Cell phnes, tablets, laptps, smart-watches: the mdern wrld is packed with a lt f devices that bring us cnnectivity, entertainment and infrmatin. Our hunger fr the latest mdels leads t the “thrwaway” culture, which means cnsumers ften thrw away ld devices as sn as new nes cme t the market, a habit that can have a significant effect n waste streams and the envirnment.
With cncerns abut e-waste grwing, sme cmpanies are nw turning t chemistry t develp slutins t recycle items like ld cell phnes, extracting value at the same time. One such example is the wrk being carried ut by Mint Innvatin, a clean tech firm based in Auckland, New Zealand. “We’ve develped a bilgical prcess fr recvering valuable metals frm electrnic waste,” said Ollie Crush, the cmpany’s chief scientific fficer.
Crush explained that Mint Innvatin’s system included grinding(磨碎)waste up int a pwder. “The reasn why we must d this is that we need t make sure that we’re expsing all the metal cntained within t a chemical filtering(过滤)prcess,” he added.
When it cmes t recvering a valuable material like gld, the technique used by Mint Innvatin has a number f steps. Accrding t a vide, chemicals disslve (溶解) the pwdered waste int a slutin, with any materials that haven’t disslved filtered ut. Micrbes are then added t the mix. Gld atms catch n t them in a prcess called “selective bisrptin”. Next, the micrbes cated gld are filtered, prducing a paste which is then turned int a slid, “recycled” gld.
“Nearly 50% f the value f e-waste cmes frm the gld,” Camern Weber, a senir lecturer at Chemical Sciences, said. “In fact, there’s actually mre gld in e-waste as a cncentratin than there is in gld that’s been mined, which shws yu the value f being able t take yur e-waste and recycle and reuse sme f the elements that are fund in it,” he added.
Lking ahead, Crush, explained the prcess culd ptentially have a number f interesting applicatins. “The future fr Mint Innvatin is t prve that ur technlgy wrks with a number f different materials,” he said. “S, we’ll just keep trying t see where ur micrbial prcess makes mre sense.”
