In this study, the dissolution of copper present in printed circuit boards (PCBs) was investigated using different choline chloride (ChCl) based deep eutectic solvents (DES) at a temperature 100 °C for 24 h. According to results, two-component combinations ChCl-PTSA (p-toluene sulfonic acid) and ChCl-ACA (acetic achieved nearly complete extraction efficiency. contrast, ChCl-EG (ethylene glycol) showed less than 1% The mechanism examined DFT simulations. COSMO analysis reveals hydrogen bond between ChCl's ion (negative potential) PTSA's hydroxyl group. Mulliken charges show that DES formation causes charge redistribution, increasing polarization within sulfonate group stabilizing structure via enhanced electrostatic interactions. addition, with Cu(I) Cu(II) distinct interaction patterns: primarily interacts groups, disrupting original bonding network, while shows potential coordination both influencing electronic properties DES.

Abstract Nowadays, the recycling of valuable metals from spent lithium-ion batteries (LIB) using hydrometallurgical processes is on rise. Therefore, safer leaching media for dissolution and environmentally friendly chemicals are essential. In this research, a feasibility study recovery metals, including lithium, cobalt, manganese, nickel, cathode LIB in acidic conditions pomegranate peel (PP) as green reductant was evaluated. To optimize process, effects various parameters, such CH3COOH concentration, temperature, time, PP/LIB, were investigated response surface methodology (RSM) experimental design. Based ANOVA, linear models obtained Co, Mn, Li recovery, except Ni model. According to results, temperature identified most crucial factor Ni, Li, due facile hydrolysis PP at elevated temperatures. optimization results cathodes presence PP, predicted values optimum point 320 min, 5.5 M 92°C PP/LIB 3.5 g/g 83.3, 85.9, 84.9, 91.2%, respectively, which showed good agreement with calculated recovery. FTIR characterization samples absence indicated that glucose molecules produced during immediately consumed by compounds. Furthermore, kinetics demonstrated mechanisms followed Avrami
