The document discusses the need for environmentally sound management of e-waste in India. It provides background on the growth of e-waste in India and outlines some of the key issues with current informal and unregulated recycling practices. It proposes that separate e-waste management rules be published under the Environment Protection Act to establish an effective regulatory system for e-waste in India. This would make producers responsible for taking back and recycling e-waste and define responsibilities for other stakeholders in the e-waste value chain to ensure safer and more sustainable recycling.
Clean to Green is a free take-back program for used or defective electronic products (e-waste) to ensure their safe and environmentally sound recycling. Clean to Green is funded by producers of electrical and electronic equipment and complies with the E-waste Management Rules.
EWRI is here with one mission, save the environment from our e-waste so we can keep this dear planet habitable for our future generation. The more technological dependent we are becoming, the more we are producing E-Waste.
This presentation suggest reverse supply chain of safe disposal of e waste in India.It shows how the traditional disposal system of waste could be used in order to safe disposal of e waste and establish a reverse supply chain for different category of e waste.
Today we all are surrounded by huge pollution.They are ready to attack us all together in the form of Air-pollution,water-pollution,sound-pollution etc.Electronic wastes are one of them which are dominating our lives and livings.If it is ignored or under-estimated now then it will be too late for our future generations to get control over it.So we should come all together in a wrestling ring against these pollutions and kick them away from our environment and eco-system.

e waste and its management.
E-waste is electronic products that are unwanted, not working, and nearing or at the end of their “useful life.” Computers, televisions etc.
This presentation is basically is on about e waste management in india , how electronic waste is dumped in india and how waste is tackled in the world as major dumping zone of ewaste of western countries is Asia.
In this research paper, researcher has tried to focus on What is present scenario of E waste management in India & What are the procedures and methods used in its handling?
Quantifying E-waste Generation and Management: An Empirical Analysis

2. e-Waste
What is E-waste?
Electronic Waste (e-Waste) comprises of waste
electronic/electrical goods which are not fit for their
originally intended use. These include items such as
computers, cellular phones, stereos, refrigerators, air
conditioners, other consumer durables, etc.
Is e-Waste Hazardous?
E-waste is not hazardous waste per-se. However, the
hazardous constituents present in the e-waste render it
hazardous when such wastes are dismantled and
processed, since it is only at this stage that they pose
hazard to health and environment.

4. Information and telecom fastest growing industry verticals
PC sales crossed 7.3 million units in 2007-08 growing 16%;
installed base of over 25 million units
Consumer electronics market growing at 13-15% annually ; 120
million installed base of TVS
Cellular subscriber up by 96.86% over last year; Indtalled
base to cross 300 million by 2010

Potential Annual e-Waste:
3,82,979 MT
• of this Imports: 50K MT
Level 2
Total e-Waste
available for recycling

6. E-waste recycling is presently concentrated
in the informal (unorganized) sector
No organized collection system prevails
Operations are mostly illegal
Processes are highly polluting
Recycling operations engage in:
dismantling
sale of dismantled parts
valuable resource recovery
export of processed waste for precious metal
recovery
6
7. High-risk backyard operation
Non- efficient and Non-
environmentally sound technologies
Occupational and environmental
hazards
Loss of resources due to inefficient
processes
Impacts vulnerable social groups-
Women, children and mmigrant
labourers

8. Various legislations cover different aspects of e-waste
The hazardous waste (management and handling ) rules, 1998 as
amended in 2008 for Toxic content – registration mandatory for
recyclers
Municipal Solid Waste Management & Handling Rules for non-Toxic
content
Basel convention for regulating transboundary movement
Foreign Trade policy restricts import of second-hand computers and
does not permit import of e-waste
‘Guidelines’ by Central Pollution Control Board ( 2008)
8
9. The guidelines notified in April 2008 - basic guidance document
identifying and recognizing fundamental principles:
Producer Responsibility
RoHS (Restriction on Hazardous Substances)
Best practices
Insight into technologies for various levels of recycling
The guidelines explicitly mention the need for a separate
legislation for implementing ‘Producer Responsibility’
9
10. E-waste is ‘distinct’ as it is an end-of-consumption waste while hazardous waste
results from a distinct industrial process
Environment Protection Act provides for separate regulations for waste with
‘distinct’ characteristics - Biomedical Wastes (M&H) Rules- 1998 , lead acid
batteries, the Batteries (M&H) Rules- 2001 etc.
The e-waste value chain is rather complex as it involves multiple players -
producers, distributors, retailers, end consumers, collection system, recyclers
while hazardous waste chain involves only the ‘occupier/ generator’ and the
‘operator’
Recovery of non-ferrous metals and reprocessing of used oil are the only two
major activities in hazardous waste recycling while e-waste recycling involves
refurbishment for reuse, dismantling and precious metal recovery which is a
complex process
10
11. Title: E-waste (Management & Handling) Rules to be published under the
Environment Protection Act
OBJECTIVE :To put in place an effective mechanism to regulate the
generation, collection, storage, transportation, import, export,
environmentally sound recycling, treatment and disposal of e-waste. This
includes refurbishment, collection system and producer responsibility
thereby reducing the wastes destined for final disposal.
ESSENCE: the producer of electrical and electronic equipments is
responsible for the entire life cycle of its own branded product and in
particular the environmentally sound end-of-life management and facilitating
collection and take back.
11
12. Responsibility of each element in the e-waste Value Chain:
• Producers – Extended/Individual Producer Responsibility
• Dealers
• Collection agencies/ collection Centres
• Dismantler
• Recycler
• Consumer and bulk consumers
Procedure for Authorization of producers, collection agencies,
dismantlers, recyclers and enforcement agencies
Procedure for registration/renewal of registration of recyclers
Regulations for import of e-waste
Liability of producers, collection agencies, transporter, dismantlers and
recyclers
Information & Tracking
Elimination of hazardous substances used in e-equipments
Setting up of Designated Authority to ensure transparency, audit and
inspect facilities, examine authorization/ registration etc.
