The extraction of metals from e-waste is currently not well understood. In this regard, a promising method for the extraction of metals was chosen, namely the biotechnological method. E-waste includes various categories of waste. This complicates the search and development of a universal method for disposing of electronic waste. In this regard, one category of e-waste was selected, namely mobile phone screens. The article presents the results of experimental studies on assessing the efficiency of metal sorption from mobile phone screens by microscopic algae at various parameters of biosorption.
