Innovative Hydrometallurgical Processes to recover Metals from WEEE including lamps and batteries - Demonstration (HYDROWEEE DEMO)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2017,
The recycling business is traditionally dominated by SMEs. In the last 5 years a general trend in the electronics recycling sector to bigger companies is very visible. Multinational, multi-sector companies are buying several smaller recyclers every year.Hence the previous project HydroWEEE (03/2009–02/2012) dealt with the recovery of rare and precious metals from WEEE. The idea has been to develop ...

Reclamation of Gallium, Indium and Rare-Earth Elements from Photovoltaics, Solid-State Lighting and Electronics Waste (RECLAIM)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Prospective global supply and demand for gallium, indium and other key metals show an increasing discrepancy, amongst others due to the explosive growth of green technologies such as photovoltaics (PV) and solid-state lighting (SSL). While their primary production is highly controlled by a few countries, recycling systems to reclaim these materials from discarded products are not yet in place. Thi ...

Innovative Hydrometallurgical Processes to recover Metals from WEEE including lamps and batteries (HydroWEEE)
Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 29, 2012,
The recycling business is traditionally dominated by SMEs. In the last 2-3 years a general trend in the electronics recycling sector to bigger companies is very visible. Multinational, multisector companies are buying several smaller recyclers every year. This trend is caused by 2 factors: • Many countries transposed the WEEE- and Battery Directives in a way relying heavily on collective systems. ...
