ProRecycle was founded to efficiently process e-waste and extract precious metals. It uses a proprietary leaching process in a pilot plant to verify viability in Brazil. It now seeks funding to build a full-scale plant in the US. The process is more efficient and generates no emissions, making permitting cheaper. It aims to process 1% of the 50 million devices disposed annually. Financial forecasts show increasing revenues and profits over four years as volume increases. The process and lower costs give it advantages over main competitor The Refining Company. Requested funds will be used for salaries, equipment, materials, supplies and infrastructure to begin operations.

To highlight the research and achievements of Australian researchers, the Global CCS Institute with ANLEC R&D will hold a series of webinars throughout 2016. Each webinar highlights a specific ANLEC R&D research project and the relevant report found on the Institute’s website. The fifth webinar of the series looked at the development of an aqueous ammonia-based post-combustion capture technology for Australian conditions.
CSIRO has been developing aqueous ammonia (NH3)-based post-combustion CO2 capture (PCC) technology for its application under Australian conditions since 2008. Previous pilot-plant trials at Delta Electricity’s Munmorah Power Station demonstrated the technical feasibility of the process and confirmed some of the expected benefits. With further support from the Australian Government and ANLEC R&D, CSIRO has worked closely with universities in Australia and China to develop an advanced aqueous NH3-based CO2 capture technology. The advanced technology incorporates a number of innovative features which significantly improve its economic feasibility. This webinar presented the advancements made from a recently completed project funded by ANLEC R&D, and was presented by Dr Hai Yu and Dr Kangkang Li from CSIRO Energy.

Presently most electrical/electronic equipment (EEE) is not designed for recycling, let alone for circulation. Plastics in these products account for 20% of material use, and through better design, significant environmental and financial savings could be gained.
Technological solutions and circular design opportunities already exist, but they haven’t been implemented yet.
Some challenges, such as ease of disassembly, could be resolved through better communication and by sharing learnings across the value chain.
Instead of WEEE, we should focus on developing CEEE: Circular Electrical and Electronic Equipment.
The case examples of this report show how different stages of the lifecycle can be designed so that plastics circulation becomes possible and makes business sense.
Recycling of Waste Plastics: Starting a Business, How to Start a Plastic Recy...Ajjay Kumar Gupta
The plastics industry has developed considerably since the invention of various routes for the production of polymers from petrochemical sources. Plastics have substantial benefits in terms of their low weight, durability and lower cost relative to many other material types. A major portion of plastic produced each year is used to make disposable items of packaging or other short-lived products that are discarded within a year of manufacture. These two observations alone indicate that our current use of plastics is not sustainable. Recycling is one of the most important actions currently available to reduce these impacts and represents one of the most dynamic areas in the plastics industry today. Recycling provides opportunities to reduce oil usage, carbon dioxide emissions and the quantities of waste requiring disposal.

Reclaiming E-waste Processes and Hazards
Abstract*
This paper will describe the variety of processes that can be used in the extraction of electronic waste (e-waste). There are disadvantages and advantages with each separate process, we will discuss the current processes used and their impact on the environment and workers as well as how the EPA monitors the processes. How economical is processing electronics, what percentage of base metals and precious metals can be reclaimed from e-waste.
The true end of life cycle of high quality electronics can be bought back and resold to consumers as refurbished goods, companies reduces the cost of manufacturing, and profits by resale, this in turn keeps that e-waste out of the landfills. We will look at what companies both 3PL and manufacturing industries are taking advantage, and how companies are getting their products from the consumer and back to the manufacturer in order to recycle and reuse products of e-waste. In addition, what can restrictions does the EPA and State and local authorities put in place to keep electronic waste out of the landfills.
Introduction*
Electronic waste, what is, how does it affect our environment, and how does it affect the industry that produces electronic products bottom line. We will need to first understand cradle to grave as it effects electronic products. Are companies such as Apple taking full advantage of buying back product and refurbishing or extracting all the resources within a product to successfully keep their products out of our landfills. There are many processes from chemical to agricultural strategies using fungi to extract metals from electronics; the later seems to be the most environmentally friendly; however, companies may choose the quickest method rather than the environmentally friendly method. We must also consider environmental health as smaller operation handle e-waste without knowledge of the health hazards that may be present.
Background*
The quantity of waste from electronics has grown since the early 80’s with the innovation of home computers, tape recorders and later iPod’s and other electronics. The use of circuit boards in just about everything the consumer uses has led to a monstrous amount of e-waste proportions. The world produces and estimated 20-50 million tons of e-waste annually (Herat
2013). The United States is the largest producer of e-waste with an estimation of three million tons annually. With new products being produced in force by electronic manufactures the among will only double and triple in amount of waste. There are many problems in the dumping of e-waste in ...

Sustainable Business of the Future
We are the Walmart of Recycling
2. ProRecycle was born from the expertise and persistency of Dr. Willer Pos and
entrepreneurship of Mr. Marcello Pacheco, in order to implement an efficient and clean
manner to process e-waste in order to extract the main metals contained in the e-waste,
specially precious metals, and reintroduce them into the market.
Dr. Pos earned a PhD in Environmental Chemistry from Georgia Tech-Atlanta/USA
Mr. Pacheco earned and engineering degree in Computer Science from Federal University of
RJ- Rio de Janeiro/Brazil.
In 1996, while a professor/researcher at DESA-UFMG in Brazil, e-waste caught Dr. Pos’
attention. Tons of obsolete computers and accessories were stored in huge decommissioned
warehouse areas, waiting to be thrown in the landfills.
In 2013, e-Recicl@, a pilot plant project, was officially registered and launched in order to
consolidate the business with a disassembling line and a hydrometallurgical process, aiming to
verify the viability of the full process (collection, dismantle and segregation) in Brazil.
ProRecycle now wants tocreateafullscalee-wasterecyclingplanttoprocess US’e-wasteand harvestprecious

The Objective
3. For cellular phones, the latest data
points to 150 million lines
connected in use (2012).
Considering each user with at least
two cellular's (one in operation and
the other in some office or home
draw) and an obsolescence rate of
1 ½ year, we are talking about a
market availability of at least 50
Million devices yearly.
THE SIZE OF THE BUSINESS
Our goal is to reach 1% of this Urban
Mining resource.
5. Raw Material is widely available in abundance.
” Compared to conventional mining, only 5% of the resources used in the
exploration, acquisition of areas and mitigation of environmental damage are
enough to pay for the logistics, marketing and acquisition of material for
processing plant and procedures. "
A lot of businesses donate, discard or sell computer boards and electronics
already dismantled, READY FOR PROCESSING.
Estimates calculated in two master's theses (DESA-UFMA) indicate availability
of approximately 25 tons / month of electronics in a metropolitan area with
an average price of $ 3.50 / kg

9. The Problem
Every year the generation of e-waste
increases by more than 10%
Source: ElectronicRecylcers.com
10. Current Solutions
Current recycling technologies produces greenhouse gas and other pollutants
Licensing and permitting for Recycling Plants are limited and costly
Due to Federal, State, County and Municipalities’ environmental regulations and procedures,
It’s very costly to implement a recycling center due to the high degree of pollutants generated
by conventional methods of recycling, such as incinerators and such. The costly investment in
filters, shredders and landfills makes most recycling plants and process prohibitive and only
available to big corporations.
Pollutants generated from current E-Recycling techniques are either
burned or thrown in a landfill
11. ProRecycle Solution
The ProRecycle solution promises a Zero gas Emissions, 100% water and chemical recovery-back
to initial stage. Which would reduce implementation cost, permitting requirements and
complete monetization of end results.
