Okay so I've spent a couple of years scrapping waste and it contains All Ics, BGA, gold fingers, flatpacks ect. After an argument with my unsupportive girlfriend I out it all in a pile and threw gasoline in it and now it's a partially scorched cluster fk. Is there a way for my to process this stuff all together and what way would I do it? Is it even worth it? Please I need to know something soon.
 
As you probably know, the burning of ewaste is not good for the environment. This will make recovery a bit more complicated. Now that it has been burned a respirator is now necessary, the dust is not healthy for you.

I think the only responsible thing to do is pick through it and recover what you can. Then collect the rest a dispose of it properly. Letting it set where it is will leech those toxins into the ground water.....so if you/neighbors have well water it could get into the well system.

I to have spent years collecting ewaste for future recovery, so I know it'll be a tuff decision no matter what direction you go.
