Abstract

El presente proyecto trata de la materia prima que se obtiene de la basura electrónica. La basura electrónica es todo aquel dispositivo alimentado por energía eléctrica cuya vida útil finalizó. Esta basura genera el 70 % de la contaminación por metales pesados en los rellenos sanitarios y basurales. Estos metales tóxicos pueden ser cadmio, mercurio, plomo, selenio, o arsénico, los cuales son altamente contaminantes para el medio ambiente y la salud humana. Por la cantidad de minerales que se pueden conseguir, al reciclado de los residuos electrónicos se lo conoce como minería urbana y se procede a la refinación de metales preciosos.
