Investigation of the use of foams for silver leaching using the thiosulfate‑copper(II)-ammonia system in the context of e-waste recycling
Due to its physical properties, metallic silver is present in numerous electronic wastes. Its recycling requires selective extraction, which involves leaching of silver as the first step. This work focusses on leaching silver with Cu(II)/NH3/S2O32− which has been widely used for gold leaching. As recently shown for the leaching of copper, using foams whose aqueous phase consists of leaching chemicals is a promising way to reduce the environmental footprint, by improving the metal oxidation caused by the fast transfer of O2 from bubble to bubble. In this work, metallic silver samples are dissolved by foams made of Cu(II)/NH3/S2O32− solution with bubbles composed of O2-N2 mixtures. The main problem of the thiosulfate route is its degradation during metal oxidation hence it requires using large quantities of this reactant. The results obtained for our leaching foams show that the quantity of silver leached per quantity of thiosulfate used is about three times greater in comparison with a solution, which would bring a new approach to this problem. Moreover, we investigate the role of the bubble size and the gas composition (dioxygen partial pressure). Besides we find that the dissolved silver is inhomogeneously distributed between the foam column and the bottom solution, with an accumulation of 90 % of silver inside the foam, hence opening an interesting perspective for an easy separation of silver upon leaching. Comparing several surfactants, we show that only non-ionic surfactant polyoxyethylene oleyl ether, Brij O10, shows satisfying results, while dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride most likely binds with silver complexes and triggers a quick collapse of the foams.
期刊介绍:
Hydrometallurgy aims to compile studies on novel processes, process design, chemistry, modelling, control, economics and interfaces between unit operations, and to provide a forum for discussions on case histories and operational difficulties.
Topics covered include: leaching of metal values by chemical reagents or bacterial action at ambient or elevated pressures and temperatures; separation of solids from leach liquors; removal of impurities and recovery of metal values by precipitation, ion exchange, solvent extraction, gaseous reduction, cementation, electro-winning and electro-refining; pre-treatment of ores by roasting or chemical treatments such as halogenation or reduction; recycling of reagents and treatment of effluents.
