- A cell phone is
made up of many materials. In general, the handset consists of 40
percentmetals, 40 percent plastics, and 20 percent- ceramics and
trace materials.
- Mobile phones are
relatively inexpensive, and smaller every day. However, it is
plastic it takes thousands of years to degrade, and toxic metals
such as arsenic, antimony, Beryllium, cadmium,
copper, lead, nickel and zinc, that accumulate in living organisms
and can cause cancer and neurological diseases.
- The U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that 130 million
cell phones are discarded each year. When dismantled, their internal
metal components translate into 65,000 tons of waste containing
lead, cadmium, arsenic, beryllium, mercury and other toxic heavy
metals and carcinogens.
- Unlike with many
other types of e-waste, cell phone recycling is profitable because
many phones are refurbished and resold, while others are mined for
scrap metals.
- There is intense
commercial interest in recycling of cell phones due to the fact that
their average lifetime is relatively short while the materials used
in their production are commercially viable.
- Cell phones are
currently one of the few electronic products, if not the only one,
that also have a thriving reuse market. In fact, more handsets are
reused than recycled.
- Over 90 per cent
of the materials in a mobile phone can be recycled.
Recycling 250,000 old mobiles plus their batteries and chargers will
recover enough materials to make 48,000 aluminium cans and more than
2,400 plastic fence posts.
- Recovery of these
materials will also preclude the need to mine more than 728 tonnes
of gold ore, 808 tonnes of silver ore and 178 tonnes of copper
sulphide.
- 95% of the
handsets collected in the UK will be recycled and then sold to
developing countries such as China, India, Pakistan.
- 280 tonnes of
mobile phones, batteries and accessories have been collected for
recycling by the industry, saving the environment from potential
damage. This equates to 1.1 million batteries and 435,000 handsets
having been collected.
