Researchers have developed a new type of material that's 10 times more efficient at extracting gold from e-waste than previous adsorbents. Developed by chemists and materials scientists at the ...

ETH Zurich researchers have developed a sustainable method to recover gold from electronic waste. The method uses a sponge made from denatured whey proteins that selectively adsorb gold ions. The ...

An interdisciplinary team of experts in green chemistry, engineering and physics at Flinders University in Australia has developed a safer and more sustainable approach to extract and recover gold ...

Phase 4A column leach testing on the Rangefront Zone included 24 variability composites from large-diameter (“PQ”) drill core representing the range of rock types and gold (“Au”) grades encountered in ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Electronic waste poses one of the fastest growing waste challenges worldwide, with over 50 million tons generated annually. Yet hidden in obsolete devices lies substantial amounts ...
