Thank you!! By the way, my father still has our Sony Trinitron TV from 1995 and our KDS Avitron Monitor from 2000. They both still work. My mother believes in donating useful things, not just throwing stuff away. I got 3 free iMac G3s from school. They were throwing those away. I also picked up the Dell M770 Monitor for $7!!! CRTs forever buddy! ;)
Fantastic choice! My father recently bought a projector screen TV, but he gave me the Trinitron TV. It used to be the family TV back in 1995 to 2010. It still works!
my father actually recycled my old windows 95 crt computer in 2011 and kept the mouse and the keyboard it made me cry when he bought an lcd pc untill then he threw those mouse and keyboard he said he had that since 1995
Oh man, my family used to have one of those big honking projection TVs, that thing was GINORMOUS and obviously with its size, came how heavy the darn thing was. I don’t know how my parents got that thing into the house… my grandparents also had one, they literally had their house built around it (it was in their basement) and was actually used regularly up until they sold their house about two years back
Those crt glass bulbs deserve to be cleanned and turned to art!! A fine piece of sandpaper and or electrical charges to clean off the lead and collected the chemical into a big tub! They deserve honor!
THIS is What they are not telling you. Recycling leaded crt glass is almost impossible. Years ago, a company called closed loop recycling and refining abandoned over 300 million pounds of crt glass. This company took in millions of pounds of crt glass from other recycling companies, while promising a new way of recycling crt glass. Due to this being extremely difficult and expensive, the company went bankrupt, leaving 4 massive warehouses, and large outdoor stockpiles of crt glass abandoned, resulting in massive lawsuits and a 5 year long multi-million dollar cleanup. All this crt glass that was promised to be recycled, but ended up causing environmental damage, and ultimately buried in a landfill.
Another problem in the flicker, but it can be solved by increasing the refresh rate. Also, in any case, high voltages are used to operate, and vacuum tubes and high voltage can create bremsstrahlung X-rays. (This is not the same as your mobile phone, because the mobile phone uses radio waves that are safe). Fortunately, oled displays can return the advantages of CRT, which we lost when switching to LCD screens.
@@fedyaf2710 CRTs have one benefit, the flying spot makes a lot of tech possible with a bit of electronics or processing power. There still isn't an equivalent to a single timer and photodiode for detecting where a person is pointing on a screen.
I think CRTs woudn't be much better than they were in the early 2000s. They are complex mechanical assemblies with the shadow mask or aperture grille. I'm pretty sure that producing 27-32" 4K CRTs would be next to impossible, since the color dots are too close to each other. Also, the size and weight problem remains. And not to forget: CRTs comsume a lot of electricity, for the filament, the anode voltage and the driving circuity. Also, their brightness is quite limited. Additionally, all CRTs I have encountered have a quite reflective screen; I prefer non-glare surfaces. While CRTs became impressively good over the years, in my opinion they are an outdated technology.
@@bitelaserkhalif LCDs and OLEDs can have it, but it's not necessary. It's only because of the processing electronics! You can get pretty fast flatscreens nowadays with few millisecond latency. I think some people can tweak the processing to be faster.
Recycling like this has caused the price of CRTs to go up by a lot. This especially affected the scarcity of PC CRT monitors. You can’t even find a decent PC CRT monitors for under $50 anymore.
Yes CRT Monitors were abandoned way earlier than CRT TVs somehow sadly. I wonder out of all recycled CRTs how many of them have been those really high end ones that would have been worth saving
Your comments here hit the nail on the head. There are so many people out there that can't afford and don't care about new stuff, and would be very happy just to have something that WORKS. (which happens more often with the older stuff anyway!!)
