However, this approach isn&#8217;t feasible for old electronic devices, or &#8216;e-waste,&#8217; because they contain small amounts of many different materials that cannot be readily separated. Now, in ACS Omega, researchers report a selective, small-scale microrecycling strategy, which they use to convert old printed circuit boards and monitor components into a new type of strong metal coating.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2020-07-e-waste-strong-coating-metal.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Transforming e-waste into a strong, protective coating for metal<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A typical recycling process converts large quantities of items made of a single material into more of the same.
