Electronic Waste Disassembly with Industrial Waste Heat [PDF]

Environmental Science & Technology, 2013
Waste printed circuit boards (WPCBs) are resource-rich but hazardous, demanding innovative strategies for post-consumer collection, recycling, and mining for economically precious constituents. A novel technology for disassembling electronic components from WPCBs is proposed, using hot air to melt solders and to separate the components and base boards.
