Have an idea for a way to improve recovery and recyclability of critical materials used to produce mobile phones, appliances, medical equipment, and other electronics scrap? Help keep mined minerals and other valuable materials from going into landfills.
We want your idea for Phase 1 of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced the launch of the Electronics Scrap Recycling Advancement Prize (E-SCRAP). This three-phase competition will award up to $4 million to competitors to substantially increase the production and use of critical materials recovered from electronic scrap—or e-scrap.
Submit your idea by 5 p.m. ET on Sept. 4, 2024. Review the prize rules, see if you're eligible, and stay up to date on E-SCRAP.