The electron gun shouldn't be smashed off and discarded into the trash. It's made out of many components, and rare earth materials, that it would be great for the environment to use it's materials in parts for smartphones or other things.
the last crt tv i had up until 2009 was a Philips 15PT1767/05 and the picture was amazing to say it was a crt flat screen new in 2005 4 years later of being used every day the only thing that made me get rid of the poor tv was the power switch failed if i could i would of got the switch repaired if it didnt cost so bloody much and i bet it would of being still going as good as new :-( now i just have 2 lcds the philips was proberly one of the best crt tvs i ever owned plus i still have remote4it
I used to repair Sony trinitrons tvs years ago and you needed balls of steel to even lift the 32" on your own. I have to be honest sony and mustubishi diamondtron where my favourites
This is like watching a live execution :-( smashing all those tubes is criminal, i love this technology, much prefer it over lcd stuff. I must have about 40 crts in stock all tvs that I eventually strip and turn into dedicated arcade machine monitors, the tubes are removed and mounted into steel frames with a new arcade chassis, the rest of tv like speakers and tv chassis are stripped for parts which I use for repair work, I collect crt any i find dumped i pick up and reuse them, no way would i let it go to a recycling center to be smashed up.
5:24 The evil container :) BTW. It's good that someone really recycles them. I am using a CRT right now (I love them; no LCD can create more vivid colors than a CRT) but it's better that the materials get recycled than dumped somewhere to decompose by themselves and affect the environment.
That is a damn shame. As SpeakerPolice and I said, it is just horrible what people do with there old technology. I wish the best for you with your job. I have lots of old technology and CRTs.
I guess most have to be recycled but I still find this sad. I guess its a human thing to feel sympathy for inanimate objects. I found a flat screen Sony CRT TV abandoned on the side of the road. It sat there a week on the grass. I couldnt bear its probable fate of someones cheap smash target so I grabbed it and took it home. Works perfectly..
I still have a 19inch KDS, which was the sharpest CRT I ever saw. Supposedly KDS was the same technology and insides as trinitron, which made their CRT screens in 1/3s. If you look closely, you can see two thin lines running horizontally 1/3 up and 2/3s up from the bottom of the screen.
I am pretty sure most of those could have still be usable with new computers. The really really old ones should be used for vintage computing or back ups.
For me this is the correct way to "recycle" old CRT televisions, rather thrown in the trash. CRT Televisions, accompanying us since immemorial times :'(
I am watching this through a catode tube. I still prefere the old tubes to the different sorts of flat schreens. I just like the colours better. yet this is an amazing plant.
Crt became my one of physics's crush just after learning physics behind it to make my own oscilloscope , spectrum analyser , x ray , megnetic fiend visualizations .
I too have had second thoughts about electronics recycling, after seeing what happens to it...the best way to e-recycle is to e-reuse. Give it to someone who can use it!
That is correct. Those lines are the stabilizing bars for the aperture grille, which was technology used in place of the much more common, but inferior, shadow mask.
You WILL have, eventually. CRTs last about 10 years, but since the circuitry use hi-power and hi-voltage components which get quite stressed-out (eg line transformer) they fail well before. When 'captive' spares (Sony's) run out, you'll be in a cul-de-sac. But, hey, by that time LCD and LED monitors will have reached a quality level well beyond those of CRTs. We bought a LG LCD TV 4 years ago for €400. Nowadays for the same price you can buy one bigger and miles better in term of image quality.
That only happens if they are used hard. By the time a properly used CRT picture starts to diminish, a comparable flat panel will be dead and buried. On top of that, CRTs using tons of power is a misconception--the power comparison is much closer than you think! Check out the label on the back of your precious LCD if you don't believe me. HDMI is what's trash--its only reason for existence is copyright protection, along with HDCP. Component and DVI both support higher quality video.
Aww, kinda sad (especially the music). Those old CRTs were good to me through the years, lol. I'm on a flat panel now, but I still have one that other family members use and 2 others I need to get rid of.
This is a cool video; I've never actually seen a CRT cut open before. But I've been reading that now that there is no demand for leaded glass for new CRTs, no one is willing to recycle them anymore and most of them end up in landfills in one form or another.

