Journal ArticleDOI
Mass balance and life cycle assessment of the waste electrical and electronic equipment management system implemented in Lombardia Region (Italy).
TL;DR: Suggestions for improving the performance of the WEEE management system in Lombardia Region (Italy) in the year 2011 are given, as well as an indication for a more-in-depth analysis for the toxicity categories and a proposal for a new characterisation method for WEEE.
Journal ArticleDOI
Materials recovery from waste liquid crystal displays: A focus on indium.
TL;DR: The experimental results demonstrated that indium partitioning between the bottom (salt-rich) and the top (PEG- rich) phase is quite independent on the composition of the system, since 80-95% indium is extracted in the bottom phase and 5-20% in the top phase.

TL;DR: In this paper, a pyro-hydrometallurgical approach involving a thermal treatment was proposed to convert rare-earth phosphates into oxides, which can be more easily leached by mineral acids (HCl and H2SO4) in a further leaching step.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recovery of rare earths from the green lamp phosphor LaPO4:Ce3+,Tb3+ (LAP) by dissolution in concentrated methanesulphonic acid
TL;DR: In this article, a solvometallurgical leaching step with concentrated methanesulphonic acid (MSA) at temperatures between 433 K to 473 K, followed by solvent extraction with the acidic extractant di-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) was developed for the recovery of rare earths from terbium-rich lamp phosphor waste.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lithium iron phosphate batteries recycling: An assessment of current status
TL;DR: In this article, the most recent advances in lithium iron phosphate batteries recycling are presented, and after discharging operations and safe dismantling and pretreatments, the recovery of materials fr...
