1. Electronics Recycling -
A Solution to E-Waste

2. Electronic waste or e-waste describes discarded electrical or
electronic devices. Used electronics which are destined for
reuse, resale, salvage, recycling or disposal are also
considered as e-waste. Informal processing of electronic
waste in developing countries may cause serious health and
pollution problems, as these countries have limited
regulatory oversight of e-waste processing.
What is Electronics Recycling?

3. Benefits of Electronic Recycling
Conserves natural resources. Recycling recovers valuable materials from old
electronics that can be used to make new products. As a result, we save energy,
reduce pollution, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and save resources by extracting
fewer raw materials from the earth.
Protects your surroundings. Safe recycling of outdated electronics promotes sound
management of toxic chemicals such as lead and mercury.
Helps others. Donating your used electronics benefits your community by passing on
ready-to-use or refurbished equipment to those who need it.
Saves landfill space. E-waste is a growing waste stream. By recycling these items,
landfill space is conserved.
Create Jobs. E Cycling creates jobs for professional recyclers and refurbishers and
creates new markets for the valuable components that are dismantled.
