Today E-waste poses a hazardous threat not only to the environment, but also to the people dealing with it.
Owing to its toxic nature, e-waste needs to be disposed in an environmentally responsible and safe manner.
With the advent of digital and mobile technology, every year more and more people purchase smart phones,
tablets and laptops, while also discarding their older gadgets at an increasingly rapid rate. India discards 8,500
mobile handsets, 5.500 TV sets and 3,000 personal computers every day. A study titled e-waste in India by
2015. The discarded electronic products ultimately reach landfills or incineration centres through the informal
sector which includes rag pickers , local scrap dealers and dismantler. If these electronic items are discarded with
other regular household garbage, e-waste toxins end up posing an enormous threat to health and vital
components of the eco system.
E-waste typically contains complex combination of toxic materials and components down to microscopic levels.
Most electronic goods contain significant quantities of toxic metals and chemicals like mercury, lead and
cadmium. While mercury's organic compound methyl mercury has been scientifically proven to be neuro-
toxicant that damages the brain, other toxins are also capable of causing lethal health complications,
Electronic waste needs to be processed in an environment-friendly way, not just to dispose of its toxins but to
recover valuable resources like precious and rare earth metals including gold, silver and palladium. Recovering
resources in an environmentally friendly way, reduces carbon foot prints in a big way and enhances
sustainability factor.
The problem of e-waste has become grimmer and it's essential that it is tackled on an urgent basis. As we move
further in our millennia and in light of Prime Minister's digital India campaign, our despondency on
technologically advanced goods will increase by leaps and bounds, which will in turn catalyze the existing
problem of electronic waste.
