一方、円筒状陰極３の外周表面５の縦方向一箇所には帯状絶縁材６が複数個間隙８を空けて着脱できるようにネジ９によって止めてある。
On the other hand, a plurality of strip-shaped insulating materials 6 are secured to one place in the longitudinal direction of the outer peripheral surface 5 of the cylindrical cathode 3 with screws 9 so that a plurality of gaps 8 can be attached and detached.
帯状絶縁材６を間隙を空けずに連続して装着しておいた場合、析出した銀は、帯状絶縁材６を境にして陰極から剥離し、電解の途中で脱落しまうため間隙８を設けておくことが重要である。即ち、この間隙８は、円筒状陰極３の周辺に析出した銀が剥離するのを防止する間隙である。実施例１では間隙８は一箇所であるが、複数箇所設けることもできる。間隙８の好ましい範囲は１ｍｍ～１０ｍｍ、好ましくは３～７ｍｍである。１ｍｍ以下になると電解の途中で剥離してしまうので好ましくない、１０ｍｍ以上になると剥離作業に手間がかかるので好ましくない。
When the strip-shaped insulating material 6 is continuously mounted without leaving a gap, the deposited silver peels off from the cathode with the strip-shaped insulating material 6 as a boundary and falls off during the electrolysis, so that a gap 8 is provided. It is important to keep That is, the gap 8 is a gap that prevents the silver deposited around the cylindrical cathode 3 from peeling off. In the first embodiment, the gap 8 is one place, but a plurality of places may be provided. The preferable range of the gap 8 is 1 mm to 10 mm, preferably 3 to 7 mm. If it is 1 mm or less, it is not preferable because it is peeled off during electrolysis, and if it is 10 mm or more, it is not preferable because it takes time for the peeling work.
本発明において、円筒状陰極３を構成する材料としては、例えば、チタン、ステンレス等が挙げられる。また、陽極を構成する材料としては、網状チタンに白金又は白金合金をめっきしたものが挙げられる。
In the present invention, examples of the material constituting the cylindrical cathode 3 include titanium and stainless steel. Moreover, as a material which comprises an anode, what plated platinum or a platinum alloy on reticulated titanium is mentioned.
本発明において、円筒状陰極３に析出した銀を剥離し易くするため円筒状陰極３に設ける絶縁キャップ７及び帯状絶縁材６を構成する材料としては、例えば、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリカーボネート、ナイロン及びポリエステル等の合成樹脂、天然ゴム、ポリウレタンゴム、ニトリルゴム及びシリコンゴム等のゴムが挙げられる。
In the present invention, examples of materials constituting the insulating cap 7 and the strip-shaped insulating material 6 provided on the cylindrical cathode 3 in order to facilitate the peeling of silver deposited on the cylindrical cathode 3 include, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, polycarbonate, nylon and polyester. And synthetic rubbers such as natural rubber, polyurethane rubber, nitrile rubber and silicone rubber.
次に、本発明に係る銀の電解回収装置による銀を含有する廃液からの銀の回収について説明する。回収装置の対象となる廃液は、主にめっき工場から排出される使用後の銀めっき液或いは電子部品等から銀を溶解剥離した回収液である。
Next, recovery of silver from a waste liquid containing silver by the silver electrolytic recovery apparatus according to the present invention will be described. The waste liquid that is the target of the recovery apparatus is a recovered silver plating liquid or a recovered liquid obtained by dissolving and peeling silver from an electronic component or the like that is mainly discharged from a plating factory.
まず、円筒状陰極３の下縁部全周に亘りポリエチレン製の絶縁キャップ７を嵌着する。更に円筒状陰極３の外周表面５の縦方向二箇所へ同じくポリエチレン製の帯状絶縁材６をネジ９によって固定する。その際、前記帯状絶縁材６は図２に示すようにつなぎ合わせないよう５ｍｍの間隙８を設けておく、このように調製した円筒状陰極３は電解槽１の陰極固定棒１０へネジ１３により着装する。
First, a polyethylene insulating cap 7 is fitted over the entire periphery of the lower edge of the cylindrical cathode 3. Furthermore, a belt-like insulating material 6 made of polyethylene is similarly fixed to the longitudinal two outer peripheral surfaces 5 of the cylindrical cathode 3 with screws 9. At that time, as shown in FIG. 2, the strip-shaped insulating material 6 is provided with a gap 8 of 5 mm so as not to be joined. The cylindrical cathode 3 thus prepared is connected to the cathode fixing rod 10 of the electrolytic cell 1 with screws 13. Wear it.
次いで、電解槽１へ銀回収廃液１４を充填し、制御装置２の電源を入れ廃液中に含有する銀を電気分解により円筒状陰極３へ析出させた結果、間隙８に電解銀が析出されるためポリエチレン製帯状絶縁材６によってセパレートされた電解銀は、前記間隙８部分に析出した電解銀によって連通されているため銀は陰極から剥離、離脱することはなかつた。
Next, the silver recovery waste liquid 14 is filled in the electrolytic cell 1, the power of the control device 2 is turned on, and silver contained in the waste liquid is deposited on the cylindrical cathode 3 by electrolysis. As a result, electrolytic silver is deposited in the gap 8. For this reason, the electrolytic silver separated by the polyethylene strip-shaped insulating material 6 is communicated by the electrolytic silver deposited in the gap 8 portion, so that the silver was not peeled off or separated from the cathode.
円筒状陰極３は電解槽１から取り出し、帯状絶縁材６のネジ９を外し、帯状絶縁材６を除去することによって析出した電解銀１６は、図４に示すように円筒状陰極３から容易に剥離することができた。図４では、剥離した筒状の電解銀１６の、間隙８の部分にあった切り離された断片部１７（間隙部分に析出した電解銀）を示している。
The cylindrical cathode 3 is taken out from the electrolytic cell 1, and the electrolytic silver 16 deposited by removing the screw 9 of the strip-shaped insulating material 6 and removing the strip-shaped insulating material 6 is easily removed from the cylindrical cathode 3 as shown in FIG. It was possible to peel off. FIG. 4 shows the separated piece 17 (electrolytic silver deposited in the gap) of the peeled cylindrical electrolytic silver 16 in the gap 8.
実施例２は、金の電解回収装置に関する実施例である。上記の実施例１の銀の電解回収装置の説明は、同様に、金の電解回収装置にも、適用できるもので、説明中の銀を金と換えるのみで、説明される。このため、重複記載を避けて、これ以上の記載はここでは省略する。