@SpeakerPolice I still watch TV and game on a circa 91 Sony Trinitron, found it on ebay cheap and it still looks great...should it ever die I will replace it with another CRT...I wouldn't have it any other way. The Trinitron is an awesome technology that doesn't get near enough credit. But everyone wants to throw away the tried and true for the new and flashy, unfortunately.
You are totally right! CRTs rule! People out there that don't what their old technology, don't "recycle" it, donate it!! There are people out there who still want and need a computer. (Old or New, it doesn't matter). There is a great company called computers for classrooms. They take old technology donations. This video shows how wasteful people are. Make a better change in this terrible world.
Thats what j say my tv in my living room is 39 years old and it still works i dond have a single flat screen tv in my hole house cause when you buy a new one your when it dose not work anymore your going to go by a new one but that dosent work that way in my house my kids have bin asken for a new flat screen tv and i sid if this tv breaks we are not geting another one im going to repair this one when you move out you can bye a flat screen
my old CRT I'm using now will soon end up in a recycling plant like that!!! Upgrading to a 22 inch flat panel monitor ..............................LOT better than a 17 inch OLD CRT!!! almost as old as me and it still works HAHA
I think i am going to cry, he just threw those poor flyback transformers into the basket like that! I would have treated them much better. They would fit very nicely into my garage!
I have an older LCD, which I need because it has higher resolution then my older CRTs. THe CRTS were still sharper, and more accurate for color printing, but this LCD is easier on my eyes, generates less heat, and uses less energy. I have an 20 Inch 4:3 Samsung 203b. It has larger pixels then most LCDs so it is realllly nice and easy on the eyes.
Usually, the CRT tube itself is the only thing I wouldn't be able to repair. It's a sealed unit, and if anything goes wrong inside (though it is pretty rare) you can't fix it. Everything else, at least in the older sets, is replaceable...
@dead channel My reply is a decade old at this point, but I was referring to a CRT tube itself being non-repairable. They are sealed glass envelopes like light bulbs and nothing inside can be repaired without destroying the tube seal.
yea im aware of horizontal lines i still love crts truth it i did buy a 400$ lcd last year i returned it and wenbt back to my crt i hated it all the viewing angles messed up dark where it shouldnt be dark white spots when white never again ' i take a chance to flat when led or oled comes ina resonable price
you are completly right i got only one lcd monitor for more i only use crts i have a perfect working fujitsu crt monitor and a perfect working crt monitor i found on the street
I understand your reasoning for certain technologies, like the Betamax cassette or 8-track. But the only reason CRT technology isn't used anymore is because people don't like heavy, bulky things, and there is a readily available lightweight alternative (LCD). CRT tech is in no way inferior to flat panel, picture quality-wise. Development has stopped, however, so we are very unlikely to see it used to its full potential.
Yes. there are metals like lead and other toxic elements on it's construction, but the most dangerous part about it is that an operating CRT may keep huge electrical loads inside it, even if not plugged for some time. And the other part why they must be recicled with care by trained people is that they are vaccum tubes, so it may implode if hit hard enough.
Oh that sucks. Why get rid of a working monitor when it could be used as a 2nd display? I use a CRT as a second display for my laptops though I prefer LCD. Why throw it away if it works though? I mean I have a 70's black and white TV sitting in my closet after sitting in my Grandpa's closet for 20-30 years. I have three videos on it and it is still a great TV when hooked up to a converter box.
crt monitors have better response time as lcd making them better gaming platforms. too bad they didn't wanted to make an HD CRT 16/9 400 hz >>>> that would beat all lcd and rival oled on depth
Great crts for gaming i just found: (i have 2x ibm 260) EIZO/Nanao Flexscan F930 NEC MultiSync FP1370 IBM ThinkVision C220p HP P1230 Iiyama Vision Master Pro 514 (best by far-200hz!!)
my school still uses crts, they are a lot better than lcd in my opinion, but for some reason they like using the really small screen ones, in my computer tech classroom there are lots of crts with bigger screens. A lot of ppl think that lcd is better, but i love crt and always will, sadly my mom made me get rid of my old crt monitor.
