Gold recovery from shredder light fraction of E-waste recycling plant by flotation-ammonium thiosulfate leaching.

This paper describes the recovery of gold (Au) from shredder light fraction (SLF) of a recycling plant by flotation and leaching. SLF is typically sent to landfills as waste, but it still contains substantial amounts of Au, and other metals like Cu and Fe. The SLF sample used in this study contains 0.
