What is the most valuable recyclable component of a circuit board?

Circuit board is widely used in electronic products, so the amount of waste circuit boards are a lot in life too. As a waste material with high value recovery, the metals contained in it are the most valuable recyclable component of a circuit board.

In people’s daily life, the circuit board can be seen everywhere, such as used mobile phones, scrapped computers, televisions, refrigerators, etc. The circuit board is mainly composed of metals and non-metals resin fiber. And it contains nearly 20 kinds of non-ferrous metals and precious metals, the metal content is as high as 40%, and furthermore the metal grade in the printed circuit boards is equivalent to tens to hundreds of metal grade in ordinary minerals.

Usually the most in the metal content is copper, also there is gold, aluminum, nickel, lead, silicon metal and so on contained in it. These metals can be reused to generate greater value, it’s the most valuable recyclable component of the circuit board. And it makes the circuit board high recovery value and economic value. So there are more and more people into this business to recycle the metals from the waste circuit boards.

Next coming to how to recycle the most valuable recyclable component of a circuit board?

                        The PCB circuit board recycling machine could effectively help it. With the process of crushing, air separation and electrostatic separation, the metals recycling rate could be reaching to above 99%. Furthermore the whole process is based on an environmental friendly condition. Because of the high metal recycling rate, the metals and non-metals could be separated effectively. The non-metals are mainly resin fiber, which is mainly used in wood-plastic industry. Then about the metals, you could sell it directly for profit. So the metals which is the most valuable recyclable component of the circuit board could be sufficiently recycled out to meet people’s requirement.

So if you want to recycle the metals out of the waste circuit board, if you want to make the waste recycled completely, contact us about the PCB circuit board recycling machine at any time!
