Abstract:

Electronic waste is a product of rapid turnover in computer technology. In 2002, North Carolina alone will generate over 50,000 tons of discarded electronic equipment. CompuTel, a Charlotte-based company founded by John Rhinehardt in 1994, recycles computer parts and materials. The company had revenues of over $500,000 in 2001. Martin discusses the company and computer recycling in the state.
