Recover value from materials in discarded electronics
Electronic equipment contains a mix of materials, including metals, plastics and glass. Sorting and appropriate processing can help recover suitable materials and reduce the amount sent to disposal. Actual recovery depends on the equipment and processing route.
01
Sorting and assessment
Equipment and materials are assessed so they can be directed towards appropriate reuse, recovery or disposal routes.
02
A circular approach
Recovering usable resources helps conserve materials and supports more circular use of resources.
