Abstract

Recycling method of waste LCD glass is the essential process for developing the total recycling process of LCD pannel. Pulverizing of LCD glass, determination of proper carbonacious foaming agent, the properties of residue from the recovery of valuable materials through an acid leaching process and the feasibility for the foaming of the residue obtained from leaching for indium and tin recovery were investigated for the developing of recycling method of waste LCD glass as industrial feed materials, such as heat insulation materials, sound absorbing materials, carrier of water treatment. Waste LCD glass could be pulverized finely for foaming process. Natural graphite was proper agent for foaming of the residue and the foaming technology of LCD glass would be effective recycling alternatives.

폐 LCD유리의 재활용 방안은 평판 디스플레이용 폐 LCD판넬의 전체 재활용 공정의 확립을 위한 중심요건이다. 본 연구는 폐 LCD유리를 보온단열재, 흡음차음제, 토목용 경량골재 또는 수처리용 담체 등의 원료로 재활용하기 위한 발포공정의 기초공정으로서 폐 LCD유리의 분쇄특성, 적절한 탄소발포제의 선정, 유가물 회수를 위한 산침출 후 잔유된 유리질의 물성 및 이들의 발포화의 문제점을 조사하였다. 폐 LCD유리의 분쇄공정을 통해 발포용 원료로 사용가능한 미분화가 가능하였으며, 고융점을 갖는 LCD 유리의 발포화를 위해서는 결정성 천연흑연이 적절하였으며, 산 침출 후 잔사인 슬러지 상태의 폐유리성분도 발포체의 원료로 재활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
