High voltage electrostatic separation was widely used in separating conducting particles from non-conducting particles. Mixed particles with particle size of 0.6–1.2 mm were the optimal size for high-voltage electrostatic separation (Zhan and Xu, 2008). The crushed mixed particles of waste PCBs just met the requirements of high …
