    Process for the preparation of electrical and electronic components for the recovery of recyclables
    The subject of this invention is a process for the preparation of electrical and electronic components for the recovery of valuable materials, such as the metals contained in printed circuit boards. The electrical or electronic components are mechanically pre-shredded.
    Electronic devices are equipped for control with one or more printed circuit boards. On this circuit boards a variety of functional units are constructed. These units are usually electrically connected with copper loops or other high-quality, electrically conductive metals. So that these control units are mechanically and thermally as stable as possible, the connecting lines are usually placed on a fiberglass bed (GFRP = glass fiber reinforced plastic) and connected or melted down by means of resins. As resins are often phenolic resins and various types of
    Epoxy resin compounds used. This embedding also protects against moisture. In addition to the mechanical protection due to the very low thermal expansion coefficient, the GRP panel also allows thermal stability. In addition to GRP, glass fleeces or paper composites are also used.
    Partial Teflon, ceramic or other polymers are used for the production of printed circuit boards.
    Many of the electronic devices are no longer suitable for use after a relatively short time and are scrapped. The resulting scrap contains a
    Variety of valuable raw materials whose recovery is worth striving for. Recyclables are metals, such as e.g. Copper, iron, tin, lead, gold, silver and platinum. But the recovery of non-metallic materials, such as glass fibers, is desirable.
    However, a reprocessing of electrical and electronic waste is not only necessary for reasons of resource conservation, but rather contain the electronic components of the equipment a number of substances, such as heavy metals, which pose a potential hazard in a landfill. Also halogenated, flame retarded residues are included. In thermal treatment (combustion) of these substances, there is a danger of the formation of dioxins and furans.
    Also simply constructed electrical devices (electrical appliances) have recyclables, e.g. Copper and iron or plastic, whose recovery is desirable.
    There are already many different methods for processing scrap from electrical and electronic components. All these methods try to recover residues such as GRP in a metal-poor purity and metal in a purity-free purity, in particular mechanical methods are used.
    For example, DE 41 00 346 A1 describes a method for the mechanical treatment of unsorted equipment scrap, in which, after a manual disassembly of the equipment, the electrical and electronic components are mechanically comminuted in several stages and wherein special separation steps are carried out between the comminution stages.
    The crushing takes place here with the help of cutting mills. Similar processes use double-shaft cutters, hammer mills or shredders for comminution. In all these crushing methods, there is a considerable dust, so such crushing units must be explosion-proof. The accumulating dust usually has to be disposed of as hazardous waste because of the pollutant content.
    In addition, it comes through the crushing or
    Grinding process to a heat development, through which the plastic and resin components can melt. As a result, the recyclables are more intimately connected with the residues. DE 195 18 277 CI describes a method for processing scrap from assembled printed circuit boards from electrical or electronic equipment, in which the printed circuit boards are mechanically pre-shredded and then cryogenically embrittled by liquid nitrogen and crushed in a hammer mill. Again, there is a significant dust.
    The separation of the metals from the residues is often unsatisfactory in conventional comminution methods, since the metals are intimately connected to the residues, in particular in printed circuit boards.
    The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a process for the preparation of electrical and electronic components, which causes a good separation of valuable and residual materials, without causing large amounts of dust.
    This object is achieved by a method according to claim 1.
    According to the invention, the pre-shredded components are mixed with a liquid, preferably water, and subjected to wet grinding. Wet grinding is understood to mean a grinding process in the presence of a liquid. The liquid or water addition can also be done directly into the grinding unit. The ground material can therefore be wet or dry introduced into the grinding unit, it should be wet only at the latest on contact with the grinding set, so that plastic parts do not melt.
    Due to the wet grinding and the cooling effect of the water, there is no melting of the plastic components and epoxy resins. Explosion protection can also be omitted since the process is dust-free and runs in a wet medium.
    Experiments carried out with the method according to the invention have shown that well separable fractions are formed therewith, since the milled particles have a more uniform size distribution. Fines are hardly formed.
    In the case of lyre plates, in contrast to dry pulping, the individual fibers of the FRP structure are exposed almost undamaged and copper fractions accumulate in a spherical form, since the wet grinding causes the metal components to be agglomerated. This spherical structure of the metal parts leads to a better subsequent separability of the valuable substances, for example at the wet separation table.
    The liquid used for the wet milling can be circulated during the process and optionally reused after a corresponding cooling or separation of fine substances for wet milling.
    Preferably, the electrical and electronic components are pre-shredded to a size less than 50 mm, preferably less than 20 mm. This pre-shredding can be carried out, for example, with a Querstromzerspaner or a granulator.
    Since these units are only used for coarse pre-shredding and not for fine comminution, the dust development is very low here as well. Pre-shredding dust can also be bound by a spray of water.
