How e-Waste Is Recycled | GreenShortz

Here’s how e-waste gets recycled. Whole computers, televisions and printers in one end and shredded and sorted bits of metal, plastic and circuit board out the other and it is pretty cool to watch. Because of the toxic materials in e-waste it is important to make sure it gets recycled properly. PlasMet e-Solutions is an Atlanta, Georgia e-waste recycler. They help local communities add e-waste to their recycling programs. For more information visit www.plasmet.com

    One of the best ways to reduce the amount of electronic wastage is by not replacing our electronics too frequently.

    Why throw something away if it’s not broken?

    Whenever people replace their televisions or whatever, the old one can be sold or given away for free as long as it still works.

    In the event it is faulty or damaged, it’s possible it could be repaired or sold for spare parts.

  24. CheapAssHack on June 10, 2020 at 5:11 pm

    Too bad this place is closed now. 🙁

  25. Gabi Aus on June 10, 2020 at 5:12 pm

    How is recycling for them a business, but apparently super cost inefficient for most places where electronics just get shipped away?

  26. ViniZan San on June 10, 2020 at 5:13 pm

    All phones should have easy ways to change parts or upgrade, most important the battery. I’m 10 years with my computer working fine because i could replace broken parts and upgrade the OS. Hope I could stay with my smartphone the same time.

  27. Panthera on June 10, 2020 at 5:14 pm

    THIS IS SOOOO INEFFICIENT! They take up so much space where half of it is literally empty. Shredding is so sad… They should have tried to make agreements with other similar companies in order to make the whole industrial estate built just for recycling companies working together where they could be separating parts, sorting them out, and sharing between each other. Or something like that… Just an idea of mine….

    These guys want to make massive profits and damage so many things in there while many people are unemployed, not having what to do…. Maybe it would help to develop some kind of governmental / national employment scheme to provide temporary rotating helpers / workers who would disassemble equipments and things of all kinds….

    Also, plastics have to be separated by colour, metals have to be separated by type, PCB plastics have to be sent somewhere totally else for a specific company dealing with just that because they are so so toxic! Thank you for reading, spread the word and generate your own ideas which would help to make recycling better or much better. It is up to you. Start caring what is going on within recycling industries….

    I. WANT. ALL. THE. COMPUTERS.

  29. Diego Garcia on June 10, 2020 at 5:18 pm

    If you took out the parts that are still working you could easily sell them cheap and still make profit make a web sit with cheap components rather than shredding them you could get the material from a dvi cable and only make $0.04 or you could sell it for a dollar plus shipping and make a full profit of $1.00 and do that with all your electronics and you could make a lot more money

  30. Roy N Barlow on June 10, 2020 at 5:19 pm

    It appears this place is permanently closed.

  35. Shmee on June 10, 2020 at 5:27 pm

    We need less durable stuff , so we can change stuff after warranty… 😎

  36. murfee 123 on June 10, 2020 at 5:27 pm

    Please don’t recyle smartphones, you can resell them and make money or give them to kids or people who need them, instead of getting them shredded

    So why do you think he left out gold and silver? So you dont do it yourself and make your own money and so you will act like they are doing you a favor but in reality you are doing them the favor.

  41. My Other Car Is A DeLorean on June 10, 2020 at 5:34 pm

    Do you know any e-waste recycling facility in Toronto?

  48. jonny777bike on June 10, 2020 at 5:40 pm

    Custom built pc I think are the way to go. A full atx case with a full power supply shouldn’t need to be upgraded for a long time. Swapping out an ATX motherboard, processor and RAM should be the things that are done. Build motherboards with standard processor sockets, RAM sockets, and other sockets that could last a lot longer. Just upgrade the processor, Ram and the Video Cards. Minimize the number of times the whole computer has to be replaced.

  49. Tracey Wingfield on June 10, 2020 at 5:41 pm

    Why isn’t this a solution for third world countries where e-waste is dumped. This is ridiculous. There is a solution that no one is using.

  50. Mishika Sharma on June 10, 2020 at 5:43 pm

    That was really helpful
