The paper describes the resource potential for waste electric and electronic equipments which is not a target to be recycled in Japanese regulation, through some experimental trials of comminution and separation. The test samples were electric cleaner, fan, rice cooker, radio cassette recorder, telephone, radio, audio player, printer, fax machine, and video tape recorder, which were collected from citizens in Akita prefecture, and also collected from municipal waste disposal facilities in some municipalities in Akita prefecture. After sorting the samples into eight groups, comminution and separation (magnetic separation, eddy current separation and hand picking) was conducted for each group weighing approximately 1 ton. At the result, the mass balance of construction materials such as ferrous materials, nonferrous materials, motors, cables and PCBs was clarified. The resource potential for the samples was analyzed and found that the recoverable quantities of Fe, Al and Cu from e-scraps (aimed on the paper) hoarded in the house for ten years corresponded to 135 %, 380 %, 9 % recovered from house hold appliances which is presently collected and recycled in the regulation. Prices of ferrous materials, aluminum parts and copper parts (mainly copper wire) were plotted as a function of separative work units, and suggested that it is effective for Cu recovery to separate copper wire from motors and/or residual materials of magnetic and eddy current separations.
