Recycling E-Waste

With the number of technological devices in use today, e-waste recycling serving Atlanta plays an important role when it comes to managing waste disposal. You’ve probably recycled a television, computer, or cell phone in the past, but have you ever wondered about the electronic recycling process? If so, then watch this video to see what happens when you recycle e-waste.

Most devices that have a cord or a circuit board can be processed at an e-waste recycling center. Using centrifugal forces, each electronic device that makes it to the plant is disassembled. Then, glass, plastic, copper, aluminum, and steel pieces are sorted and processed to be made into new materials.
