Abstract

Key findings

  • Improved zinc recovery rates of up to 90% using MECs compared to traditional methods.
  • Optimization of MECs led to a 25% increase in current density and a 30% decrease in energy consumption.
  • The study demonstrated the potential of MECs for scalable and sustainable zinc recovery.
