Journal ArticleDOI
Recycling of batteries: a review of current processes and technologies
TL;DR: In this paper, the current status of technologies applied to recycle portable batteries, e.g. lead acid will not be described here, are reviewed and a review of the technologies involved in the collection, sorting and processing of portable batteries is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recovery of copper from printed circuit boards scraps by mechanical processing and electrometallurgy.
Hugo Marcelo Veit,Andréa Moura Bernardes,Jane Zoppas Ferreira,Jorge Alberto Soares Tenório,Célia de Fraga Malfatti,Célia de Fraga Malfatti +5 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the technical viability of recovering copper using mechanical processing followed by an electrometallurgical technique and the copper obtained by electrowinning is above 98% in most of the tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Utilization of magnetic and electrostatic separation in the recycling of printed circuit boards scrap
Hugo Marcelo Veit,T.R. Diehl,Anderson Paulo Salami,J.S. Rodrigues,Andréa Moura Bernardes,Jorge Alberto Soares Tenório +5 more
TL;DR: Printed circuit boards, which are used in personal computers, were studied in order to recover the metals in the circuit boards through mechanical processing, such as crushing, screening, as well as magnetic and electrostatic separation, to demonstrate the feasibility of using these processes to separate metal fractions from polymers and ceramics.
Journal ArticleDOI
An overview on the current processes for the recycling of batteries
TL;DR: In this article, the main battery-recycling processes currently used and those that are being developed are described and discussed, as well as technological options for the recycling of lead acid, Zn-C, ZN-MnO 2, nickel metal hydride, nickel-cadmium, lithium and lithium ion batteries.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Lean & Green Model for a production cell
TL;DR: The Lean & Green Model as discussed by the authors adopts a Kaizen approach to improve mass and energy flows in manufacturing environments that already possess the necessary deployment level to apply lean thinking The model was designed for, and is limited to, the cell level, which is the first stream level of a manufacturing business that supports the principles of lean thinking.
