Hydrometallurgical Processing and Recovery of Nickel from Spent Cathode Ray Tubes

recovery of nickel from spent catalysts by hydrometallurgical method

there are no appreciable amounts of nickel resources in iran; therefore, secondary resources of this element are to be more considered in future. spent nickel catalysts that are used in various industrial processes are one of them. for example nickel catalyst that is used in hydrogenation of edible oil have large amounts of nickel and they are generally supported on porous materials like silica...

Hydrometallurgical Recovery of Nano-Palladium from Spent Catalyst

Hydrometallurgical recovery of nano-palladium (Pd) from spent Pd/Al2O3 catalyst has been investigated. The Pd content in the spent catalyst sample was assayed to be 0.42% while the remainder was mainly aluminum oxide. Mixture of HCl and AlCl3 was studied as leaching agent for the sample. The Pd was deposited with formic acid. Different parameters affecting leaching and deposition processes such...

Recycling of Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs) in electronic waste

Electro-recovery of nickel from spent catalyst (solid waste) coming out from nitrogenous fertilizer industry

Spent catalysts are principally solid waste which that coming out from nitrogenous fertilizer industry, during the production of ammonia, resulting in the production of large amount of solid waste containing nickel, which is the spent or deactivated catalysts. These catalysts contain from 12-14% nickel based on the production process in fertilizer industry disposal of spent catalyst is a proble...

Hydrometallurgical Recovery of Metals from Large Printed Circuit Board Pieces

The recovery of precious metals from waste printed circuit boards (PCBs) is an effective recycling process. This paper presents a promising hydrometallurgical process to recover precious metals from waste PCBs. To simplify the metal leaching process, large pieces of PCBs were used instead of a pulverized sample. The chemical coating present on the PCBs was removed by sodium hydroxide (NaOH) tre...
