Abstract
Information concerning the chemical substances that make up electronic devices is hardly available, so current processing of obsolete electronics is not effective. Providing chemical information by modern analytical chemistry means that electronics scrap is characterized. Based on this knowledge a laboratory scale combination process has been established, which takes care of both, metals and plastics, forming the parts of electronic devices. Considering these chemical aspects, a more ecological design of future electronics is possible
