Computer and electronics are the results of todays technology boom. With the rapid introduction of better electronics and computers such as High-Definition television or Centrino-Mobile laptop, the hottest gadget from few years ago are becoming out of date and useless. Instead of disposing these computers and electronics, almost all parts of a computer or electronic device can be recycled. To learn about the actual computer and electronic recycling process, please visit our section Current Recycling Processes Computer & Electronics.
This section provides a list of todays recyclable computer and electronics materials. The following information was extracted directly from Recyclers World. USED COMPUTERS a.) Used Desktop Computers Used Home Computer Systems includes all used/reusable personal computer systems. b.) Used Laptop Systems Used Laptop Systems includes all used/reusable personal computer in laptop or with integrated LCD configurations. c.) Used PDA/Handheld Systems Used PDA/Handheld Systems includes all used/reusable handheld computers. This grade shall not include laptop computers. d.) Used Commercial Computer Systems Used Commercial Computer Systems include all used/reusable mainframe and commercial computing equipment. e.) Used Networking Hardware Include all hardware used for inter-pc networking. f.) Used Computer Parts Used Computer Parts may consist of any used/reusable computer parts or components. g.) Used Printers Used Printers include all used/reusable computer printers h.) Used Printer Parts Used Printer Parts may include any used/reusable printer parts. i.) Used Monitors Used Monitors may include any used/reusable computer monitor (this excludes scrap/damaged or broken monitors). j.) Used Keyboards Used Keyboards may include any used/reusable keyboards. k.) Used Disk Drives Used Disk Drives be in undamaged reusable condition. l.)

The make and model should be clearly stated. c.) Other Used Printer Cartridges Other Used Printer Cartridges may include any assorted used/reusable printer cartridges, canisters or ribbons. COMPUTER SCRAP AND DISMANTLING a.) Scrap Whole Computers Whole or un-dismantled PC or mainframe Computer systems. b.) Scrap CPU Units Scrap CPU Units consist of whole, un-dismantled CPU's (Central Processing Units), free of monitors or keyboards. c.) Populated Circuit Boards Whole circuit boards with all components still attached (the term populated refers to the components "living on the boards" i.e. IC's Capacitors, etc.). d.) Circuit Boards (sheared flush) Circuit Boards (sheared flush) consist of un-populated circuit boards or circuit boards that have had all the components removed either by manual dismantling (de-soldering) or by means of shearing the components off so that the surface of the circuit board is "sheared flush". e.) Soldered Circuit Board Trimmings Soldered Circuit Board Trimmings consist of trimmings or rejects from new etched (solder coated) copper clad circuit boards. |
