Green metallurgical process uses surface energy to extract and refine metals from waste alloys

A team of scientists from the University of Melbourne and King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM) has made a discovery that could transform how metals are extracted and purified from crude metals and waste alloys. This new method, based on electrocapillary principles, enables the selective separation of metals from liquid alloys using differences in their surface energy, a concept previously unexplored in metallurgy.
