#china #recycling #science This talk explains an advanced flash recycling process that uses high-temperature chemistry to rapidly extract critical metals (lithium, indium, gallium, rare earths, etc.) from electronic waste with high purity and low waste, offering a more efficient, water-free alternative to conventional mining and refining. It positions this method as a strategic tool in the circular economy to reduce dependence on Chinese supply chains for critical materials.
