Investigation of a hydrometallurgical process route to recover metals from waste printed circuit boards
The loss of valuable materials such as base and precious metals is increasing due to the increase in waste electronic and electric waste (WEEE). Most of these metals in WEEE are on the printed circuit boards (PCBs). This study aims to compare different pre-treatment methods to recycle copper from PC...
