Crt-Recycling-Image

The goal to recycle old CRTs (cathode ray tubes) in televisions and monitors is a worthy one, as CRTs contain some of the materials most damaging to our environment out of all of our electronic equipment. Government guidelines have pushed to make it illegal to dispose of this equipment in the incorrect manner. Previously hard to recycle due to their weight and size, and the fact that many recycling centers charge a premium to take them, CRTs can now be recycled easily and quickly through the CRT recycling services of All Green Electronics Recycling.

HOW TO RECYCLE A CRT

A cathode ray tube (CRT) is a bulky component of a TV or computer monitor. The process for recycling cathode ray tubes (CRT) used to be simple and straightforward. Everything changed when the market demand shifted to flat panels. Now many recyclers choose to store CRT glass instead of recycling it because of rising costs, limited return on interest and lack of economic incentives. Even worse, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers some color CRT computer monitors hazardous under federal law. This means that they are subject to special restrictions and handling requirements. Finally, consumers often find recycling CRTs inconvenient because they are bulky and heavy. Rest assured that we meet the federal guidelines for recycling CRTs. We are more than willing to recycle CRTs to help customers and protect the environment.

The Benefits of CRTs

Crt-Recycling ImageThe demand for CRT glass has dwindled because of the shift from bulky CRTs monitors and TVs to light weight, flat panels. This has resulted with many other recyclers stockpiling their CRT glass. It is critical that we avoid stockpiling CRT glass and instead, efficiently recycle them. A normal CRT device can contain up to 90 pounds of glass. According to the EPA, about half of all electronics ready for end-of-life management are CRT monitors and TVs. This unfortunately results in enormous amounts of waste being dumped in landfills. Other recyclers export their stockpiled CRTs to third world countries to be dumped in landfills. However, locally recycling CRTs allows us to conserve resources while recovering and reusing materials.

What Type of Materials can be Recycled from CRTs?

A lot of the plastic, glass and metal used in CRTs can be recovered and recycled. Recycled CRT glass is used for niche products like ceramic tile and X-ray shielding glass blocks. CRTs also contain precious and semiprecious metals on the circuit board such as gold, silver, tin, lead, and copper. As an added bonus, customers may be paid for certain valuable materials and parts salvaged from the CRT.

Which CRT Materials harm the Environment?

CRT glass contains enough lead to be considered a hazardous waste by the federal government. Specifically, the CRT’s panel, funnel, neck and solder glass all contain lead. The circuit boards contain trace toxic metals such as lead and trace hazardous materials like mercury. Lead has a very negative effect on the environment and people’s health. Lead toxicity can cause irreversible neurological damage and renal disease. When CRTs are dumped in landfills or improperly recycled, they slowly deteriorate and release toxins that contaminate the soil, water and air. Responsibly recycling CRTs protects both people and the environment.
