Park benches of the future could be made from computers of the past.
Scientists in china have developed a new recycling method that makes a strong construction material out of printed circuit boards (PCB’S). which had been thought to be worthless.
PCB’s account about 3% by weight of all electronic waste.Although metals from the circuit boards, such as copper, aluminum are recycled, landfill disposal has been the primary method for treating the non-metallic material which is difficult to recycle.
The new process pulverizes the non-metallic parts of the circuit boards, adds a resin, then hot presses them into usable plates.Being as strong as concrete, which makes good substiute for wood.It can be used to make sewer grates, fences and park benches.
