MBA Polymers is the leader in the world at recycling plastics from end-of-life durable goods such as electronics, large and small appliances, IT/office equipment and automobiles. MBA, which literally started in a garage in CA, invested over $50 million from 1993 to 2005 inventing, developing and demonstrating its state-of-the-art automated technology to recover plastics from extremely complex mixed...
The metals contained in various mobile phones were analyzed. More than 20 elements were detected and their net amounts were found to increase year by year. The environmental and economic impacts were assessed based on an elemental analysis. The CO2 emissions generated by the incineration of plastics were estimated to be almost the same as those avoided by recovering the metals. Gold had the biggest...

This article discusses how end-of-life management (EoL) networks evolve and adapt by looking at different characteristics of the network components. We provide a literature review and present a theoretical analysis of EoL networks. Then, using the example of cell phone EoL management, we illustrate potential EoL network dynamics.
