Description
Waste circuit boards come from the dismantling products produced during the pre-order disassembly process, including the printed circuit board substrate and its components. The process represented in this dataset is the circuit board obtained from the disassembly of waste household appliances, first removing the components, and then further using the physical crushing and sorting method to separate the metal and non-metallic materials in the substrate in a closed facility, and setting up a dust and harmful gas collection and treatment system.
Activity Description
This dataset represents the process of obtaining valuable recycled products through the disassembly of waste circuit boards, including energy consumption and the generation of waste components.
Process Description
