Preparation method of basic copper chloride and its application in animal production
Basic copper chloride is a copper source with a high copper content(58.12%copper content),insoluble in water and organic solvents.Compared with copper sulfate,it has does not absorb moisture and clumps,and is easy to mix in feed.It has less damage to vitamins and lower degree of oil oxidation in feed.At present,feed grade basic copper chloride circulating is usually made from copper containing etching solution generated during the production process of printed circuit boards.Other raw materials,such as industrial copper containing wastewater and waste residue,and chemical raw materials(mainly copper chloride),are used to synthesize basic copper chloride,which is relatively rare in industrial production due to high costs.Basic copper chloride has significant effects on animal growth performance,reproductive performance,immunity,and intestinal health.In this paper,the preparation method of basic copper chloride and its application in animal production were reviewed,and the reference for promoting the efficient utilization of basic copper chloride in animal production was provided.
