The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has certified Computer Recycling Center for hazardous waste resource recovery. Computer Recycling Center is the first certified electronics demanufacturer in Missouri.
Computer Recycling Center, Springfield, demanufactures more than 3.25 tons of electronic scrap a month; including monitors, televisions, computers, mice, keyboards, printers, scanners, speakers, cell phones and various other e-scrap items. The company currently recycles about 97 percent of its electronic scrap.
While demanufacturing does not require a Resource Recovery Certification, handling CRTs does mandate a certificate.
CRC voluntarily requested the certification early. The center has plans to use a crusher to break the CRTs before sending them for recycling. By getting the certification now, Computer Recycling Center can request that the department modify its certification to include the crusher once it is installed, but before it is used.
