Battery manufacturing Lead recovery - solid waste separation

Hi

any one can advise me.

Application: this case is in battery manufacturing company . their have all batteries recycle system. called lead recovery area. after smelting furnance , sluge conatin fallowing (refer attchement) , after 1 month sieving these its become fine powder. we need to separate ingredients . densities are different but sizes are fine powder (all are aprroximate same)

Chemical Contains - after 1 month

Na2Co3 - 15 % S.g 2532 kg/m3

Na2So4 – 20 % Sg 2680 Kg /m3

Fe2o3 - 40 % Sg 5240 Kg/m3

Fe3O4 – 10 % Sg 5180 Kg/m3

Carbon – 10% Sg <1000 (Come from coconut charcoal)

Lead – 5 % Sg 9530 Kg/m3

what is the economical method for separation , any wet cyclone ,method or vibratory sprial chue method?

thanks

Another Process topic although there is some weight behind it. Ho Ho. Lead weight ...get it? Its worth a go.

According to your other thread all is not well with the furnace flue gases either.

In your sludge the sodium salts can be dissolved in water and separated as a filtrate. Further separation is uneconomic.

This leaves you with rust, carbon and lead. The carbon should have been burnt off but your furnace is not hot enough. Perhaps it should be warmed up.

That would leave you with just rust and native lead: which latter you can isolate with a shaker table for the quantities used in battery recycling.

The native lead you can alloy with the antimony. Where does the antimony get separated?

With the increase in the usage of the Briquetting Machine these days their has been found that industries are installing Briquetting Plant as they consider it a easy method for disposing wastage.

Read the thread! It is required to recycle the lead before it is sent back to the Winkels.

Where is the guy supposed to dump briquettes loaded with 5% lead? It might be an easy way to dipose wastage in your neck of the woods but not elsewhere.

Try selling something else: something that you know about.

With the proper usage of briquetting machine it would be more advantageous to manage the wastage and maintenance of the wastage helps to create the environment safety and much greener.So such wastage which harms the environment should be eradicated appropriately.

With the invention of the Briquetting machine it makes the whole process to manage the wastage makes so easy. As the technology present in the machine is much advance to manufacture briquette.

Hello Uditha,

What sort of quantities are you talking about? Are you requiring full material separation or just lead separation.
