Abstract

The total amount of printed wiring boards scrap generated in 1988 reached to 50 billion tons in Japan. When a hummer impact mill was used in grinding them, copper was liberated from other materials and the shapes of individual products were able to be controlled at the same time.<BR>An inclined conveyor was developed for the purpose of particle shape separation in our laboratory, which was characterized for the possibility of processing a large amount of feed materials. We tried to separate spherical copper from ground printed wiring boards.<BR>The belt speed was not effected so much and the optimum inclination angle was 30°for recovery of copper. In this case, the copper concentration of the separated product was more than 70%, the recovery of copper was more than 80%, and the Newton's separation efficiency was about 65%.
