Recovery of critical and precious metals from E-Waste

Ippolito N., Birloaga I., Ferella F., Innocenzi V., De Michelis I., (Corresponding) Vegliò F.

Topic:

Electric and electronic waste

Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is the fastest growing waste stream in Europe. This waste contains a high amount of critical and valuable metals as the rare earths defined critical materials from European Commission (2010) and the precious metals. Exhaust fluorescent lamps are...Read more

Waste Printed Circuit Boards (WPCBs) as a potential source for the recovery of rare earth elements through bioleaching.

(Corresponding) Gonzalez Baez A., Pantoja Muñoz L., Garelick H., Purchase D.

Topic:

Electric and electronic waste

Rare earth elements (e.g., neodymium, dysprosium and praseodymium) have contributed to the miniaturization, energy efficiency, durability, and high speed of many technology gadgets. Due to their electric conductivity, magnetic, luminescence and optical properties, rare earth elements (REE) are...Read more
