E-Waste Management
and Handling Rules
E-waste is an informal name for
electronic products nearing the end of their useful life. E-waste is considered
dangerous, as certain components of some electronic products contain materials
that are hazardous, depending on their condition and density. The hazardous
content of these materials pose a threat to human health and environment.
Discarded computers, refrigerators, washing machines, televisions, Hair Drier,
Water purifier, Vacuum Cleaner, VCRs, stereos, copiers, fax machines, electric
lamps, cell phones, audio equipment, other Electronic Items and batteries if
improperly disposed can leach into soil and groundwater. Many of these products
can be reused, refurbished, or recycled in an environmentally sound manner so
that they can be less harmful to the ecosystem.
Benefits of E-waste Recycling
Electronics Recycling Conserves Natural Resources
There are many materials that can be recovered from
old electronics. These materials can be used to make new products, thus
reducing the need to mine for new raw materials. For instance, various metals
can be recovered from computer circuit board, sand other electronics, and the
plastics and glass found in computer monitors and televisions can be recycled.
Electronics Recycling Supports the Community
Donating your old electronics plays an important
role in the provision of refurbished products such as TVs, computers and mobile
phones, which can be of great help to low-income families, schools, and
not-for-profit organizations. It also helps individuals gain access to
technology that they could not have other-wise afforded.
Electronics Recycling Creates Employment Locally
Considering that around 90 percent of electronic
equipment is recyclable, electronics recycling can play a significant role in
creating employment. This is because new firms dealing with electronics
recycling will form and existing firms will look to employ more people to
recover recyclable materials. This can be triggered by the increase in the
demand for electronics recycling.
Electronics Recycling Helps Protect Public Health and the Environment
Many electronics have toxic or hazardous materials
such as mercury and lead, which can be harmful to the environment if disposed
of in trashcans. Reusing and recycling electronics safely helps in keeping the
hazardous materials from harming humans or the environment. For example,
televisions and computer monitors are hazardous since they have lead in them.
Printed circuit boards contain harmful materials such as cadmium, lead, mercury
and chromium. Also, batteries in computers and other electronics may contain
hazardous materials such as cadmium, mercury and lead. Instead of keeping old
electronics in the house or dumping them in landfills, recycling or reusing
them is an appropriate option that should be supported by individuals and
organizations. Considering the benefits of electronics recycling, it is very
important that people in various parts around the world embrace this concept.
