E-waste recovery.
Value beyond obsolescence.

A device can become obsolete long before the materials inside it lose their value. JENROVA looks at retired electronics as a complex material system with recovery opportunities still to be explored.

A DIFFERENT QUESTION. A NEW POSSIBILITY.

What if yesterday’s electronics could help supply tomorrow’s industry?

The value is embedded in the complexity.

Circuit boards, cables and electronic assemblies combine metals, plastics, glass and other materials in small, tightly joined structures. The challenge is turning that complexity into fractions a downstream user can work with.

Collecting equipment is the beginning. A meaningful material recovery plan also considers product type, hazardous components, batteries, information security, separation quality and a suitable destination for the outputs.

Open the assembly to new recovery pathways.

JENROVA’s dry liberation approach uses no added process chemicals and no hammer mills in the liberation stage. Appropriate preparation and removal of components requiring separate handling come before a feedstock enters that stage.

Prepared electronics are evaluated for liberation into material fractions that can be further separated and characterized. Metals-bearing fractions may require specialist refining; the presence of a valuable element does not establish an economically recoverable product.

Material fractions to evaluate

  • Metals-bearing fractions
  • Prepared polymer fractions
  • Glass and other nonmetal fractions

Illustrative targets. Actual fractions and recovery depend on the feedstock and demonstrated processing route.

Recovery becomes meaningful
when material has a next use.

The next step depends on what testing shows: further metals recovery, a qualified polymer application or another suitable industrial route. Outputs must meet the receiving partner’s requirements. Material processing is separate from data sanitization and does not imply a data-destruction certification.

Who we work with

Electronics manufacturers, equipment asset managers, specialist recyclers and downstream metals recovery partners.

BEFORE WE BEGIN

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Is this the same as IT asset disposition or data destruction?
No. This page describes material recovery. Any data sanitization, destruction or chain-of-custody requirements must be discussed and separately verified.
Are solar panels treated as ordinary e-waste?
Solar modules have distinct layered construction and may require different handling. See our dedicated solar panel recovery page and discuss the module type with the team.
