But when the toxicity of reagents are taken into account, it is an inevitable trend for non- cyanide leaching to replace cyanide leaching. With further research, thiourea leaching and iodide leaching are both likely to reduce the cost of the process and to be more reliable in technology, so as to replace cyanide leaching. 4. Conclusions In summary, leaching technologies mentioned above are technically feasible. However, in order to develop an environment-friendly technique for recovery of precious metals from waste PCBs, we should pay more attention to evaluating the environmental impact of techniques. A critical comparison of seven leaching methods is analyzed based on three-scale AHP. The results suggest that thiourea leaching and iodide leaching make more possible to replace cyanide leaching. Along with the further studies on this field, those leaching process with potential environment benefits will be more economically feasible in the future. Feasible leaching method (A)
