Feb 14, 1990· In the thickener 34, a sludge 46 formed by the settling of the solids is discharged at the bottom and pumped to a neutralization tank 48 where it is neutralized with lime milk 50. The neutralized slurry 52 is then dewatered in a drum filter 54 to form a waste cake product 56 and a filtrate 57. The filtrate 57 is sent to settling pond 42.
Waste cadmium-nickel batteries contain a large amount of metal cadmium, nickel and a small amount of cobalt. If they are not recycled, they will not only pollute the environment, but also endanger human health (the most important harmful substance in used cadmium-nickel batteries is cadmium), and it will cause waste of resources. Powben self-developed vacuum distillation furnace can be used ...

Solution of reworking of copper cake is used as copper-containing solution. Reworking of copper cake includes washing-off admixtures continued for 4-6 h at temperature of 50-70°C and final pH of 2-3 and subsequent stage of sulfuric acid leaching of copper from washed-off cake. EFFECT: low cost of cementation cleaning. 1 tbl
recovery. Most of the cadmium is precipitated using a zinc dust addition. The purified zinc sulfate solution is sent to the cellroom, and metallic zinc is recovered from the solution by electrowinning. The cadmium precipitate is sent to the cadmium plant where it is filtered and pressed into a cake containing cadmium, zinc, and minor amounts of
After 1st and 2nd level E-waste treatment, E-waste fractions will be sold/ exported to 3rd level recyclers for precious metals recovery. The installed capacity of the 1st and 2nd level plant has been conceptualized to be about 9 tons per day during 2009 to 32 tons per day during 2019 considering 50% collection efficiency.

INMETCO, a major nickel and copper producer, specializes in the recovery of nickel, chromium and iron from industrial flue dusts, filter cakes, mill scales, grindings, nickel-cadmium batteries, and used catalysts using the INMETCO "High Temperature Metals Recovery Process." In 1993, the company processed over 54,000 tons of such materials.
Jan 01, 2015· This method is also based on Pyrometallurgy. In this method the cadmium is distilled at high temperature (850-900 degree centigrade) in a reducing atmosphere. Then the cadmium is chemically leached with the help of sulphuric acid and finally cadmium is recovered from the leachate by electrolysis (Sequeira & Moffat, 1997).

The hydrometallurgical methods of metal recovery from e-waste use solvent extraction, leaching, adsorption and ion exchange processes for selective dissolution of precious metals, and recovery ...
Zinc-containing wastes are thickened, dehydrated to a moisture content of not more than 10-13%, mixed with a reducing agent. Dehydrated Zinc-containing wastes (cake or sludge) are mixed with synthetic reducing agents in a mass ratio cake-artificial reducing agent …
Glass waste dumps from crystal glass production is an health issue due to the occurrence of antimony, arsenic, cadmium and lead in crystal glass. Recovery of those elements could both decrease pollution and recycle metals in the circular economy. Pyrometallurgy is a potential recovery method, yet limited by high energy consumption.
