Recycling mobile phones removes the precious metals while disposing of the hazardous waste in an environmentally friendly way. The waste is toxic to the environment and properly recycling it prevents potentially millions of mobile phone ending up in a land fill each year. When placed in a landfill, these materials can pollute the air and contaminate soil and drinking water. Most cell phones contain precious metals and plastics such as copper, gold, lead, zinc, beryllium, tantalum and coltan that can be recycled to save energy and resources. Any surplus product not returned to a working category is stripped for these materials and the remainder is then recycled in an environmentally friendly way.
