Eco-friendly graphene composite recovers gold from e-waste

  • A new eco-friendly composite material made from graphene oxide and chitosan has been developed to extract gold from electronic waste.
  • The composite is 10 times more efficient than previous adsorbents, filtering gold without an external power source.
  • The combination of graphene's high surface area and chitosan's reducing agent properties enhances the gold recovery process.
  • The composite material shows high extraction efficiency, environmentally friendly properties, and potential applications in recovering other valuable metals and environmental cleaning efforts.
