Selective recovery of platinum from spent autocatalyst solution by thiourea modified magnetic biocarbons

Abstract The precious platinum group metals distributed in urban industrial products should be recycled because of their rapid decline in the contents through excessive mining. In this work, thiourea modified magnetic biocarbons are prepared via an energy-efficient microwave-assisted activation and...
