Description

In the rapidly growing industry of LCD monitor recycling, it is estimated that around three million monitors will be recycled in Germany alone in 2016. However, these monitors often contain backlighting that contains mercury, making them hazardous waste that must adhere to strict regulations.To ensure compliance with the German General Administrative Regulation (AVV) and the German Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (Elektro G), LCD monitors must be registered under category 3. This registration requires special conditions to be met to prevent any risk to the environment or human health due to the mercury content.Until now, the recycling of LCD monitors has been a labor-intensive and potentially dangerous process, as there were no suitable automated procedures available. Workers had to manually dismantle the monitors, exposing themselves to health hazards.To address this issue, ERDWICH now offers two innovative alternatives that are both safe and time-saving for recycling LCD monitors. With these solutions, mercury and valuable resources can be efficiently removed and recycled in an environmentally responsible manner.One of these alternatives is the Monitor Sawing Plant. This state-of-the-art machine is designed to carefully and precisely separate the various components of the LCD monitor, including the mercury-containing backlighting. By using this plant, the recycling process becomes more efficient, reducing the time and effort required for disassembly. Furthermore, the risk to workers' health is significantly minimized.By investing in ERDWICH's Monitor Sawing Plant, recycling facilities can improve their productivity, reduce labor costs, and ensure the safe disposal of LCD monitors. This cutting-edge solution enables the recycling industry to meet stringent environmental regulations and contribute to a more sustainable future.
