If you are wondering what to do with recycling scrap computer boards, don’t worry. Here, we’ll explore some ways to make money while recycling scrap computer boards.

The precious metal content makes scrap computer boards a worthwhile commodity. You may have heard of extracting gold from scrap computer boards to make money from some reports. According to reports, the amount of gold is limited, so the extraction of gold from e-waste has become an important renewable resource production industry.

The annual global waste computer to extract the total amount of gold has exceeded the amount of gold mining. A ton of used computer motherboards can extract 300-350 grams of gold, 2 kilograms of silver, 5-10 grams of platinum, 30-50 grams of palladium, 120-130 kilograms of copper, and 25 kilograms of tin. Used computers, waste CPUs, and memory modules contain gold, and a scrap computer can produce 0.2 grams of gold. As a result of this, 10 sets of scrap computer recycling gold can make a gold ring. The amount of gold in it sounds exciting. However, this extracting process can be dangerous and should only be attempted by experienced professionals.
