of solution from reservoir 40 at a temperature of 125 F., while 35,000 standard cubic feet per minute of fume exhaust collected by gas hoods D are drawn through the packed bed along with 30,000 standard cubic feet per minute additional air by blower 45. Gases after passing through packed bed 42 to collect any mist generated in packed bed 41 or in the operation thereof are exhausted to the atmosphere at a temperature of 125 F.
- the process of claim 2 further including carrying out the intimate liquid-vapor contact in a packed bed of large surface area elements adapted to facilitate liquid-vapor contact and wherein the process solution is sprayed upon the upper sur face of the packed bed and passes downwardly therethrough and the fumes are passed upwardly through the packed bed to provide countercurrent contact between the process solution and the fumes whereby values contained in the fumes are dissolved into the process solution and is evaporated from the process solution whereby the process solution is cooled.
- the plating solution is an aqueous chromic acid solution for electroplating chromium.
- the process of claim 9 further including a rinsing step in which the plated article is rinsed with rinse water upon emerging from the electroplating tank and wherein all of the used rinse water and at least a portion of the aqueous chromic acid solution are contacted with the cation exchange resin.
- conduit means for conducting contacted liquid from said liquid-vapor contacting means into said electroplating tank.
- the combination of claim 23 further including a tower in which said packed bed and said demisting means are placed with the demisting means being the uppermost, a lower chamber in said tower forming a reservoir for collecting liquid passing through the packed bed and for providing solution to be sprayed onto the packed bed and means for pumping liquid in said reservoir to the packed bed.
