초록

폐 태양광전지 처리과정에서 은은 실리콘 및 알루미늄을 회수 위해 제거 하거나 처리하지않고 버리고있는 현실이다. 경제적 및 환경 보호 측면에 폐 태양광전지부터 은의 회수 중요하다고 판단함. 선행연구에서 1 mol/L 질산, 반응온도 70도, 반응시간 2h로 폐 태양광전지부터 Ag, Al을 침출 하었다. 이 침출액으로부터 은을 회수하기 위해 추출제 LIX63 및 탈거제 암모니아수 이용하였다. 추출 및 탈거 효율에 영향 미치는 조건: 침출액 pH, 금속이온 농도, 추출제의 농도, A/O ratio(수상 및 유기상 부피비율), 탈거제 농도 및 탁거과정에서 A/O ratio등을 변화시켜 조차하였다. McCabe-Thiele plots로부터 Ag(I)의 추출 및 탈거에 대한 이론 단수를 구하였으며, 향류 다단 모의 추출 시험을 통해 Ag(I)의 추출과 탈거에 대한 효율이 각각 >99.99%, 98.9% 이었다. Ag(I)와 Al(III)의 순도는 각각 99.998% 와 99.99%이었으며, 질산 침출액으로부터 Ag(I)및 Al(III)을 회수하기 위한 공정도를 제안하였다.

Spent photovoltaic module is one of the important resource of silver, while related research concerning silver recovery remains limited. In our previous research, HNO3 was utilized to dissolve Ag(I) and Al(III) from the spent silicon solar cells. In order to recover Ag(I) from the leachate of a silicon solar cell, the present study made use of a nitrate solution containing Ag(I) and Al(III), which was subjected to a solvent extraction process with 5,8-diethyl-7-hydroxydodecan-6-oxime (LIX63). Ag(I) was selectively extracted with LIX63 over Al(III) from the nitrate leach solution. Subsequently, quantitative stripping of Ag(I) from the loaded LIX63 was performed by using 20% ammonia water. The McCabe-Thiele plots for the extraction and stripping isotherms of Ag(I) were also constructed. Extraction and stripping simulation tests confirmed an Ag(I) extraction and stripping efficiency of >99.99% and 98.9%, respectively with high purity Ag (99.998%) and Al (99.99%) solution. A process flow sheet for Ag(I) recovery from the nitrate leach solution was proposed.
