E-waste contains a variety of valuable materials, such as metals, glass, plastics and other materials. Although recycling processes are usually planned for the metal fractions because of the economical value of this fraction, non-metallic fractions are gaining more attention, since the disposal of such material in landfills, or the burning of plastics can be associated to high environmental contamination. This chapter will discuss the general recycling of material from e-wastes.
