Pulling Gold out of E-Waste Suddenly Becomes Super-Profitable Researchers from ETH Zurich have developed an innovative and cost-effective method for extracting high-purity gold from electronic waste (e-waste), yielding a return of $50 for every $1 invested in the process. Surprisingly, the breakthrough substance used for gold extraction was discovered in cheesemaking. This new technique not only presents a sustainable approach to recycling e-waste but also demonstrates significant commercial potential. The study outlines that, after accounting for the costs associated with sourcing materials and the energy required for extraction, the cost of recovering 1 gram of gold from e-waste is 50 times less than the market value of the gold obtained. This discovery could revolutionize the way we recycle precious metals from discarded electronics. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Egypt's Bold Move: $1 Billion in Treasury Bills Launched READ MORE "I've Been Warning About THIS For a YEAR, Well Here It Is" Decoding the Banking Sector Plunge READ MORE Central Banks Tread Cautiously in Final Stretch of Inflation Battle READ MORE STOCK BUBBLE: You Need To See This Data – 1929Again?
