Not a good example.

WEEE means waste electrical and electronic equipment, and the plastics recovered from this source typically contain brominated flame retardants (BFR) and antimony trioxide. Both are toxic, and Sb2O4 is a suspected carcinogen. They are expensive to remove in recycling and are not desirable in fuels. So this type of plastic waste is nearly worthless.

...mixed plastic recovered from weee recycling in regrind, US$0.04/lb...