Had to buy my first non-CRT TV recently. Not as good a picture as the CRT, but the cabinet looks great. But for the computer, I'm sticking with CRT. I have a 15" now that I've had for at least 10 years. Might go to 17" if this ever conks out.
Overclocking be like in crt qnd flat scheern Crt: 4k resulution at 1hz. Just put more voltage in the flyback transformator Lcd: u cant to that or its gonna die
incredible that they destroy crt televisions you think is good instead of donating them to arcade machines where they most occupy them they use it as an arcade monitor or I end up crt tv vga arcade monitor Those people are so stupid that they screw the televisions instead of donating them to arcade machines
The problem is that most recyclers' definitions of 'End of Life' are not accurate. 'End of Life' should be when the set has actually reached the end of its usable lifespan, not when someone dumps it because something 'better' comes along.

Oh that sucks. Why get rid of a working monitor when it could be used as a 2nd display? I use a CRT as a second display for my laptops though I prefer LCD. Why throw it away if it works though? I mean I have a 70's black and white TV sitting in my closet after sitting in my Grandpa's closet for 20-30 years. I have three videos on it and it is still a great TV when hooked up to a converter box.
my toshiba 29 inch crt tv still works fine and my daddy bought it ever since i was just 4 years old and tat was 17 years ago!!!
crt monitors have better response time as lcd making them better gaming platforms. too bad they didn't wanted to make an HD CRT 16/9 400 hz >>>> that would beat all lcd and rival oled on depth
I can buy used CRT for 10$, they can do 160 hz,
And how much cost used 144hz lcd? 150$???
Great crts for gaming i just found: (i have 2x ibm 260)
EIZO/Nanao Flexscan F930
NEC MultiSync FP1370
IBM ThinkVision C220p
HP P1230
Iiyama Vision Master Pro 514 (best by far-200hz!!)
There are a few 1080i 16:9 CRTs.
Image quality is way lower though
@@frog382 I own the HP P1230
On top of that, the space and weight CRTs take up in storage makes them ever more expensive when compared to LCD displays.
You monster those computer monitors where purfticly good
What was the powder substance vacuumed from the tube?
Phosphor
my school still uses crts, they are a lot better than lcd in my opinion, but for some reason they like using the really small screen ones, in my computer tech classroom there are lots of crts with bigger screens. A lot of ppl think that lcd is better, but i love crt and always will, sadly my mom made me get rid of my old crt monitor.
This is cutting edge technology in the middle east and Egypt.
Had to buy my first non-CRT TV recently. Not as good a picture as the CRT, but the cabinet looks great.
But for the computer, I'm sticking with CRT. I have a 15" now that I've had for at least 10 years. Might go to 17" if this ever conks out.
How do i get a job at one of these places?
i work at a place like this. i put the tube in a robotic saw though. its a lot dirtier
great video...
where is this plant ?
@hardstyle905
That's a great idea to make an Oscilloscope! Make a video of it and post it as a video response!
my crts go 2048x1536 and 2304 x 1440 @ 80Hz so i think you havnt seen a high end crt i hope you do there amazing
Overclocking be like in crt qnd flat scheern
Crt: 4k resulution at 1hz. Just put more voltage in the flyback transformator
Lcd: u cant to that or its gonna die
That must be eye melting experience.
incredible that they destroy crt televisions you think is good instead of donating them to arcade machines where they most occupy them they use it as an arcade monitor or I end up crt tv vga arcade monitor
Those people are so stupid that they screw the televisions instead of donating them to arcade machines
Poor crt 😢I'm just crying ❤
I use the monitor casing for Cat House ... with some modifications ..
0:01 Why is the grass growing between typewriter keys?? hmm
Thank you! That seems a rarity on the Internet these days...
These CRT workers, work at Break Neck Speed.
The problem is that most recyclers' definitions of 'End of Life' are not accurate. 'End of Life' should be when the set has actually reached the end of its usable lifespan, not when someone dumps it because something 'better' comes along.
R.I.P. CRT's
Too sad
