E-waste Recycling technology

Technology / Service Summary

Advanced recycling technology to achieve resource circulation

Purpose

Mitsubishi Materials will become a leading player in the resource circulation of non-ferrous metals and strongly promote the circular economy. Leveraging our strengths of advanced technology and a wide range of assets for resource circulation, as well as the long value chain of copper products, we will further strengthen and expand our recycling system, which will build a closed loop for resource circulation with all e-waste generators and return (circulate) recycled resources in a form that ensures traceability.

Feature

• Automatic dismantling and sorting processes for items such as home appliances, enabling recycling of a wide range of resources
• Efficient processing of E-Scrap through the Mitsubishi Process for continuous copper smelting
• Material Grid framework enabling collection of a wide range of nonferrous metals including platinum group metals, lead and tin
•Ensuring resource traceability (LCA, CFP, recycled material usage rate of regenerated products, etc.)
