Silver cyanide production process will produce silver waste, with recycling value. In today's society increasingly tense energy, energy saving and economic survival of every business a strong guarantee. In this paper, Jiangmen silver cyanide plating factory waste as raw materials, which use electrochemical recovery of silver and silver recovery may affect the various process conditions were optimized to obtain the best silver recovery process, its technical and economic evaluation. Electrochemical principle of electrolytic waste containing cyanide silver, graphite plate as anode, cathode copper for air mixing, adding a certain amount of salt. Obtained by orthogonal test the best test conditions were: current density of 1.0A, the bipolar plate distance 9cm, wastewater PH value of 9.0, temperature 25 ℃. Through the analysis of orthogonal test, can know the current density, the bipolar plate distance of the main factors, water temperature, PH value and the secondary factor. Bipolar plate for the current density and distance of single-factor test. Concluded that industry should adopt a lower current density and long silver electrolysis water electrolysis time, and in the design of electrolytic cell to the maximum extent possible when decreasing the clearance in order to enhance the efficiency and reduce costs.
