The growing demand for non-ferrous metals over the last centuries has resulted in constant extraction of natural resources - in case of many crucial and most widely used raw materials, accessible and high-quality deposits are already close to being depleted. Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) constitutes a rich, secondary source of metals, the amount of which in the EU is increasing every year. In order to increase resource efficiency and contribute to a circular economy, it is necessary to improve the processing and recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment at the end of an electronic lifetime. !e choice of a suitable method of processing this waste is vital due to the complex and materially diverse composition of WEEE. Waste printed circuit boards (WPCBs) that constitute approx. 3-5% of WEEE by weight are of particular importance from both environmental and economic point of view. The article investigates the recovery of Cu, Ag and Al from WPCBs using an industrial fungal strain of Aspergillus niger. The bioleaching process was carried out using 3 methods (one-step, two-step and spent medium) in an incubator with shake depending on the contact time and pulp density. !e research presented in the article aimed at assessing the usefulness of the biotechnological method for leaching of selected metals from e-waste. The results indicate that it is possible to mobilise metals from the WPCBs using microorganisms.

Rosnący popyt na metale nieżelazne w ciągu ostatnich stuleci wywierał stałą presję na zasoby naturalne. W przypadku wielu ważnych i najczęściej używanych surowców na wyczerpaniu są już złoża łatwo dostępne i wysokiej jakości. Bogate, wtórne źródło metali stanowią odpady elektryczne i elektroniczne, których ilość w UE corocznie wzrasta. W celu zwiększenia efektywności gospodarowania zasobami i przyczynienia się do gospodarki o obiegu zamkniętym niezbędne jest usprawnienie przetwarzania i recyklingu urządzeń elektronicznych (WEEE) pod koniec ich życia. Dobór odpowiedniej metody przetwarzania tych odpadów jest bardzo ważny ze względu na złożony i różnorodny, pod względem materiałowym, skład zużytego WEEE. Szczególne znaczenie zarówno pod kątem środowiskowym jak i gospodarczym mają odpadowe obwody drukowane (WPCBs) stanowiące 3-5% wagowych WEEE. W artykule badano odzysk Cu, Ag i Al z WPCBs z wykorzystaniem przemysłowego szczepu grzyba pleśniowego Aspergillus niger. Proces bioługowania prowadzono 3 metodami (jednoetapowy, dwuetapowy, z wykorzystaniem pożywki zawierającej metabolity w inkubatorze z wytrząsaniem w zależności od czasu kontaktu oraz różnych gęstości zawiesiny. Badania przedstawione w artykule miały na celu ocenę przydatności metody biotechnologicznej do ługowania wybranych metali z odpadów elektronicznych. Wyniki wskazują, że jest możliwe mobilizowanie metali z WPCBs przy użyciu mikroorganizmów.
