Dealing with discarded electronic materials has become a major issue. Some of the common electronic materials which are thrown include telephones, television sets and computers. For a long time now, environments have recommended the re use of such materials for the greater benefit of human kind. This call has been heard by many nations. This can be seen through the high number of reusing industries which have been set up. If these wastes are not managed properly, they can cause pollution which is harmful to human beings. Therefore, there has to be properly set ways of dealing with dallas e-waste.
Some of the scraps may contain contaminants such as lead, cadmium and brominated flame retardants. Recycling and disposal of scraps from electrical gadgets may cause risk to the health of workers as well as to the entire nation. Industries in Austin should be careful to avoid unsafe exposure which is caused by leakage of heavy metals from landfill and incinerator ashes. International environmental bodies have agreed all industries should be cautious when doing their processing activities.
Discarded computers, phones, electrical devices and refrigerators that are destined for reuse, resale, salvage or disposal fall under this category of refuse. Rapid evolution of technology has led to increased growth of electronic residue. There are technical solutions that can be undertaken to control the rapid rise of electronic scraps. However the most preferable mode of controlling the growth is formulation of legal framework. This will be implemented before applying technical solution.
Processors are more likely going to be out-dated hence becoming electrical scraps. The hardware is on the other hand replaced often depending on the condition of the gadget. Research shows that united state discards 30 million computers annually while Europe discards 100 million phones annually. Out of this electronic residue only a quarter of it can be recycled. According to the survey conducted by UNEP it is estimated that the amount of refuse is likely to grow by 500 per cent over the next decade in most developed nations.
United States is leading in production of electronics producing about 3 million tons annually. Many electronic scrap contain hazardous material but it can also have valuable resources. It is true that the number of discarded scrap is increasing but there is no consideration of the level of risk that these materials expose to community. It is however skeptical whether increased trade for computers and phones will improve the living standards or bring health complication.
Regulations set up to curtail the level of export of electronics have caused economic disincentives in the developed nations. Recycling brokers have made it difficult to control entry of unwanted electronic parts because of exporting unchecked materials. Africa and Asia are most the affected continents when it comes to handling scraps.
There are some people who do not dispose materials well. Instead, they throw them into the environment carelessly. Such individuals should be punished by the law. Doing so will save the environment.
Environmental degradation might cause negative effects. To avoid such adverse consequences, governments should act promptly. Therefore, local authorities ought to be on the lookout for those destroying the environment by throwing electronic wastes all over.
