Chinese researchers have discovered a fast, low-cost and environmentally cleaner method for extracting gold from electronic waste, that could significantly reshape e-waste recycling worldwide and ...

Many electronic items you use daily, including your laptops, chargers, and smartphones, contain a tiny amount of gold. This is because gold is an excellent conductor of electricity and doesn’t rust or ...

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 ...

Thiosulfate leaching is emerging as a promising alternative to traditional cyanidation methods in gold extraction. This process utilises thiosulfate as a lixiviant, offering enhanced environmental ...

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 ...

In a remarkable leap forward for green chemistry, researchers at the School of Life and Environmental Science, Shaoxing University, China, have developed an innovative method to efficiently adsorb and ...

The primary objective of the initial test work as reported for Project CAVM-20073-001 was to conduct scoping level test work that would lead to the development of a flowsheet to recover gold (Lang and ...

Justin M. Chalker is an inventor on patents associated with the gold leaching and recovery technology. Both patents are wholly owned by Flinders University. This research was supported financially by ...
