Electronic Equipment: Methods for Metal Recovery

More about the book

The book explores the growing issue of electronic waste, particularly focusing on Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), which are valuable yet environmentally hazardous components of electronic devices. It highlights the inefficiencies of conventional recycling methods that consume excessive energy and produce harmful by-products. By reviewing various literature on metal recovery techniques from PCBs, the work aims to assess the effectiveness of these methods in minimizing social, environmental, and economic impacts, thereby promoting more sustainable recycling practices.
