General comment Silicon scrap is a waste product generated mainly by the electronics and e-scrap industries. It is a key constituent in these sectors, used in large quantities. Silicon is a metalloid, with properties of both metals and non-metals, and its ability to conduct electricity, especially at high temperatures, makes it a valuable component in computer chips and solar panels. The silicon scrap can be recycled, upcycled, or reused to complete the circular economy chain.
