Electronics Recycling
For effective disassembly, separation and recycling of electronic waste, recyclers need to use a range of analytical methods. PerkinElmer have a comprehensive range of Spectroscopy, Chromatography and Thermal Analysis instruments and supporting services to ensure our recycling customers turn e-waste into valuable raw materials including metals as feedstock for manufacturing clients.
We have AA, ICP-OES and ICP-MS for metals purity analysis. UV-Vis and FT-IR microscopy - perfect for optical measurements and polymer identification. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) for understanding degradation processes. Gas Chromatography and hyphenation for powerful insights into off-gassing, evolved gases and more.
