Smartphone Recycling Image

Smartphones are ubiquitous, and it seems that many people have begun treating phones as disposable items. This is incredible when we think about how much non-renewable materials go into the creation of smartphones and how much energy is required to build them. A chief culprit in our war against a wasteful society, smartphones must be recycled through ethical recycling companies like All Green Electronics Recycling. As leaders in smartphone recycling, we ensure that smartphones are repurposed or recycled, and not simply thrown away wastefully in a landfill.

HOW TO RECYCLE A SMARTPHONE

The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that the U.S. generates nearly 5 million tons of electronic waste annually. It is currently estimated that only about 10-12% of smartphones are being recycled. Worldwide, the number is even lower, hovering at around 8-9%. Americans replace their smartphones with newer models to the tune of 130 million a year, with smartphones having an average life expectancy of just 18 months.

When upgrading to a new smartphone, you have a decision to make about what to do with your old phone. Recycling offers a practical and environmentally-conscious choice, compared to merely leaving it sitting in a drawer or disposing of it in a landfill.

A Wealth of Recoverable Materials

Recycle Old SmartphonesFor every one million cell phones recycled, the Environmental Protection Agency estimates a significant amount of recoverable precious non-renewable resources, including 35,000 pounds of copper, 772 pounds of silver, 75 pounds of gold, and 33 pounds of palladium. Steel, nickel, glass and plastic materials are valuable and may also be reclaimed either whole, or can be melted down to be used in the building of other products. Some estimates show that 500 million smartphones are currently sitting around unused in people’s homes. Others put this number at closer to a billion.

The High Cost of Improper Disposal

Toxic chemicals from smartphones left in landfills include barium, lead, mercury, lithium and rhodium to name a few. These chemicals pollute the air, ground, groundwater, and rivers, lakes and streams through run-off and create a potential for a variety of serious health effects, including cancer, birth defects, and damage to all major organ systems. Furthermore, wildlife populations are endangered through contamination, erosion, and loss of vegetation. Recycling offers a safe option which protects health, preserves the planet, and guards our limited supply of precious resources.
