In Minnesota, it is unlawful to dispose CRT computer monitors and TV’s in trash. It is also unlawful to dispose flat-panel video display devices including computer monitors, TV’s and laptops in trash. These electronics equipments must be recycled.
Every year, 30-40 millions of computers become obsolete in the United States. Each computer contains a significant amount of valuable materials, such as metals, plastics and glass. For example, the amount of gold extracted from one ton of computer scrap equals that from 17 tons of gold ore. Through computer recycling, these materials can be recovered and reused for manufacturing new computers.
- Over 3500 U.S. homes could be powered for a year by the savings of recycling just a million laptop computers annually.
- Over 320 tons of gold and 7,500 tons of silver are used each year in the manufacturing of computers, smart phones and other high-tech devices.
- Less than 50% of the precious metals contained in electronic waste is recovered through recycling. The rest is lost in landfills.
- We could save over 3 million barrels of oil each year by recycling just half of the plastics used in electronic devices and computers, while preventing 2 million tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere.
- 80% of the pollution from and 60% of the energy used in mining rare metals and rare earth elements can be eliminated through recycling of e-waste.
Minneapolis St Paul Computer & Electronics Recycling Centers
If the old computers are not disposed properly, they can pose a serious threat to our environment. Computers contain many toxic and carcinogenic substances, such as lead, mercury, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), cadmium, and chromium. On average, one CRT computer monitor contains about 4 pounds of lead. If these computers end up in landfills, they can cause dangerous pollution to water and air.
Computer components contain a large amount of valuable substances that can be recycled and reused. Lead, copper, and gold can extracted from old computer motherboards, monitors, memory chips, keyboards, mice and hard disks. An old-styled 15-inch CRT monitor may contain up to 1.5 pounds of lead and a 21-inch monitor may contain up to 7-8 pounds of lead. If such a large quantity of metals are disposed carelessly, it can pose serious harm to our environment.
