In 2022, humans produced an estimated 62 million tonnes of electronic waste – enough to fill more than 1.5 million garbage trucks. This was up 82 per cent from 2010 and is expected to rise to 82 ...
At Flinders University, scientists have cracked a cleaner and greener way to extract gold—not just from ore, but also from our mounting piles of e-waste. By using a compound normally found in pool ...
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 ...
