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. 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

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.

ई कचरा प्रबंधन देश के प्रत्येक नागरिक के सहयोग से ही प्रभावी ढंग से किया जा सकता है और स्कूल पाठ्यक्रम प्रभावी ई कचरा प्रबंधन विद्यालय का आधार होना चाहिए।

The last stage is the Recovery. The materials, now separated, are prepared for sale and reuse. For some materials, such as plastic or steel, this means joining another recycling stream. Others may be processed onsite and sold directly alongside usable components separated in the early stages.

The fourth Step is the Mechanical Separation. The mechanical separation of the different materials actually consists of several processes one after the other. The two key steps are magnetic separation and water separation.

The third stage is the Manual Sorting, Dismantling, Shredding. E-waste then goes through the initial stage of manual sorting, where various items (such as batteries and bulbs) are removed for their own processing. This is the stage at which some items may also be manually dismantled for components, reuse, or the recovery of valuable materials. E-waste is then shredded into small pieces allowing for accurate sorting of materials, a key part of the process. Most electronics are a mix of materials, and breaking items down into pieces that measure just a few centimeters means they can be separated mechanically.

The second stage is Storage. While safe storage may not appear critical, it can prove very important. For example, the glass screens of Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT) TVs and monitors are highly contaminated by lead. In the past, they were recycled into new computer monitors, but the growth of new technology and subsequent decline in demand for CRT products means much of this glass is now simply being stored indefinitely.

The first stage in the recycling process for e-waste is the collection of electronic products through recycling bins, collection locations, take-back programs, or on-demand collection services. The mixed e-waste is then taken to specialized electronics recyclers. Best practice dictates that e-waste should be separated by type at this stage of the process, which is why many collection sites will have different bins or boxes for different items. This is especially important for e-waste containing batteries, which require special treatment and can be very damaging if mixed with other waste.

Handling e-waste is crucial – not only from a security point of view, but also from the environment standpoint. E-waste if not properly processed could cause more harm after the end of life than it ever did during its use. We care about the sensitive data that organizations may have on electronic equipment. We care about the end of life equipment which could be used to extend the life of another product. We care – when useful electronics wind up in landfills and pose a hazard to the environment. We help make things better by recycling and refurbishing electronic products.

E-waste is not a challenge but a big problem today. The best solution is the recycling of the E-waste. For this, we can run a scheme that whoever collects the most electronic waste material and makes it available to the government, will be given some incentives and certificates. In this way no person will throw the waste material of the house anywhere and small industries will get the same for recycling. Also, every person has to take a pledge that what is worth burning should not be thrown away and the rest worth selling should be given to the junk person so that he can also earn his livelihood.
