Electronics Recycling

Electronics Recycled - Mobile, AL - ASM RecyclingIn recent years, the number of household electronics ending up in landfills has ballooned at a dangerous rate. Unfortunately, many electronics contain harmful chemicals and heavy metals that can leach into surrounding ground water supplies when left in landfills. As a result, the recycling industry has been working overtime to develop new techniques for recycling all manner of household electronics today. ASM Recycling, Inc. aims to be a part of the solution by adding full-scale electronics recycling capabilities to our facility.

In 2011 alone, more than 4.4 million tons of electronics were successfully recycled. Once they are collected, they are tested for functionality to determine if they can be refurbished or reused. If so, they are removed from the scrap stream. Many of these products remain in active use in the US. However, working electronics make up only a small percentage of the total being recycled today. Those not in working order, or easily refurbished, are sent downstream to be demolished.

During this process, the electronic devices are separated into a variety of basic materials, including:

  • Steel
  • Precious
  • Copper
  • Lead
  • Plastic
  • Glass
  • And more

These raw materials are then sold to manufacturers who use them to create new goods, oftentimes going back into new electronics or other manufacturing areas.
