Bicyclean E-Waste Recycling System by Rachel FieldThe Unites States generates more electronic waste than any other nation on earth. According to the EPA, more than <strong>4.6 million tons</strong> entered domestic landfills in 2000, and 50-80% of our total e-waste is exported to developing nations where defunct electronics wind up in dumps, polluting the environment, and littering neighborhoods. That's why 22-year-old engineering graduate Rachel Field has invented the Bicyclean - a pedal-powered grinder and e-waste separation system. Small-scale, affordable, and socially responsible, the Bicylean is a current contender for the James Dyson Award.1
