Why Recycle E-waste?

  • The concentration of recycled gold in E-waste is higher than what is found in naturally occurring mineral ore.
  • Other high value materials that can be recycled from electronics include: Copper, Silver, and Platinum.
  • For every 10,000 tons of E-waste that are dumped in a landfill or incinerated, one job is created. For every 10,000 tons of E-waste that are reused or recycled, 250 jobs are created.
  • Your computer monitor contains 4 lbs. of lead. Arsenic, lithium, mercury, beryllium, and many other chemicals in e-waste can adversely affect human health and groundwater resources.
