摘要
A hydrometallurgical and electrochemical process for treating exhausted lead batteries, in particular the active mass and the electrolyte, is described having as products electrolytically obtained lead and elemental sulphur. The active mass (paste) obtained from the mechanical processing of the exhausted batteries, consisting mainly of lead sulphate and dioxide, is dispersed in a dilute H2SO4 solution and then reacted with an Na2S solution to convert all the lead compounds present into insoluble lead sulphide and sodium sulphate. After filtration, the sodium sulphate solution is evaporated to obtain the anhydrous salt. From this, by thermal reduction with carbon, the Na2S is reformed for use in treating further paste. The lead sulphide obtained in this manner is leached with an electrolyte based on ferric fluoborate, which oxidizes the sulphide to elemental sulphur and solubilizes the lead in the form of fluoborate. After filtering the residue containing the elemental sulphur, the lead fluoborate solution is electrolyzed in a diaphragm cell to obtain electrolytic lead in the cathodic compartment and regenerate the ferric fluoborate in the anodic compartment for use in leaching further sulphide.
