Break them down into small pieces and dispose of them properly.
       
Save them until we have the technology to recycle them safely.

Answer 1

The correct ANSWER &

approach is to

Break them down into small pieces and dispose of them properly.

Recycling should be cost effective to producing new items as well as safe & pollution-reducing , especially toxic pollutants.

so,there is no point in recycling releasing toxic chemicals which may be a health hazard to those involved & around.

Using them in other products , is only going to delay the decision of how to dispose , which may even become costlier over time.

Same with the option of saving them & waiting for technology to improve --ie. is only going to delay the decision of how to dispose , which may even become costlier over time--will also involve,storage costs of the materails to be recycled.
