  • Publication number: 20110174739
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a lithium recovery device comprising a separator reservoir and manganese oxide, a lithium recovery method using the same, and a lithium adsorption/desorption system. The separator reservoir includes a vacant space therein and an outer wall made of a polymer or a membrane of other useful materials. The manganese oxide is contained, as an adsorbent, in the vacant space inside the separator reservoir. The lithium adsorption/desorption system enables lithium recovery through adsorption and desorption of lithium dissolved in seawater using a lithium adsorbent prepared with the manganese oxide in one system, wherein the manganese oxide can be used as a lithium adsorbent with high lithium selectivity. The invention uses a separator reservoir including an outer wall made of a porous polymer or a membrane of other useful materials.

  • Publication number: 20100071507
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for recovering valuable metals contained in printed circuit boards of waste electronic machine, and more particularly, to a method for recovering valuable metals from waste printed circuit boards by separating several plastic layers laminated using an organic solution and then separating plastic components from metal components using an electrostatic separation process. According to the present invention, it is possible to separate the non-metal containing the plastic components and the metal components from the waste printed circuit boards by separating the several plastic layers laminated via simple pre-process using an organic solvent and obtain the metal recovery ratio of 99.99% via the pre-process and an electrostatic separation process.
