Hello all. My Name is Josh. I am the President of a HVAC demolition company in the San Diego area. Well, demo contractor is our operating title, but truth be told most of our business is scrap. I came to this company about a year ago and after a short time realized that there was a lot of money literally being thrown away. I won't bore you with the particulars but I have instituted an e-waste recycling program and have generated a stead flow of e-waste. Always the entrepreneur, I have begun refining what we do and how we handle the materials we receive. I always knew there was PM's used in electronics but never investigated reclaiming and refining it. After spending all week at the ISRI convention and touring local e-waste recyclers in my area, the potential in my e-waste finally hit me. That is where this forum and my membership comes in. After 2 days of reading various info around the web (and being smart enough to know that most of it was either plain crud, or crud laced with someones agenda) I stumbled upon you fine folks. Not being new to forums I quickly realized I had found the info source I needed. You know it when you see it. There could be 100 forums related to a topic, but only one REALLY has the people with the knowledge.
Anyhow, I am mired in reading a searching....and loving every minute of it. Thank you all for so openly sharing your knowledge. I will do my best to find my own answers and post my results for all.
Oh, and I have included a picture of a very small sampling of what we are collecting.
