Recycling Ransom

February 23rd, 2011

Start recycling or you will never see the earth again.

The Electronic World

January 21st, 2011

 <<

Welcome to the 21st Century! Who knew that in less than 25 years a large portion of industrialized civilization would be semi-cyborg, decked out with anywhere from 6 – 30 pieces of integrated technology. And now, as each little plastic infused copper conundrum dies, breaks, or loses power where do we go? We recover our commodities of course. The ultimate goal of the electronics recycling industry is to have a method of reintegrating and reconstituting all the energies and products used to create our gadgetry. True energy cannot be created or destroyed, but how do you extract the copper out of my iPad? As with the skinning of cats, there are many answers. In the Americas we look to physical separation followed by heat and chemical processes. In China they rely on the brute force approach employing millions of hands with millions of tools. And everywhere else they simply burn it in open air, picking out the shiny bits from the ashes.

The moral of the story is that this is happening. We are in the first decade of what will be one of planets foremost industries in the following years. Simple math dictates that we need to find more efficient ways of recovering resources. E-Waste recycling yields 100 times more metals per ton using 1000 times less energy. Voila, now we just have to get good at it. At GreenGo Recycling Depot we are passionate about the evolution of this process, and strive to be at the forefront of the industry in all aspects. If you’re looking for a recycling partner, buyer, consultant, or marketer give us the opportunity to share our passion and grow your business!

PS: If someone from Africa or rural China is reading this, please stop burning e-waste in your backyard. If you look at jet streams and air flow on our little planet you can estimate that I’ll be breathing your flame retardants within the next couple months. I don’t appreciate this.
