Surely no one has noticed anything, but the waste park is rapidly evolving as humans reach a production of 56 million tons of e-waste last year. Of these tons of e-waste, most concern computer components that weigh up to 12 million tons. A huge figure that leads our planet to major disasters, which requires finding a radical solution. If you’ve never heard of computer recycling, know that it’s quite feasible these days. To protect the health of living beings, it is better to recycle computer equipment, as this can be of great help.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjMwMyJ9fQ==@” button_text=”Pick-up form” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.16″ _dynamic_attributes=”button_url” _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” use_background_color_gradient=”on” background_color_gradient_stops=”rgba(255,255,255,0.9) 0%|rgba(255,255,255,0.9) 100%” background_color_gradient_overlays_image=”on” background_color_gradient_start=”rgba(255,255,255,0.9)” background_color_gradient_end=”rgba(255,255,255,0.9)” background_image=”https:\/\/infoliquidationrecycle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ordinateurs-portables-recuperation-recycle-materiel-electronique-certificat-destruction-laval-montreal.jpg” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”95%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”30px|30px|30px|30px|true|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|300|||||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Recycling computer equipment makes it possible to recycle a computer, whether it is a desktop computer or a laptop. Moreover, everything related to computer equipment is concerned by this process. After an observation, many people do not yet know that these materials are recyclable hence the abandonment when new materials are available on the market.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Most of the time, these people leave their materials in the garbage cans while they can be recycled. But first, you should know that computer components pose a danger to our health and the environment. This is why it is necessary to know how to differentiate the materials, because they are not classified in the same category as a can of Coca-Cola for example. However, what is the purpose of recycling computer equipment?<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Indeed, recycling is a step that makes it possible to give back a way to others to use this computer equipment. In addition, this step requires gathering the components that are still working to create others.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/infoliquidationrecycle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/recyclage-ecolo-01.jpg” alt=”computer recycling” title_text=”phones-black-and-white-recycle” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Before recycling computer equipment, let us first highlight the various recyclable components.<\/span><\/p>\n It should be noted that there are many components in computer hardware, including a computer. There’s the computer screen, sound card, processors, motherboards, PCI cards, and even memory sticks. Moreover, we give you later, the list of components of a computer hardware:<\/span><\/p>\n It is important just like processors because of its peculiarity in the connection of microprocessors and the memories of a computer. This component contains lead, a dangerous element that strongly requires recycling, because in this way gold can be obtained. Moreover, it is a stainless metal that is found in many computer components. <\/span><\/p>\n Memory sticks: Also known as RAM, these components are important to a computer. They can be repackaged or used to increase the performance of a computer. But regardless, when these components end up in garbage cans, they can contribute to the degradation of our planet.<\/span><\/p>\n This is an important element in computing, as it allows all expansion cards to be connected from the motherboard. When the PCI card is recycled, the components can be adapted to a laptop or other computing device. In addition, aluminum and sometimes gold can be obtained from this component.<\/span><\/p>\n Most components such as printers, computer mice, keyboard, video card and SSD are recyclable. In addition, whether we look for metals such as gold, aluminum or copper everywhere. Moreover, plastics that are found in housings or device protectors are also recyclable. <\/span><\/p>\n Some know this component as Intel or AMD. Whether it’s one or the other, processors are considered the brains of computers. During recycling, gold can be obtained from brooches, reception beaches, and even link wires. On the one hand, we can also recover precious metals such as palladium, silver, copper or aluminum.<\/span><\/p>\n It is a magnetic mass memory that is found in every computer. These are useful components, regardless of its condition, because you can reuse the parts that are integrated into the repair of another hard drive for example. It is also possible to recycle the tray because it is made of aluminum, sometimes glass or ceramic. On the tray, there are ferromagnetic layers from which all the information is located. Using modern recycling, cobalt, nickel alloys or iron oxide can be removed to make another component.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#65c05b” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”95%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”30px|30px|30px|30px|true|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|300|||||||” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Whether you are in Pierrefond or the surrounding area, all the recycling steps are similar. On the other hand, a registration is mandatory and this is done with a structure that is responsible for the collection of computer equipment. But before sending your equipment, it is necessary to carry out a sorting to know which are the worn materials and the materials that are still in good condition. Then the treatment can begin so that the waste is dismantled to find the materials sought in each component.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjMwMyJ9fQ==@” button_text=”Pick-up form” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.16″ _dynamic_attributes=”button_url” _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/infoliquidationrecycle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/icon_info_liquidation.png” title_text=”icon_info_liquidation” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” width=”60px” custom_margin=”||30px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Surely no one has noticed anything, but the waste park is rapidly evolving as humans reach a production of 56 million tons of e-waste last year.
