- •
A pilot plant was designed for the treatment of small E-waste via hydrometallurgy.
- •
Life Cycle Assessment was performed to analyse the associated environmental impacts.
- •
Nitric acid leaching contributes mostly to the impacts (from 40% to 80%).
- •
Environmental performances could be improved by optimizing the adsorption step.
