- Abstract
- In this research, a study of the effects of agitation rate for desilvering a tin-silver alloy residue and extracting silver by using pyrometallurgy was carried out. SnAg alloy residue with 92 wt.% tin and 3.56 wt.% silver was used and 99.999 wt.% zinc was added as a metal-solvent. Residues were melted to the temperature of 400 0C for enriching tin-silver alloy. The obtained tin-silver alloy was melted to the temperature range of 450 0C to 500 0C by adding zinc to evaluate its dissolution. The obtained tin silver-zinc was agitated at different agitation rates for a period of 20 min at a temperature of 480 0C, then cooled down while stirring to the eutectic point of tin zinc alloy (199 0C) to remove silver-zinc dross. An XRF-1800 and FE-SEM-EDS analysis were performed in this research. Different factors including holding time, zinc dissolution, agitation time, and agitation rate were evaluated. The results reveal that the efficient agitation rate is 600RPM, with 25% Zn and 60min at a temperature of 199 0C. Tin zinc was removed every 20minutes, and Zinc silver dross remained to be used for the next step to get 92% silver separation efficiency. Through volatilization of zinc 99.63% silver purity was obtained. Since the increase of agitation rate reduce the number of stages to a half but not to a single phase, the use of a supergravity centrifuge is highly recommended as future work to get the best separation efficiency with a single phase.
본 연구에서는 주석 은합금 잔류물을 제거하고 화농합금을 이용한 은 추출에 대한 교란률의 영향에 대한 연구를 수행하였습니다. 92WT의 SnAg 합금 잔류물입니다.% 주석과 3.56 wt.% 은이 본 연구에서 사용되었으며 99.999 wt.% 아연이 금속 용매로 첨가되었습니다. 주석 은 합금을 농축하기 위해 잔여물을 400 0C 온도로 녹였습니다. 얻어진 주석 은 합금은 아연 용해를 평가하기 위해 아연을 첨가하여 450 0C에서 500 0C의 온도 범위까지 용해되었습니다. 얻은 주석 은 아연은 480 0C의 온도에서 20분 동안 다른 교반률로 교반한 다음 주석 아연 합금의 공융점(199 0C)까지 교반하여 은 아연 찌꺼기를 제거합니다. 본 연구에서는 XRF-1800 및 FE-SEM-EDS 분석이 수행되었습니다. 유지 시간, 아연 분해, 교란 시간 및 교란 속도를 포함한 다양한 요소들이 평가되었습니다. 그 결과 효율적인 교란 속도는 600RPM이고, 198.9 0C의 온도에서 25% Zn과 60min이 효율적인 것으로 밝혀졌습니다. 주석 아연은 20분마다 제거되었고, 아연 은 찌꺼기는 다음 단계에서 92%의 은 분리 효율을 얻고 아연의 순도 99.9%의 휘발성을 얻었습니다. 교란 속도가 증가하면 단상이 아닌 절반으로 감소하므로 향후 단상으로 최고의 분리 효율을 얻기 위해 초중력 원심분리기를 사용하는 것이 좋습니다.
