How much money can you make by recycling waste circuit boards? (2024)

The waste circuit board recycling equipment (also called pcb recycling machine) is mainly used for the separation of metal and non-metal in materials such as waste circuit boards, copper clad boards, circuit boards and trims. For PCB processing, there are two recycling ways:

1. Dismantle the electronic components first, then recycle the components and clean motherboards separately; For some valuable components such as CPUs, RAMs, Memory Chips, you can further extract gold/silver and other precious metals. And, for the clean motherboards, after crushing and separating, you can get pure copper and resin powder.

2. Crush the circuit boards directly without removing the electronic components. After dry crushing, the waste circuit boards will be pulverized into a mixture of metal and resin fiber. Finally, the metal and resin will be separated by a high-voltage electrostatic separator. Then, the separated metal and non-metal can be sold directly for reuse.

The circuit board usually contains 30% plastic, 30% inert oxide and 40% metal. The main direction of recycling the waste circuit board is metal recovery. The metal contains about 20% copper, 8% iron, 2% nickel, 4% tin, 2% zinc, and precious metals such as about 0.1% gold, 0.2% silver, 0.005% palladium. The recycling price of the waste circuit boards varies according to the structure, generally ranging from 2000-18000 yuan ($28-$2600). Our circuit board recycling equipment can recycle metal and scrap metal inside, which can be sold to make money. Among them, the price of copper is around 38,000 yuan ($5400) per ton, the price of iron is around 1000 yuan ($145) per ton, and scrap metal fiberglass and resin powder can also be sold for additives and filling materials, and the profits are considerable. Comprehensive calculation, for recycling one ton of waste circuit boards, the profit is at least 1,000 yuan ($145).

Suny Group's PCB Recycling Machine is dust-free and green. For the price and profit of recycling and processing waste circuit boards, it is not fixed. After all, there are many types of waste circuit boards, and the metal content contained therein is also different. At the same time, the degree of attention of waste circuit boards in different regions is different, and the price is different. Therefore, the size of its profits cannot be generalized.

Our PCB Recycling Machine has the following advantages:

1. Compact structure, reasonable layout, stable performance and low noise.

2. PLC-controlled automated production line, balance feeding.

3. Using three-stage pulverization, and the largest processing capacity reaches 1000kg per hour.

4. The crushing chamber adopts circulating water to control temperature and reduce noise.

5. The whole production line adopts negative pressure feeding to effectively reduce dust overflow.

PCB recycling machine has already become a leader in the e-waste processing industry, and has a considerable investment prospects. The metal recycled from waste circuit boards can be used as a raw material for the metallurgical industry, and the glass fiber can be used as a raw material or a filler for the glass fiber processing, thereby achieving the purpose of recycling all resources.
