Handling and Scientific Disposal of E- Waste Presented by-- Mr. Hemant Patel Managing Director Mahaarana Industries Private Limited.

What is E-Waste…???. As per the E-waste Management R ules,2016 . ‘E-waste’ means electrical and electronic equipment, whole or in part discarded as waste by the consumer or bulk consumer as well as rejects from manufacturing, refurbishment and repair processes. As per the latest forecast, E-waste’s global worth is approximately $57 billion, which is more than the GDP of most of the countries..

SCENARIO OF E-WASTE RECYCLING. India is now officially world’s 3 rd biggest e-waste generator, producing over 3.23million metric tones of e-waste per year. While hardly anything ends up in landfill but the big worry is 95% of e-waste is still handled by informal sector. As per CPCB, India collects total e-waste of 3% in 2018 and 10% in 2019 Recycling materials will save landfill space. Reclaiming valuable materials from recycling process, means decreased demand of new materials- conserve resources. Using recycled material will also help reduce greenhouse gas emissions produced when manufacturing and processing new product. Discarded electronic devices can also be kept out of the landfill, if they are refurbished reused and donated to a worthy cause..

SOURCES OF E-WASTE. Through Household IT sector By Government Sector Through Producer Industrial sector.

COLLECTION OF E-WASTE. We have tie-ups with PRO As per CPCB rules, total 36 collection center. PRO gets the authority by CPCB for collection targets. We have mobile application by which its easier to collect e-waste Through website also we can collect e-waste.

SEGREGATION OF E-WASTE. The collected e-waste will be segregated into various categories, dissembled and segregated to separate populated PCBs and connectors . Segregation of items such as glass components, metal fittings, screws, connectors, cables, heat sinks, plastic enclosures, fans, transformers, batteries etc..

CLASSIFICATION OF E-WASTE. As per E-waste Management Rules, 2016, Schedule-1, Items listed are classified as E-waste. Consumer Goods : Television , Refrigerator, Washing Machine etc. Information Technology : Computers, Laptops, Printers, Scannners etc. Electronic Goods : Vaccum Cleaners, irons, blenders, fryers etc..

Common Concept of E-Waste Management. E-waste can be collected by door-to-door facility. E-waste can be collected by campaigns at social sites. E-waste can be collected by doing awareness programs which could be in offices, schools, colleges. E-waste can be collected by putting bins in all the sectors and spread awareness regarding it, and end user can put the used electronics in the bin, which will then be recycled. E-waste is mostly collected from informal sectors..

Composition of E-Waste. Recycling of E-Waste is necessary but it should be conducted in a safe and standardized manor. The dangerous nature of Electronic Waste is one of the fastest growing environment problems of the world. Lack of awareness and appropriate skills increases amount of Electronic Waste. Necessary information should be provided to these workers for safe handling of E-Waste and personal protection..

COLLECTION. Major E-waste items collected: Television sets Washing Machine Air-conditioners Refrigerator Information technology and telecommunication equipment (IT).

LEVELS OF TREATMENT OF E-WASTE. There are 3 levels of treatment of E-Waste: 1 st level treatment- Decontamination, Segregation, Handling, Storage 2 nd level treatment- Hammering, Shredding, Special T reatment (CRT treatment, Electromagnetic Separation, Eddy current separation, Density separation using water) 3 rd level treatment- Precious Metal Recovery by chemical process (Gold, Silver, Platinum, Copper).

WAYS OF DISPOSAL OF E-WASTE. Give back to your electronic companies and drop off points Visit Civic Institutions- Government Schools, Collages, Universities for Collection campaign Donating your outdated technology Sell of your outdated technology Give your electronic waste to a Certified E-Waste Recycler..
