Romanian company GreenWEEE starts first LCD, LED screen recycling unit in CEE

Published on

May 25, 2020

GreenWEEE, a Romanian company operating on the waste electrical and electronic equipment treatment and recycling market, has inaugurated the first line for recycling TVs and equipment containing flat screens – LCD, plasma and LED, in Central and Eastern Europe, following a 500,000 Euro investment.

The new reciclyng line allows the treatment of over 2,500 tonnes of televisions and equipment containing flat screens per year.

Because flat screens and LCDs contain CCFL fluorescent tubes, the treatment process focuses on the extraction of hazardous substances and materials, especially mercury, which is removed in a controlled environment.

Metals and plastics are treated using existing equipment within GreenWEEE and then reintroduced into the economic circuit as secondary raw materials.
