Tristin Pratt MS Defense - May 5th

Tristin Pratt - MS Defense Announcement Municipal Landfill Leachate Inorganic Analysis Focusing on Detecting Valuable Metals Major Professor: Dr. Inez Hua Friday, May 5th at 1:00 PM Zoom<https://bit.ly/41wqkFJ> Ecological Sciences and Engineering Interdisciplinary Graduate Program Division of Environmental and Ecological Engineering Abstract: Recent research suggests that waste electronics thrown away by consumers could amount to $37.5M of potentially recoverable metals in single landfill. Rare and useful metals may have a large variance in presence from one landfill to another depending on factors such as age and waste management policies. The EPA in 2018 reports that 2.51 million tons of nonferrous metals are generated in MSW landfills, which could contain ample opportunity for recovering metals of high economic value. The nonferrous waste metals include waste consumer electronic devices disposed to landfills, which contain critically important and rare metals. A method to completely dissolve and analyze pumped landfill leachate resulted in quantifiable and positive detections of Platinum, (Post-) Transition, and Lanthanide group metals in the landfill leachates. Everyone is welcome! Attached is the defense announcement.
