E-Waste Management and Handling Rules

E-waste is a popular, informal name for electronic products nearing the end of their useful life. E-wastes are 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, VCRs,  stereos,  copiers,  fax  machines,  electric  lamps,  cell  phones,  audio  equipment , other Electronic Item sand  batteries if improperly disposed can leach lead and other  substances  into soil and  ground water.  Many  of these products  can  be  reused,  refurbished,  or  recycled  in  an  environmentally  sound  manner  so that they are 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 boards and 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 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 otherwise afforded.

 

Electronics Recycling Creates Employment Locally

 

Considering that around90percent 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.
