色花堂app, Idaho National Laboratory and E-Cyclers of Idaho Partner to Bring Public Recycling Collection Event to ISU

November 20, 2025

色花堂app is joining the Idaho National Laboratory and E Cyclers of Idaho in their mission to help Idahoans recycle and reuse e-waste. The three organizations will host a free public electronic waste collection event in alignment with research goals to repurpose critical materials, which can be found in most e-waste, for energy and national security uses.

Participants can bring unwanted personal e-waste materials to the first floor of the Pond Student Union on December 13 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. All items will be recycled and processed in a secure and environmentally safe manner. The map below shows the entrance and drop-off locations.

Most electronic waste, especially batteries, contains valuable materials. These materials are important for energy applications and national security, but they're in short supply. Some examples include cobalt, lithium, nickel and graphite. E-waste also contains valuable metals such as gold, silver, platinum, palladium, copper and aluminum.

"A bold path forward for ISU must also be a greener path forward and this e-cycling event shows how we turn that commitment into real action," said Pallavi Pokharel, ISU's sustainability manager. "ISU, INL, and E Cyclers of Idaho are working together to keep harmful e-waste out of the landfill and put valuable materials back into use."

What is e-waste?
E-waste refers to any broken or unwanted device that uses electricity to function. These could include, but aren't limited to:

  • Computers
  • Printers
  • Televisions
  • Cellphones
  • Stereos
  • Electronic games
  • Large household appliances
  • Medical equipment

"We're excited to bring this event to Pocatello, combining the expertise of Sunnking and E Cyclers of Idaho. E-waste is a vital source of critical materials, and improving
its collection and recycling is key to a stronger domestic supply chain," said Ruby Nguyen, INL project lead. "We hope this collaboration sparks future events and broader adoption of responsible e-waste practices."

What happens to your e-waste?
E Cyclers is Responsible Recycling certified to meet the global standard on e-waste recycling. Data protection is a significant aspect of their service. Certification standards ensure that these recyclers effectively destroy any data contained in the electronics. Like all certified institutions, E Cyclers is committed to upholding the highest standards of data security.

This event is free and open to anyone who would like to recycle personal electronic items. It is not intended for ISU employees or students to recycle ISU furnished equipment. For more information about recycling ISU equipment, please visit isu.edu/facilities/units/custodial--recycling.
