Innovative ideas on circular economy in E-waste

Today, electronic waste poses a significant challenge for society. With the introduction of innovative features and up-gradation, people are changing their devices by discarding the old ones, thereby contributing to the generation of electronic waste significantly.

Replacing the linear systems with circular in electrical and electronic equipment intends to maximize value at each life-cycle stage by reusing, repairing, recovering remanufacturing, regenerating products and material.

Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY) observes Swachhata Pakhwada 2022 from 1st February 2022 to 15th February 2022 promoting ‘E-waste se Raksha- Swachhata hi Suraksha’. Citizens are invited to share their innovative ideas on how circular economy practices can help in sustainable and efficient E-waste Management.

The best entries from the citizens will be identified by the Ministry and will be featured on the MyGov page.

The last date to receive suggestions is 15th February 2022.

ई-कचरे के समुचित उपयोग के लिए मेरे पास कुछ बिंदु हैं, वे सभी नीचे दिए गए हैं: - 1. लोगों को ई-कचरे के पुनर्चक्रण के बारे में जागरूक करने के लिए जागरूकता शिविर का आयोजन किया जाए। 2. स्कूल/कॉलेज में शहर/राज्य स्तर पर आयोजित एक प्रतियोगिता जो ई-कचरे के पुनर्चक्रण या ई-कचरे द्वारा उत्पाद बनाने के बारे में है (उस प्रतियोगिता में एक मूल्य राशि या प्रमाण पत्र शामिल किया जाना चाहिए) और निश्चित रूप से हमें बहुत रचनात्मक विचार मिलेंगे हमारी युवा पीढ़ी से। 3. सरकार छात्रों से नवीन विचार प्राप्त करने के लिए घर/उद्योग स्तर से ई-कचरा एकत्र करने और स्कूल/कॉलेज/संस्थान में वितरण करने की सुविधा देती है। 4. ई-कचरे के पुनर्चक्रण और ई-कचरे से उत्पाद बनाने के बारे में प्रदर्शनी का आयोजन। 5. एक उचित ई-कचरा पुनर्चक्रण प्रणाली विकसित की जानी चाहिए। 6. एक उद्योग विकसित किया जाना चाहिए जो ई-कचरे द्वारा नवीनीकृत उत्पाद बनाते हैं।

E-Waste management seeks to recover and process the electronic waste and recycle or refurbish it to make it useful. But, electronic recycling can be challenging especially because these devices are sophisticated and manufactured from varying proportions of glass, metals and plastics. Depending on the type of electronics, the process for recycling or refurbishing may change.ई-कचरे के समुचित उपयोग के लिए मेरे पास कुछ बिंदु हैं, वे सभी नीचे दिए गए हैं: - 1. हमें ऐसा उद्योग खोलना चाहिए जो ई-कचरे पर काम करे इससे बेरोजगारों को भी काम मिलेगा और ई-कचरे का भी दोबारा इस्तेमाल होगा। 2. हमें एक सरकारी वाहन भी शुरू करना चाहिए जो रोजाना लोगों के पास जा सके और उनका ई-कचरा इकट्ठा कर सके। 3. दुकान या गोदाम बनाना जिसमें लोग अपना ई-कचरा आसानी से बेच सकें 4. हमें ई-कचरे से बनी चीजों का ज्यादा से ज्यादा इस्तेमाल करना चाहिए। 5. लोगों को ई-कचरे से कुछ उपयोगी चीजें बनाने के लिए प्रोत्साहित करें 6. एक ऐसा ऐप बनाना जिसमें लोग अपना पुराना और इस्तेमाल न किया हुआ इलेक्ट्रॉनिक्स कचरा बेचकर पैसे कमाएं

The best way for E-Waste is to use triple R - RRR 1. Reduce: We are using more and more devices and replacing them more often. Changing this habit depends as much on the consumer — who should be less susceptible to marketing strategies that encourage consumption — as on manufacturers who are increasingly adopting policies like ecodesign. 2. Reuse: The experts in electronic recycling recommend that friends or family inherit devices that still work, or that they be offered on the second hand market. There is also the possibility of donating them to specialised charities. 3. Recycle: When the item no longer works and there is no chance of it being used by someone close, recycling should be the option. One option for the consumer is to hand the old device in to the shop where the new one is being purchased, or to some company that specialises in electronic refurbishment.

E-Waste management process should includes the following: 1. Collection: gathering e-waste from various sources, enterprises, organizations and individuals. 2. Dismantling: Disintegration of all the components and materials of the e-waste to analyse which can be reused and which can go as scrap. 3. Data Sanitization: ensuring that data is rendered unusable or is completely wiped out to ensure it cannot be retrieved in any possible way. 4. Recycling: complete segregation of parts and materials that is then used to build new electronic products. 5. Refurbishing: reuse of the working, good quality products to replace parts and extend the life of other electronic equipment.

Consider limiting the number of electronics we own. If we don’t really need an extra gadget, look for devices that have multiple functions.

Government must form a registered recycling firm. Understand security issues. All of your personal information remains stored on your electronic devices even if you delete it, so that’s another reason not to throw it away. Approach the registered recycling firm as they can scrub your device clean before it gets recycled, so there is no opportunity for cyber thieves to get that information.

Recycle, recycle, recycle. No matter what you have, it’s important to always dispose of your e-waste properly. That means recycling all of your used electronics, with the understanding that improperly disposing of e-waste is becoming more and more hazardous, particularly since the volume of e-waste has skyrocketed.

Teach kids about e-waste. Children are our future, and it helps if we can instill within them at a young age a commit to e-waste recycling.

Reuse as often as possible. If you have parts and equipment that are still working, try repairing the electronic device before getting a new one. And if the device is beyond the point of being repaired, then recycle it.

We can also help keep down the cost of new consumer goods by using recycled parts to make new products. This is a far less expensive proposition for manufacturers than having to go mining for virgin ore to make new metals. This means that the cost of making a new smartphone, or any other electronic device, goes down once manufacturers are able to access the parts they need from the recycling industry.
