at enterprises that process secondary copper raw materials, it is customary to extract copper from the spent electrolyte by electroextraction. After electroextraction, the solution is neutralized with lime milk to obtain a gypsum nickel-containing cake or evaporated with the release of a cake containing metal sulfates (Cu, Ni, Zn, Fe), which is sold as a commercial product. The search for effective technological solutions for the selective isolation of secondary non-ferrous metals during the regeneration and complete utilization of copper electro fining solutions is relevant. The paper presents studies of the processing of spent copper electrolyte from the processing of non-ferrous metal scrap at a copper smelter in Kazakhstan. For the processing of the spent electrolyte, a stage-by-stage neutralization was performed using zinc sublimates and potash. As a result of the first stage of neutralization with zinc sublimations to pH 4.7, a precipitate with a content of PbO 44.69 %; Sn?2 16,3.....
