Recovery of Au(III) and Ag(II) from e-waste solution using green organic solvent through solvent extraction system / Zarif Hannan Zulkafli

As the world undergoes rapid urbanization, the usage of natural sources growth has increased rapidly to a greater amount causing the rate of waste generation to increase align with it. On top of that, extracting gold and silver from wastes of electronic equipment (E-waste) is a sustainable strategy...
