METHOD OF RECOVERING VALUABLE METAL FROM SCRAP CONTAINING CONDUCTIVE OXIDE

摘要

A method of recovering a valuable metal from an oxide-based scrap, charac terized by using an insoluble electrode as an anode, using the oxide-based s crap as a cathode, and conducting electrolysis to recover the cathode scrap in the form of metal or suboxide.Thus, a valuable metal is efficiently recov ered from an oxide-based scrap, e.g., a sputtering target made of indium-tin oxide (ITO) or fragments resulting from production.