    It is advantageous if the wet grinding is carried out between grinding plates moving relative to one another, for example between two grinding disks, of which at least one grinding disk rotates (rotor-stator principle). The grinding discs may have concentrically arranged grinding teeth.
    But the grinding media or grinding plates can also have a conical or cylindrical shape. Both grinding media can rotate or a grinding media can be fixed. Important is only a relative movement of the grinding media to each other, since the digestion is based on the introduction of frictional forces.
    It is favorable if the grinding gap between the two disks is less than 1 mm, preferably less than 0.1 mm. As a result, in particular with printed circuit boards the
    Copper layers are well detached from the fibrous FRP and the detached copper is bubbled.
    The pre-shredded components are preferably fed to the wet grinding unit in the center of the grinding discs by means of a screw conveyor or with the aid of a carrier liquid, such as water. The material stream to be ground then moves outwards in a spiral.
    After wet grinding, the separation of valuable substances, ie primarily the metals, for example by means of a wet separation table, in which the metals are separated from the residues, such as plastics, GRP fibers and resins due to their density. A wet separation table is a wet mechanical working aggregate for density separation of fine and finest parts. About a moving, inclined plate, the millbase is abandoned. Through a transverse water flow, the specific lightest particles, the light fraction of the separation table, are transported in a film flow transversely to the plate. The specific heavier particles are transported across the length of the table by the rapid reversal of motion of the moving plate and contact with the plate surface, and can be withdrawn as a heavy fraction. With wet separation tables can also be separated into several fractions.
    In this case, the water used in wet grinding can be used as carrier material for the wet separation process.
    For separation of the ground material can also be a swim-sink method or a flotation each with adjustable density of the carrier medium can be used.
    The mixture can also be separated by electrostatic separation into its material components metals or residues. A separation with air separators is also conceivable, or a combination of the abovementioned separation processes can be used for the separation of the valuable substances.
    It makes sense if iron parts are separated with the aid of magnets after pre-shredding and before wet grinding.
    In the following, some embodiments of the invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. The same reference numerals in the respective figures designate the same components or material flows.
    FIG. 1 shows a simple process diagram of the treatment process according to the invention. The electrical or electronic components are removed from a warehouse 1 for pre-shredded material and pre-shredded in a pre-shredding 2, for example, to a size less than 50 mm. The pre-shredding unit 2 may be, for example, a granulator. To prevent the formation of dust here water 20 is supplied in the form of a spray and bound the resulting dust particles during comminution. After the pre-crushing 2 iron parts are deposited in a magnetic separator 3 and the material stream sieved 4 to segregate too large or too small pieces. The pre-shredded electrical or electronic components are then fed to the wet grinding 5 and here wet ground between two grinding discs. About the
    Water supply 20, the material flow is transported here in the grinding unit. After the wet milling 5, a further sieving 6 and a subsequent wet separation 7 with a wet separation table, in which the valuable substances 22 and the residues 23 are separated from each other and then dried in a drying 8 and 9 is carried out.
    The resulting in the wet separation 7 mixed fraction 21 is fed back to the wet grinding 5. The water 20 of the wet separation 7 is supplied after the deposition 10 of fines a cleaning 11 and then a water reservoir 12. The water reservoir 12 supplies the pre-shredding 2 and the wet grinding 5 with the necessary liquid 20.
    In Fig. 2, the separation of residues and recyclables with two wet separation steps 7a and 7b is performed. The valuable substances 22 obtained in the first wet separation step 7a are fed directly to the drying 8, a mixed fraction 21 containing both valuable substances and residues is again fed to the wet milling 5 and a residue flow 25, which also contains valuable substances, is fed to the second wet separation table 7b. There, the remaining recyclables 22 are separated from the residues 23 and a mixed fraction 21 with insufficiently separated value and residues again the grinding 5 fed. The water 20 from the two wet separation steps 7a and 7b is processed as described in FIG.
    In Figure 3, the separation of recyclables 22 and residues 23 by means of a wet separation process 7 and a dry separation 14, for example by means of an air classifier. Before the dry separation 14, the mixture is fed to a drying process 13. Inadequately separated material 21 is from the wet separation 7 and from the
    Dry separation 14 again the wet grinding 5 fed. Already at the wet separation 7 accumulating recyclables 22 no longer need the dry separation 14 are supplied.
    In FIG. 4, the pre-shredded components are ground in a first wet grinding 5 and fed to a first wet separation 7a. A recyclable fraction 24 is fed to a drying process 13 and a subsequent dry separation 14. The mixed fraction 21 from the first wet separation 7 a is returned to the first wet milling 5. The fraction 25 enriched with residues is ground again in a second wet milling 15 and separated in a second wet separation 7b into a fraction 24 enriched with valuable materials and into a residue flow 23. The enriched with recyclables fraction 24 is the drying 13 and the dry separation 14, respectively.
