The invention relates to the field of electrochemical productions, in particular to the disposal of lead from lead waste.

The invention can be used as one of the ways to get lead for the production of batteries as lining and electrode material in the chemical industry, etc.

There is a method of recycling worn-out lead plates containing melted metal fraction and the casting of anodes for subsequent refining, processing sulphate-oxide fraction and a sludge mixture of carbonate and hydrosulfite ammonium with the release of lead in the form of carbonate, which is then leached waste kremneftoristogo acid (after electrolysis) [Cole E.R., Lee A.Y., Paulsen L. // J. Metals - 1985 - No. 2 - p.79-83].

The disadvantage of this method is the complexity of the process.

The closest way to the same destination on the totality of symptoms is the method of disposal of lead from spent batteries, which involves placement of intact lead plates with the active mass in the electrolyte and electrochemical selection of lead at current density of 10-20 mA/cm2[Pat. 2245393, Russia, MKI SS 1/18. Method for processing of spent lead acid batteries].

The disadvantage of this method are relatively high for the rata on the electrolyte.

The objective of the claimed invention - processing of secondary lead raw materials and environmental protection.

The technical result - the environmental safety of the process and efficiency through the use of cheaper electrolyte.

The essence of the proposed method is that this method involves the simultaneous dissolution of intact lead plates with the active mass in the electrolyte and electrochemical allocation of lead, while the current density is 5-15 mA/cm2and in the electrolyte used is maleic acid.

In a pot pour a solution of maleic acid and lower intact lead plate with an active mass for its offices. Fix a cathode made of pure lead and lead anodes are used, the plates of the spent battery. Next is the electrolytic selection of lead while dissolving it worked lead plates. The cathode current density is 5-15 mA/cm2. Diagram of the process shown in the drawing.

Conducting electrolysis by the proposed method allows to recycle worn-out lead-acid batteries to obtain pure lead.

The table shows the dependence of the current output from the current density.

Table

i, mA/cm2 W %

15 96,8
20 76,4
30 to 43.1

At low current densities are in the process of recovery of lead ions:

Pb2++2e→Pb°

When carrying out electrolysis at a current density of 5-15 mA/cm2the current output lead exceeds 90%. At current density of 15 mA/cm2the outputs of the current lead is reduced. The increase in current density leads to a parallel reaction recovery of lead and hydrogen, and at a current density of more than 30 mA/cm2is only the reaction of hydrogen:

2H2O+2E→2OH-+H2

When the current density is less than 5 mA/cm2the performance of the process is low.

The electrolysis was performed in the cell volume of 1 L. the anode used lattice spent battery, as the cathode plate of pure lead. In the electrolyte composition comprises maleic to the slot, ions of lead.

Example 1. In a glass bowl 1 l pour electrolyte containing 100 g/l maleic acid, and then placed there intact lead plate with the active mass on the day. The cathode - plate pure lead. The anode is not destroyed leaden plate with the active mass. The current density of 5 mA/cm2. The precipitate has a loose spongy structure. The current output 98,9%.

Example 2. The electrolysis is carried out according to example 1 at a current density of 10 mA/cm2. The current output of 98.2%.

Example 3. The electrolysis is carried out according to example 1 at a current density of 15 mA/cm2. The current output 96,8%.

The proposed method has several advantages:

1. Reducing the cost of the preparation of the electrolyte.

2. Almost complete recycling of lead from used lead acid batteries.

For the inventive method, it is described in the independent clause sets out the claims, confirmed the possibility of its implementation using the steps described in the application of tools and methods.

The method of disposal of lead from spent batteries, including accommodation intact lead plates with an active mass of waste batteries in the electrolyte, further simultaneous dissolution of intact lead plates with the active mass in the electrolyte and electrochemical allocation lead the ri current density of 5-15 mA/cm 2, characterized in that the electrolyte used is maleic acid.
