Abstract: There is provided a method for recovering lead from copper smelting dust according to the present invention includes an alkali leaching step of leaching lead contained in copper smelting dust with an alkali solution, a step of performing a solid liquid separation on a post-leaching solution and a leaching residue after the alkali leaching step, a neutralization step of adding an acid to the separated post-leaching solution to precipitate a lead, and a step of recovering a precipitate containing the lead by performing a solid liquid separation.

Abstract: A honeycomb filter includes a pillar-shaped honeycomb substrate having a porous partition wall disposed so as to surround a plurality of cells serving as a fluid through channel extending from a first end face to a second end face; and a plugging portion provided at an open end on the first end face side or the second end face side of each of the cells, wherein the partition wall constituting the honeycomb substrate is composed of a ceramic porous material, a ratio of a volume of pores having a pore diameter of 10 ?m or less with respect to a total pore volume of the partition wall measured by a mercury press-in method is 85 to 95%, and an average pore diameter of the partition wall measured by the mercury press-in method is 4 to 10 ?m.

Abstract: A method for treating waste printed circuit board includes carbonizing waste printed circuit board together with a calcium compound at 400° C. to 600° C. in a non-oxidizing atmosphere to fix a halogen contained in the board as calcium halide and to melt a solder of the board to allow mounted parts to be easily separated from the board, performing crushing after the carbonizing, and sieving crushed materials into fine particles of less than 0.5 mm containing the calcium compounds, medium particles containing the mounted parts, and coarse particles containing board pieces such that the crushed materials are sorted into the calcium compounds, the mounted parts, and the board pieces.

Abstract: In this treatment method of a coated wire, a coated wire, which is a metal wire coated with a resin, is subjected to low-temperature heating in a non-combustion atmosphere in coexistence with an alkali to embrittle the coating resin, the embrittled coating resin is crushed, and the coating resin and the metal wire are separated.

Abstract: A valuable material recovery method includes a discharge step of discharging a lithium-ion battery; a thermal decomposition step of reducing a lithium compound, which is a cathode active material, into a magnetic oxide by thermally treating the lithium-ion battery after being discharged; a crushing step of crushing the lithium-ion battery, after being thermally decomposed, into fragments of a size suitable for wind sorting, allowing part of the magnetic oxide to remain in the aluminum foil; a sieving step of sieving a crushed material to separate the crushed material into an oversized product and an undersized product; a wind sorting step of separating the oversized product into a heavy product and a light product; and a magnetic sorting step of sorting and recovering the aluminum foil with a residue of the magnetic oxide, as a magnetized material, and recovering the copper foil as a non-magnetized material from the light product.
