PH-Dependent selective extraction of gold(iii) from synthetic solution and computer motherboard leachate using a hybrid nanocomposite.

ABSTRACT: Recycling gold from electronic waste offers significant benefits for both environmental protection and resource sustainability. However, this process presents considerable challenges due to high costs, prolonged processing times, and interference from coexisting metals. In this study, we synthesized a hybrid mesoporous nanocomposite comprising platelets-like CoNi₂S₄ incorporated with g-C₃N₄ nanosheets (CoNi₂S₄@g-C₃N₄) for the selective recovery of gold (Au(iii)) ions from spent computer motherboards. Comprehensive characterization of the CoNi₂S₄@g-C₃N₄ nanocomposite was conducted, including its physicochemical properties, textural and structural characteristic
