E-Waste Recycling
We provide safe, secure, cost effective and environmentally
conscious e-waste recycling solutions.
Electronic waste, "e-waste" or "Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment" ("WEEE") is a waste type consisting of any
broken or unwanted electrical or electronic appliance.
Protect important data and intellectual property
Used semiconductor, IC and computer chips can contain
important and sensitive data.
We provide solutions to help your company properly dispose
these ewaste so your data and intellectual properties are
protected.
Recover recyclable metals contained in e-waste
Examples of elements in bulk: lead, tin, copper, silicon,
carbon, iron and aluminium.
List of examples of devices containing these elements
Almost all electronics contain lead & tin (as solder) and
copper (as wire & PCB tracks), though the use of lead-free
solder is now spreading rapidly.
* Lead: Solder, CRT Monitors (Lead in glass), Lead-acid
battery
* Tin: Solder
* Copper: copper wire, Printed circuit board tracks
* Aluminium: nearly all electronic goods using more than a few
watts of power (heatsinks)
* Iron: Steel chassis, cases & fixings
* Silicon: glass, transistors, ICs, Printed circuit
boards.
* nickel & cadmium: Nickel-cadmium rechargeable
batteries
* Lithium: Lithium-ion battery
* Zinc: plating for steel parts
* Gold: connector plating, primarily in computer
equipment
* Americium: Smoke alarms (radioactive source)
* Germanium: ***0s & ***0s transistorised electronics
(transistors)
* Mercury: fluorescent tubes (numerous applications), tilt
switches (pinball games, mechanical doorbells)
* Sulphur:Lead-acid battery
* Carbon: Steel, plastics, resistors. In almost all electronic
equipment
