Copper is an important metal that is widely used in electrical, construction and transportation. However, copper pollution in wastewater is becoming more and more serious, affecting water quality and ecological stability. The combined extraction centrifugal extractor provides an efficient solution for copper extraction.



Environmental characteristics of copper


Copper is present in water mainly in the form of copper ions (Cu² +). Its accumulation in the water body can lead to the growth of aquatic organisms, and even cause toxic reactions. Excessive discharge of copper not only affects water quality, but also poses a potential threat to human health through the food chain.


Working mechanism of combined extraction centrifugal extractor


The combined extraction centrifugal extractor realizes the separation of copper from wastewater by centrifugal force. Its working steps include:

1. Waste water feeding: the copper containing waste water into the equipment.

2. Centrifugal separation: the equipment rotates at high speed, and copper ions settle due to high density.

3. Collection of precipitation: The copper precipitation after settlement can be collected and subsequent treatment.

Optimized extraction process


Copper extraction efficiency is affected by a number of factors, including:


1. Centrifugal speed: Appropriately increase the speed can accelerate the sedimentation of copper, usually recommended between 4000-8000 rpm.

2. Extraction time: Extending the extraction time can improve the extraction rate of copper, which is recommended between 15-30 minutes.

3. pH adjustment: The right pH value can promote the precipitation of copper, usually better under acidic conditions (pH 4-6)




Subsequent resource recovery of copper


The copper precipitates after extraction can be processed by roasting, solvent extraction and other methods to realize the recovery and reuse of copper. This can not only reduce environmental pollution, but also achieve efficient use of resources.

The application of combined extraction centrifugal extractor to extract copper elements from wastewater provides an effective solution for copper pollution control, and promotes the sustainable development of environmental protection and resource recovery.
