Title: TV REYCLING PROCESS
1TV REYCLING PROCESS
2According to the EPA, recycling just one
computer and one monitor is the equivalent to
preventing 1.35 metric tons of carbon dioxide
emissions from being released. The recycling of
one television prevents four to eight pounds of
lead from being added to the waste stream.
3What is the TV Recycling Process?
The first stage in the TV recycling process is to
remove the cathode ray tube from its enclosure.
After the CRT is removed, the left over parts are
shredded and separated into categories of copper,
steel, printed circuit board, and plastic.
Television recycling process involves the
cathode ray tube made out of glass. It is
necessary to remove the leaded glass from the
clean glass.
Finally, the leaded glass is heated up so that
the lead can be removed. Once extracted, the lead
is sold as a commodity.
4How Can We Avoid the Costly Television Recycling
Process?
- There are a few ways you can responsibly get rid
of your television without getting involved with
the TV recycling process.
5You could sell your television on
eBay
Amazon
6You could choose to return your television to its
manufacturer for free of charge at many drop off
centers. If you can not find a convenient place
to do this, you can consider dropping off your
television at a retail store.
7Finally, if you do not like these options, you
can donate your television to Goodwill, give it
to a neighbor on Freecycle, or donate your TV to
your church, local school, or even a local
theater that could use it as a prop.
