摘要:
Hexacyanoferrate ions are removed from washing waters using a weakly basic anion exchanger of the acrylic type containing tertiary amino groups. The anion exchanger is treated with an alkali metal hydroxide and an alkali metal dihydrogen phosphate solution.
摘要:
A method for controlled delivery of corrosion inhibitors to a silver containing solution in a silver recovery device which utilizes a metallic fill for electron exchange. The method involves forming a structure of polyurethane foam within which a corrosion inhibitor is incorporated and placing the structure in the silver recovery device.
摘要:
A process of treating a waste photographic processing solution containing reductive sulfur compounds, in particular, a waste fix solution for silver halide photographic materials, by applying thereto photosynthetic sulfur bacteria under anaerobic conditions with the irradiation of light. When the waste solution contains silver, the decontamination of the waste solution and the recovery of silver are performed simultaneously by the process.
摘要:
A formulation and method for treating waste photographic processing solutions to destroy the pollutant nature of the solution and recover residual silver from the solution. Waste photographic processing solutions containing silver thiosulfate complexes and/or sulfite, such as exhausted fixing solutions, are treated with a chemical formulation including an oxidant of sodium chlorate in the presence of an acidic buffering agent. The formulation oxidizes the thiosulfate and/or sulfite ions of the solution to the sulfate state and precipitates the silver ion as an insoluble halide.
摘要:
A PROCESS FOR THE REGENERATION OF USED PHOTOGRAPHIC SILVER BLEACHING BATHS CONTAINING THE IRON-II-CYANIDE COMPLEX WHEREIN THE BATH IS TREATED WITH CHOROUS ACID OR A WATER SOLUBLE SALT THEREOF AT A PH OF 5 TO 8 OPTIONALLY IN THE PRESENCE OF A CATALYST AS HEREIN DEFINED.
摘要:
Depleted photographic bleach/fix baths which include bleaching agents (such as the iron III complex of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) and a silver halide solvent are regenerated by addition to a recycled stream thereof of an iron, cobalt and copper-free regenerating solution which includes a polycarboxylic acid, a silver halide solvent, and an organic bleach-enhancing compound which includes at least one atom which is different from carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen.
摘要:
Compositions which are effective as photographic bleach-fixes can be prepared from solutions containing substantial amounts of reduced oxidant, e.g., ferrocyanide, and dissolved silver by reaction with iodine which oxidizes the reduced oxidant and precipitates silver as silver iodide. This can be used for effective regeneration of photographic bleach-fix compositions.
