Computer Recycling

Did you know that computers and other consumer electronics make up about 2% of all of the materials in today's landfills? While more and more companies are beginning to understand the value of recycling, it has to be stressed that recycling computers and monitors is especially important.

The primary reason why computer recycling is so essential is that they contain lead and other toxic metals, which can cause serious damage to the environment, especially if they found their way into the water supply.

In addition to this, there could be personal information in your computer that you may not be able to get rid of permanently. Leaving information like this on the computer can lead to problems like identity theft. That’s why computer recycling has become more important these days.

Several parts of the computer can be recycled such as glass monitors, keyboards, CD Rom drives, plastic cases, cathode ray tubes (CRT), cables, the copper in the power cord, metal from circuit boards, printer cartridges and batteries.

The first step in computer recycling is erasing all information, including financial and personal , that is stored in the hard drive. This ensures that your finances and personal information are protected. Then, there is a thorough examination to check which components can be reused. They are harvested to build new machines. Non-usable parts will be broken down and sent to a smelting facility. There they are melted and re-modeled into other things.
