Every year, Covanta Environmental Solutions, through its ECOvanta business line, works with businesses and communities to manage more than 15 million pounds of electronic waste destined for landfills and instead put their resources to good use. Through our services we:
- Recycle or reuse approximately 95 percent of electronic waste materials, including plastics and metals
- Manage and securely destroy sensitive and high-risk materials through mechanical shredding that renders them completely unrecoverable
- Prevent toxic components such as mercury, lead, cadmium, barium and lithium from entering the environment through landfills where they can harm human and animal health
