The main economic reason for the present recycling of electronic scrap is a recovery of precious metals (gold, silver, platinum). The environmental concern results from fact that the scrap contains also hazardous components (cadmium, lead, mercury, etc.), what causes problems at disposal sites. Processing of electronic scrap should be solved with complex wasteless technology, to derive also base metals (copper, iron, tin, zinc, lead, mercury), whereas plastic, ceramic and glass components, which can´t be recycled, should be disposed without environmental impacts. A significant element of environment – oriented product policy is eco-labeling, which starts to be used also in electrical and electronic industry.
