Waste electrical and electronic equipment. Facts and figures.
Electronic devices and equipment - from washingmachines to vacuum cleaners, from smartphones to computers - are a symbol of modern life. To this day, it’s hard to imagine how we would live without them. However, waste has become a problem
Chemical composition of printed circuit boards
The elementary composition of printed circuit boards depends on its type and application. In general, metals in printed circuit boards can reach 40%, ceramics 30%, and plastics 30%. Electrical or electronic components make up only 3% of the weight of
Printed circuit board features
Printed circuit boards are the base on which microelectronic components such as semiconductor chips and capacitors are mounted. They are used to connect electronic components through conductive tracks. Printed circuit boards typically consist of epoxy resins, fiberglass, copper, nickel, iron, aluminum,
What amounts of precious metals are found in electronic devices?
When the term “golden paradise” is used, it is difficult to imagine images of old computers, used cell phones, and broken keyboards. But old appliances contain a surprising amount of useful and valuable metals that should not be thrown away.
