Efficient and emission-reduced recovery of high-purity copper from waste enameled copper wires
The escalating demand for refined copper intensifies research into the recycling of copper-based solid waste, exemplified by recovery of copper from waste enameled copper wires (WECWs). Despite its potential, the pyrolysis process for WECWs is hindered by embrittlement, diminishing both recycling yield and quality. Our study pioneers the elucidation of the embrittlement mechanism during WECWs pyrolysis through atom probe tomography and first-principles calculations, revealing that hydrogen, a byproduct of paint film pyrolysis, accumulates at copper grain boundaries, inducing embrittlement by reducing adhesion energy. We introduce two innovative strategies to mitigate hydrogen-induced embrittlement: vacuum pyrolysis and enhanced N2 flow. These approaches significantly reduced hydrogen content from 11.1 % to about 5 % and increased elongation from 2.65 % to 15 %. Moreover, pyrolysis efficiencies of 92.79 % and 91.4 % were achieved, respectively, at temperatures 50 °C lower than conventional methods. Our findings provide crucial theoretical insights into embrittlement and offer effective recovery strategies for copper from solid waste.
期刊介绍:
The journal Resources, Conservation & Recycling welcomes contributions from research, which consider sustainable management and conservation of resources. The journal prioritizes understanding the transformation processes crucial for transitioning toward more sustainable production and consumption systems. It highlights technological, economic, institutional, and policy aspects related to specific resource management practices such as conservation, recycling, and resource substitution, as well as broader strategies like improving resource productivity and restructuring production and consumption patterns.
Contributions may address regional, national, or international scales and can range from individual resources or technologies to entire sectors or systems. Authors are encouraged to explore scientific and methodological issues alongside practical, environmental, and economic implications. However, manuscripts focusing solely on laboratory experiments without discussing their broader implications will not be considered for publication in the journal.
