An innovative and eco-friendly approach to recover gold (and copper) from gold fingers of waste printed circuit boards

Sousa P., Martelo L., Bastos M., Marques A., (Corresponding) Soares H.
Topic: 
Sustainable supply of raw materials
Recycling waste printed circuit boards (WPCBs) is a complex problem worldwide and sustainable technologies are required. So, this work aims to offer an innovative (an European patent was submitted, EP 20216239.2 1) and more sustainable solution to recover high-value materials (gold and copper) from...Read more

Study Of The Performance Of Ruscus Aculeatus Leaves Alcoholic Extract As Corrosion Inhibitor For Carbon Steel In 1 M HCl Solution

(Corresponding) Farruku M., Xhanari K., Xhaxhiu K., Lame A.
Topic: 
Sustainable supply of raw materials
The addition of corrosion inhibitors is one of the most widely used methods for the protection of metals and alloys from corrosion in various environments. Although synthetic organic compounds have been found to be highly effective in mitigating corrosion, they are often toxic, non-biodegradable,...Read more

The innovative method of testing solid fuels as an answer to safe and sustainable supply of raw materials –the example of coking coal parameters

(Corresponding) Dreger M., (Corresponding) Piotr C., Szymura ., Więcek K., Kocela-Jagiełko A.
Topic: 
Sustainable supply of raw materials
The metallurgical coal (coking coal) has been defined as the critical raw material (CRM) in the European Union. Using that type of coal in the coking plants allows it to produce high quality steel and steel products in steel mill around the world. Coking the metallurgical coal is a really complex...Read more
