Market Overview:
The global PCB recycling market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the PCB recycling market can be attributed to the increasing demand for recycled gold, silver, and platinum metals from various industrial sectors and consumer sectors. Furthermore, the growth in the finance sector is also expected to fuel the demand for recycled gold, silver, and platinum metals in the coming years. In terms of type, the global PCB recycling market has been segmented into gold-based PCBs, silver-based PCBs, and platinum-based PCBs. Gold-based PCBs are projected to account for a major share of the global market duringthe forecast period owingto their high demandfrom various industrial sectorsand consumer sectors.
Product Definition:
PCB recycling is the process of recovering copper and other metals from Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs). PCBs are valuable sources of metal, and recycling them can save money and help conserve resources.
Gold:
Gold is a precious metal that has been used for thousands of years. It is solid at room temperature but becomes liquid at the temperature of -196°C. Gold bars are available in 1 gram, 2 grams, 5 grams, 10 grams and 50 grams weights. The most common gold alloys are gold-plated steel and copper; these can be recycled as well as reused since they do not get contaminated while recycling process.
Silver:
Silver is a soft, malleable transition metal with a bright silver color. It is found in the earth's crust in different minerals and has been used by humans for thousands of years as an alloying agent in manufacturing jewelry and other products. The pure form of silver can be obtained by mining or extracting it from its ore deposits. Commercially, it is produced by the leaching process, which involves dissolving ores using water or air pressure and electrolytic refining.
Application Insights:
The consumer sector accounted for a major share in the global PCB recycling market. The segment is expected to witness significant growth on account of rising demand for electronic gadgets including smartphones, wearable devices, and tablets among other products. In addition, growing awareness about environmental protection coupled with an increase in disposable income has resulted in increased consumption of PCBs across the globe.
PCB was one of the key materials used during manufacturing of semiconductors and various other components such as LEDs and capacitors owing to its excellent electrical properties which include dielectric strength & insulation resistance along with thermal resistivity & thermal conductivity. These characteristics make it suitable for use as a component material in several end-use industries including LED lighting & LCD displays which are widely utilized across different sectors such as consumer electronics, automotive electronics and medical equipment among others.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global PCB recycling market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to rising awareness regarding environmental protection, growing manufacturing sector, and increasing demand for electronic products. China is a major contributor towards regional growth owing to presence of large number of manufacturers as well as end-users.
The Asia Pacific was followed by North America which accounted for around 20% share in global revenue in 2017. This can be attributed to high rate of technological advancement coupled with high level of consumerism prevalent across this region which has led it become one of the largest producers and consumers globally for printed circuit boards (PCBs). U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the electronics industry for recycled PCBs as a cheaper and more environmentally friendly alternative to virgin materials.
- Regulations and incentives encouraging companies to recycle PCBs, including landfill bans and tax breaks/credits for recyclers.
- The development of new recycling technologies that make the process more efficient and cost-effective.
- Growing public awareness of the benefits of recycling PCBs, which will lead to an increase in demand from consumers and businesses alike.
- Increased investment in research and development for new applications of recycled PCBs, such as in green energy technology
