Components of E-waste for Re-Cycled :

Metals can also be retrieved and recycled to manufacture newer steel products and metals.

You can extract glass from CRTs (Cathode Ray Tubes) of computer monitors and televisions. But there’s a little problem here. CRTS contains several hazardous substances, such as lead. And this is dangerous to both human health and the immediate environment. This makes it difficult to retrieve a glass from CRTs.
However, there are certain steps you may take to ensure safer CRT recycling.
First, separate the CRT from the monitor or television. Then shred the CRT into small pieces. Remove the metals with over-band magnets. This helps you remove ferrous and even non-ferrous objects from that glass.
After this, use washing lines to clear phosphors and oxides from that glass. The last step is called glass sorting. This is where you separate non-leaded from leaded gas. You can then use the extract to make newer screens.

Devices containing mercury may be sent to recycling facilities using specialized technology to eliminate mercury. The end product of this elimination includes metric instruments, dental amalgams, and fluorescent lighting.

There are accredited and specialized companies smelting and recovering resources like tin, gold, silver, copper, palladium, and valuable metals.

When shredded and processed, you can recover aluminum ingots from hard disks. These are particularly useful for automobiles.

Recyclers in various manufacturing industries that remanufacture them take these toners and ink cartridges for recycling. They then use retrieved plastic and metals as raw materials for other products.

You can take your scrap batteries to specialist recyclers to recover cadmium, steel, nickel, and cobalt for re-use in new batteries. They are also useful for fabricating stainless steel.

Apart from the listed objects, there is an endless list of other objects. But, overall, there’s kind of hack to recycling any item or component. And no, e-waste recycling is not a one size fits all approach. However, there is a general way to go about it.

Step-by-Step Process of E-waste Recycling:

• Collecting and Transporting: Here, recyclers place take-back booths or collection bins in specific places. When these bins get filled, the recyclers then transport the e-wastes to recycling facilities and plants.
• Shredding and Sorting: the next step is to shred and sort the e-waste. The success of subsequent separation relies on shredding. And this is why efficiency is essential at this stage. Shredding involves breaking e-waste into smaller pieces for proper sorting. With the use of hands, these tiny prices get sorted and then manually dismantled. This is typically labor-intensive as waste items are, at this stage, separated to retrieve different parts. After this, the materials get categorized into core materials and components. Then, these items get sorted into various categories. Typically, these category includes items that you can re-use as they are and those that require further recycling processes.
• Dust Extraction: The smoothly spread e-waste pieces then get broken down even further. At this point, the dust gets extracted and discarded in an environmentally compliant manner. This way, there is no environmental degradation.
• Magnetic Separation: After this, a strong overhead magnet helps you separate steel and iron from other wastes. This way, you have successfully recycled the steel from the waste stream.
• Water Separation: After this, water separation tech becomes relevant to separate the glass from the plastic. You can then send leads that contain glass to smelters to use in the production of batteries, x-ray tubes, and new CRTs.
• Purification of Waste Stream: the next thing is locating and extracting leftover metals from plastics to purify the waste stream further.
• Preparing Recycled Materials For Sale: The final stage is preparing recycled materials for sale. Here, the materials separated during SSS get prepared for sale as raw materials to produce new electronics.
