What happens to the circuit boards on my computer?

John Shegerian (CEO, Electronic Waste Recyclers) gives expert video advice on: Where does my e-waste go after it leaves the recycling facility?; What happens to my old TV when I recycle it?; What happens to the circuit boards on my computer? and more...

Circuit boards are recycled just like all other parts of electronic waste. The metals are stripped in a proprietary method. The boards are recycled in a proprietary methodology and all of it is reused. And remember, electronic waste is the highest level recycling paradigm in the recycling world because everything in electronics is reusable, and reuse is the essence of great recycling.
