EDM Workshop 17: E-Waste recycling optimization and Design-for-Recycling: ENIAC project GreenElec
June 7, 2013 | 2:00 pm – 2:30 pm CEST
Recycling treats complex waste streams containing precious and other metals and materials. A smelter can recover some 20 precious and other non-ferrous metals from shredded end-of-life electronics.
Electronic waste and especially electronic parts however have low recycling yields. Electronics pose a recycling challenge both from the point of purity (contaminants) as well as volume. The EU funded ENIAC project GreenElec aims at fundamentally improving the recycling situation by performing research into the basic elements that determine recycling efficiency.
This workshop will introduce the GreenElec project and give a glimpse of the possibilities to identify andquantify material content and improve the recycling process of electronics by Design-for-Recycling and selective disassembly based on optical recognition or product data made available end-of-life.
