Abstract

The invention relates to a method of recovering tellurium from cadmium telluride waste materials. The method comprises the following steps: step one, grinding and sieving cadmium telluride waste materials, and evenly mixing processed cadmium telluride waste materials with water to form a first mixed solution; step two, adding an acid into the first mixed solution, carrying out reactions for a while, and then adding an oxidant to form a second mixed solution; and step three, filtering the second mixed solution to obtain a first solution and tellurium dioxide precipitates. By controlling the oxidation potential during the leaching process of cadmium telluride waste materials, tellurium and cadmium are separated and recovered, the purities of obtained tellurium dioxide and cadmium sulfide can both reach 2N-3N, the technology is simple, the operation is safe, the cost is low, and the recovery rate is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of hydrometallurgy, in particular to a method for recovering tellurium from cadmium telluride. Background technique [0002] Cadmium telluride is widely used in infrared detectors, solar cells, photovoltaic materials and X8-ray detectors. At present, the cadmium telluride thin-film solar industry is developing rapidly and is considered one of the most promising solar technologies. It is expected that with the development of the cadmium telluride thin-film solar industry, the demand for cadmium telluride will continue to grow rapidly. [0003] At present, the production methods of cadmium telluride mainly focus on liquid phase synthesis and gas phase synthesis. Cadmium telluride waste is produced in the process. Chinese patent application CN200710049888.8 discloses a cadmium telluride recovery device and its recovery method, using pyrometallurgy to directly recover cadmium telluride products. In addition, there is n...
