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.

Respected Ma'am/Sir, I am Aarya Gupte from grade 9 from SIIS school, Mulund. I would like to convey a utilitarian idea of making our India a country free of E-waste to save our environment. In olympics 2021, the medals awarded were created using tons of E-waste, similarly in India we can build up factories for recycling E-waste collected in recycling bins and making varieties of new artefacts like show pieces, the symbolics lion of Make in India campaign, jewellery, wiring and refurbished devices. Thank you.

management of e-waste - Initiatives such as 1. Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR); 2. Design for Environment (DfE); 3. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (3Rs), technology platform for linking the market facilitating a circular economy aim to encourage consumers to correctly dispose their e-waste, with increased reuse and recycling rates, and adopt sustainable consumer habits. In developed countries, e-waste management is given high priority, while in developing countries it is exacerbated by completely adopting or replicating the e-waste management of developed countries and several related problems including, lack of investment and technically skilled human resources. In addition, there is lack of infrastructure and absence of appropriate legislations specifically dealing with e-waste. Also, there is inadequate description of the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders and institutions involved in e-waste

Electronic devices when reach end of life still remain resourceful. Efficient resource recovery from e-waste can substantially reduce carbon emissions on account of metals recovered compared to mining. In order to enable effective circularity: 1. Cacapitate ragulators. Improve regulatory governance 2. Facilitate informal-formal integration and curb rudimentary processing in informal sector 3. Incentivize DfE and efficient resource recovery technologies 4. Educate citizens on Dos & Donts 5. Bring standards for monitoring EPR compliance 6. Prioritize resource recovery over collection targets 7. Standardize the refurbishment market

The government should encourage repair technicians. Increase repair work training to minimize electronic waste. The repair work will extend the lifespan of the electronic goods. Companies that manufacture electronic goods must carry out the repair work either directly or through their sales service centers. Prolonging the lifespan rather than reusing it will prevent the accumulation of e-waste. People send electronic items to the trash only when the repair is no longer effective. Service centers say manufacturers are not cooperating. Only spare parts are available for quality from manufacturers. Companies that make electronic goods that cannot be repaired by service centers must provide repair facilities on their premises. Announce a tax deduction for vital spare parts to extend the lifespan of electronic devices.
