Environmental company proposes plasma-based vape recycling process
Plasma technology, proposed by David Deegan of Tetronics (a company that provides environmental services for businesses), is offering a promising solution to e-waste from vapes that uses plasma to effectively break down the components of vapes, separating valuable materials for recovery and neutralizing toxic elements. This process generates non-hazardous by-products and even produces energy. Additionally, plasma can play a role in recovering lithium from vape batteries, contributing to a circular economy for critical materials.
