The team was led by Rice University\u2019s James Tour, the T.T. and W.F. Chao Professor of Chemistry and professor of materials science and nanoengineering. Their findings are detailed in Nature Chemical Engineering.<\/p>\n<p>The scientists found that their method effectively separates tantalum from capacitors, gallium from discarded light-emitting diodes and indium from used solar conductive films. By precisely controlling the reaction conditions, the team is said to have achieved a metal purity of over 95 per cent and a yield of over 85 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>The method also holds promise for the extraction of lithium and rare Earth elements, said Shichen Xu, a postdoctoral researcher at Rice and co-first author of the study. \u201cThis breakthrough addresses the pressing issue of critical metal shortages and negative environmental impacts while economically incentivising recycling industries on a global scale with a more efficient recovery process,\u201d Xu said.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theengineer.co.uk\/content\/news\/metals-from-e-waste-recycled-more-sustainably\">The Engineer<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/3-597\/\">Metals from e-waste recycled more sustainably<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,4065,2108,764],"class_list":["post-133976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-ewaste","tag-metal","tag-recycling"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=133976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133976\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=133976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=133976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=133976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
