Abstract

The rational reclamation of the waste printed circuit board (PCB) plays the key portion in the solution of electronic waste. The evaluation of the feasibility and rationality of the reclamation mostly consists of technicality and economical efficiency. Current research inclines to the former factor. And the study on the economical efficiency of the reclamation is insufficient. Thus, this paper presents a new technique of waste PCB recycle, based on which an economical model of the recycle is elaborated. Aiming at the specific conditional of a Hong Kong plant, we perfect the economical model, and make the evaluation of the economical efficiency and feasibility of the waste PCB recycle process conducted by that plant. Finally, we offer quantitative analysis for the rational production of that plant.
