17、recycling electronic waste, but success has not come without hurdles.The 25yearold man set up his firm five years ago in the garage of his parents house. The business inspiration came from something he saw on TV. “I was watching a documentary about electronic recycling, and I realised there was a lo

18、t of potential in extracting metals from mother boards gold, silver, copper, and platinum,” he says. “It was a booming industry in Europe and the US, but no one in the Middle East was doing it.” It was at that moment that the idea for Recyclobekia was born.Recyclobekias first order soon followed whe

20、al knowledge of the industry. So he flew to Hong Kong to study the work of recycling firms. The trip made Mr. Hemdan realise that he had to make a difference.At the time it was simply collecting the old electronic items and sending them off to its buyer in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong firm would then br

21、eak them apart, separate the materials, and sell them on to other companies which melted down and extracted the individual metals.Mr. Hemdan realised Recyclobekia could get a better price, for waste that had already been broken up and separated.
