Project Summary
The program focuses on preserving tantalum, a key material used in cell phone recycling. Tantalum is derived from coltan, a metallic ore mined in the rainforests of the Republic of Congo, and is an essential component in capacitors for electronic devices like cell phones and laptops. Through effective cell phone recycling, tantalum can be reused, contributing to environmental sustainability.
