[march]IIT-Delhi researchers develop technology to recycle e-waste

Question 1

Process?

Answer 1

• E-waste che tukde karayache (shredding) ani high temperature vaprun decompose karayacha (pyrolysis) -> It will yield liquid and gaseous fuels, leaving behind a metal-rich solid fraction.
• On further separation using a novel technique, the leftover solid residue yields a 90-95% pure metal mixture and some carbonaceous materials.
• The carbonaceous material is further converted to aerogel for oil spillage cleaning, dye removal, carbon dioxide capture, and use in supercapacitors.
