"A team of researchers led by Cornell University has created a method to
extract gold from electronic waste and repurpose it as a catalyst to convert
carbon dioxide (CO₂), a major greenhouse gas, into useful organic materials.
This innovative approach could provide a sustainable solution for some of the
50 million tons of e-waste generated annually, of which only 20% is currently
recycled. Amin Zadehnazari, a postdoctoral researcher in the lab of Alireza
Abbaspourrad, the Yongkeun Joh Associate Professor of Food Chemistry and
Ingredient Technology in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences,
highlighted the potential environmental and practical benefits of this
process."
