Cover Story: This study introduces a modular microflow injection analysis (micro-FIA) system based on 3D-printed microfluidic platforms for real-time, online monitoring of Cu(II) in bioleaching processes from e-waste residues. The micro-FIA system incorporates a novel Tesla valve, replacing traditional solenoid valves to enhance durability and reduce maintenance. It accurately determines Cu(II) across a wide concentration range (34-2000 mg L−1) with a low detection limit (9 mg L−1). Our results demonstrate high precision, reproducibility, and applicability to real samples with complex matrices, offering significant cost and efficiency advantages over conventional methods.
