· Tantalum, with a current end‐of‐life recycling rate of less than 1%, has been intermittently discussed as critical. Even though the specificity of tantalum applications and high‐mass fractions of tantalum in relevant components provide good boundary conditions, recycling barriers hinder the successful implementation of recycling technologies.
· 5.5. Recycling of Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) The populated PCBs, constituting 3 to 5% by weight of total e-waste, have rich value of metals such as copper, silver, gold, palladium, platinum, tantalum and other metals in traces level. The recovery of all the metals requires professional skill, expensive equipments and machineries.
· For example, while most informal e-waste recycling sectors in developing countries are focusing on recovering gold (as well as copper) from waste PCBs, they are using extremely crude methods with around 28–30% extraction efficiency (Arora et al., 2008), whereas the gold recovery efficiency in the formal sector has the potential to be as high as 99% (Lu et al., 2010). This type of
· This paper presents the preliminary experimental results for recycling of printed circuit boards (PCB) from obsolete computers in Brazil aiming at tin recovery by electrowinning. Printed circuit boards were dissembled, cut off in small pieces and fed into a cylinder mill. The powder obtained was leached using aqueous solutions 2.18N H 2SO 4
· Upon recovery of the captured gold, a small gold ingot (>99.6% purity) was formed (Fig. 4B) in the vial. Lastly, we calculated the rough economics of gold recovery from PCBs, as e-waste recycling in the commercial sector would be driven by the profits of precious metal recovery and resale.
Step 3 Prepare Electronics for Gold Extraction. In this step, you will need to take your electronics device and pull out any PCBs from it. On the PCBs, look for gold color. When you find gold, strip all components off the PCB. If necessary, break the PCB in order to fit it into beaker.
· PCB supports and connects electronic components using conductive tracks, pads and features made from copper sheets that are then “printed” onto an electrical insulator that is usually made of a fibreglass epoxy resin. Once the copper sheet adheres to the fibreglass, the circuits are etched out in a design specific to the needs of the designer.
· So don’t need to worry and learn completely about e-waste recycling. In this blog, you can learn about gold recovery from all computer parts, cell phone boards, telecommunication boards, and much much more. You can also learn about gold refining, palladium refining, silver refining. So, let’s see some items which have a good quantity of
· In this work, various WPCB treatment methods as well as WPCB recycling techniques divided into direct treatment (landfill and incineration), primitive recycling technology (pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy, biometallurgy and primitive full recovery of NMF-non metallic fraction), and advanced recycling technology (mechanical separation, direct use and modification of NMF) are reviewed and

Apply all safety gear correctly before working with chemicals and do this outside as the fumes are nasty. Put the gold fingers and clean circuit boards in the coffee pot, in another container mix two parts muriatic acid and one part hydrogen peroxide and add to the coffee pot until it just covers the gold fingers and wait a week giving it a stir daily.
· To maximise recycling efficiencies and consequent raw material recovery, mutual optimisation across this logistic chain is needed. For example, the reduction of EoL devices into material fractions printed circuit boards (PCBs), wiring, ferrous metals, plastics, glass etc. is key to effective recovery

· Recycling of PCBs can only be profitable with substantial gold recovery. Thiosulfate and thiourea seem to be promising one alternative to cyanide for gold leaching. An interesting approach for gold recovery is the persulfate based leaching where all base metals including silver dissolve keeping gold in the solid residue, which can be later purified by melting.
Tantalum, with a current end‐of‐life recycling rate of less than 1%, has been intermittently discussed as critical. Even though the specificity of tantalum applications and high‐mass fractions of tantalum in relevant components provide good boundary conditions, recycling barriers hinder the successful implementation of recycling technologies.
