Abstract:Used electronic inverters were processed thermally to eliminate organic matrix components through oxidative incineration (IN), oxidative steam gasification (SG), and pyrolysis (PY). Such prepared material was melted at 1250°C with sodium/calcium silicate waste glass under reductive and oxidative atmospheres. The highest Cu recovery in the form of a gravitationally separated metallic phase was found for oxidative smelting of the PY sample and reductive smelting of the IN sample. Recovery of precious metals was … Show more
