enforced，says the UN(2010). It means that those countries which have sharp rise in electronics sales need to establish the collection and recycling facilities‚ so‚ according to Achim Steiner(2010)‚ a wide range of valuable metals including silver‚ gold‚ palladium‚ copper and indium can be reused. In addition‚ e-waste recycling can also recover valuable natural resources‚ curb hearth problems and supply more jobs. Thirdly‚ recycling can turn waste to useful things. Wastewater will lead a water-borne disease

In this work‚ the Fe3O4 NPs were synthesized by a co-precipitation method. The prepared Fe3O4 particles were dispersed well in water and stay stable for several days. FT-IR spectra of Fe3O4‚ mercaptosuccinic acid and mercaptosuccinic acid functionalized Fe3O4 are shown in Figure 1(a-c)‚ respectively. In Figure 1a‚ the sharp band at about 585 cm-1 corresponds to the characteristic Fe–O vibration peak and the bands at around 3420 cm-1 are due to the stretching vibrations of the hydroxyls (–OH) on the
