Popis: Spent liquid crystal displays (LCDs) are a secondary source of precious/strategic metals, including indium (In). The present study involved optimizing the solubilization of this strategic element from samples of indium tin oxide (ITO) glass prepared from LCD screens of computer monitors and laptop screens. The influence of operating conditions on In solubilization, as well as optimum conditions for sulfuric acid leaching were defined by a Box-Behnken-type experimental design methodology. Optimum operating conditions include a leaching step for 30 min at a temperature of 70 °C in the presence of 0.4 N H
