Automaker acts to eliminate E-waste through in-house repair and maintenance

Over the past 5 years, auto manufacturers have begun to mitigate the amount of waste going to landfill by recycling and incinerating up to 87% of the waste produced in their plants. With around 48kg of total waste generated per vehicle produced, and with production of EVs expected to boom in line with increased demand, even 10% of this waste going to landfill is far too high. Recycling raw materials for reuse is an effective way of reducing waste, but what happens to products such as electronic circuit boards, consisting of dozens of components and different metals, that cannot be recycled so simply?
