There are serious problems e-scrap recyclers are looking at, but this is repeating old statistics, and has no clue of what the industry is facing. A decade ago, it was all about what we would do with CRTs. Five years ago, it was that the value of circuit boards was dropping and lcd mercury containing materials. Now, it is what will happen with all these batteries and the percentage of plastics by weight of the pounds handled are going up significantly. CRT glass or mercury capacity is not an issue any more. The stream changes rapidly, and recyclers adapt.
