he e-waste recycling is a worldwide concern by both

environmental and economic reasons. This is due to

their hazardous content which can posse the ambient and

respectively human life but in the same time, by the valorization

of its content in a sustainable manner, this waste can became

an important secondary resource for manufacturing on new

products. The “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle” paradigm which is

the base of circular economy principle, has been considered

as a base in the realization of Fenix (Future business models

for the Efficient recovery of Natural and Industrial secondary

resources in eXtended supply chains contexts) Horizon 2020

European Project. Within this project, considering our already

achieved experience in the field of e-waste (in particular, waste

printed circuit boards) by hydrometallurgical methods and the

experienceof theother9partners, experts invarious institutions

and fields (SME’s for e-waste collection and recycling, research

centers for materials preparation and characterization and also

in designing of new products), sustainable technologies for in a

closed loop way will be developed.
