Recycling copper is a highly ecoe˛cient way of reintroducing a valuable material back into the economy. The recycling of copper requires less energy than primary production and reduces CO 2 emissions. In addition to its environmental benefits, the recycling of complex copper scrap, such as electronic waste, drives the recovery of many

A proposed alternative to the linear economy is the circular economy, which aims for a total restructuring of design, consumption, and waste. The three main principles of the circular economy are designing out waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use for as long as possible, and regenerating natural systems. 3 Essentially, in a circular economy, products are designed both to ...
