E-Waste Recycler to Build New Facility in the Port of Savannah

SEATTLE (Scrap Monster): Igneo Technologies announced investment of $85 million towards opening of its first U.S. electronics recycling facility. The proposed facility, to be located at SeaPoint Industrial Terminal Complex in the Port of Savannah, will generate around 150 jobs in Chatham County when it becomes fully operational.
