Valorisation of waste polyethylene by blending with ethylene-vinyl acetate and incorporation of a new type of compatibilizer

(Corresponding) Simon-Stőger L., Varga C.
Topic: 
Solid waste management
Nowadays polyethylene is one of the polymers produced in the greatest volume, therefore, parallelly the amount of generated waste polyethylene (w-HDPE) significant as well. Valorisation and recycling of w-HDPE can be realized by blending with different types of polymers and/or elastomers in order...Read more

Prior electro-mechanical separation to improve metal recovery from ceramic-rich electronic waste using bioleaching

(Corresponding) Baniasadi M., Ray D., Graves J., Bolton R., Renshaw D., (Corresponding) Farnaud S.
Topic: 
Solid waste management
PCBs, as one of the most valuable streams of e-waste, are a considerable source of precious metals, but also contain considerable amounts of plastic and ceramic. These non-metallic fractions interfere with and can inhibit the efficiency of metal recovery, particularly for precious and rare earth...Read more
