The core of electronic waste recycling is the careful manual dismantling of old appliances and electrical equipment. The central task is the removal of harmful substances and the recovery of individual material components. This is where the circle closes.
The old appliances are dismantled into more than 30 material fractions. Individual fractions such as metals, cardboard and some plastics are already separated in pure form and returned to the economic cycle. Metallic composites such as transformers, circuit boards and coils that cannot be separated manually are sent to other specialised service providers for mechanical processing in order to separate the available recyclable materials (metals, precious metals) for further processing.
