The company's main business: silver electrolysis unit, gold electrolysis unit, nitrogen oxide waste gas treatment system equipment, platinum, palladium and rhodium refining and purification production and other common equipment

Gold Content in E-Waste

E-waste contains small but significant quantities of gold. For instance, one ton of mobile phone circuit boards can yield approximately 300-350 grams of gold, far exceeding the gold content in traditional mining, which is about 1-2 grams per ton of ore.

Economic Feasibility

  1. Cost: E-waste gold recovery requires lower initial investment compared to mining but needs advanced technology and environmental management.
  2. Revenue: High gold content in e-waste ensures substantial extraction amounts, offering significant economic returns. Other valuable metals can also be recovered, enhancing profitability.

Environmental Impact

  1. Reducing Mining: E-waste recovery decreases the need for natural resource extraction, mitigating environmental damage.
  2. Pollution Control: Proper recycling reduces the release of harmful substances from e-waste into soil and water.
