E-waste: Its gravity


VERY SEVERE

In USA alone?
Between 1997 and 2007, nearly 500 million personal computers will be obsolete-almost two computers for each person. 750,000 computers expected to end up in landfills this year alone. These figures in Europe are much similar.

E-waste: Its gravity


In USA there are 500 registered recyclers.
Last year E-waste generated about 2 billion dollars of revenue.

Which according to reports is just 20% of e-waste treated and recycled.


Where is the rest?

Africa is becoming a Dump yard.


Who is next?

E-waste in India
Conditions in India are also not promising As per IRG report India generates about 1,46,180 tons of E-waste every year.

This is contributed by both house holds and corporate houses.

E-waste: Its implications


Electronic products often contain hazardous and toxic materials that pose environmental risks if they are land filled or incinerated. Televisions, video and computer monitors use cathode ray tubes (CRTs), which have significant amounts of lead. Printed circuit boards contain primarily plastic and copper, and most have small amounts of chromium, lead solder, nickel, and zinc.

E-waste: Its implications


In addition, many electronic products have batteries that often contain nickel, cadmium, and other heavy metals. Relays and switches in electronics, especially older ones, may contain mercury.
Also, capacitors in some types of older and larger equipment that is now entering the waste stream may contain polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)

E-waste: Its solution


Reuse is the environmentally preferable option by extending the life of old equipments that defers the pollution and resource consumption associated with in making new products. Reuse provides opportunity, to the underprivileged who cannot afford or have no access to electronic equipment, at reduced or no cost. Electronic equipments which commercially & practically not good for reuse or is broken beyond repair, may be sent for disassembly i.e. salvaging parts, and selling reclaimed materials like ferrous, non ferrous, plastic, glass.

E-waste: Its solution


Several electronic equipment, such as
computers, monitors, printers, and scanners, contain materials suitable for reclamation and use in new products. These may include plastic, glass, steel, aluminum, copper, gold, silver, and other metals.

Present Recycling Scenario
