2. We Tried To Get Some People To Know Their Thinking On
E-waste, Which Is As Follows
3.
4.
5. 2002
• E-waste first emerged
as an environmental
issue
2008
• Guidelines for Electronic
Waste Management
• 2 formal recyclers in India
2012
2016
• Revisions E-waste Law
• More than 140 recyclers and
dismantlers in India
• Electronic waste law comes
into effect
• Nearly 100 dismantlers and
recyclers in India
Evolution of E-waste management in India
• Installed Capacity – 350,000 tpa
• Average capacity – 600-7000 tpa
• E-waste Generated – 800,000-1.6 million tpa
• 12 states have at least one dismantler/ recycler
• The rest have no dismantler/ recycler
6. Introduction
•Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi launched the ambitious
'Swachh Bharat Abhiyan' (Clean India Mission) on 2nd October
2014.
•The 'Abhiyan' was launched on the occasion of Mahatma Gandhi's
145th birth anniversary.
•The campaign's official name is in Hindi. In English, it translates to
"Clean India Mission".
•The mission was split into two: rural and urban. In rural areas
"SBM - Gramin" was financed and monitored through the Ministry
of Drinking Water and Sanitation; whereas "SBM - urban" was
overseen by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs
7. Accomplishment
According to the dashboards maintained by respective ministries, more than 100
million individual household level toilets have been constructed in rural areas, and 6
million household toilets in urban areas.
Further, more than 81.5 thousand wards in urban areas now have100% door to door
collection of solid waste and nearly 65 thousand wards practice 100% segregation of
waste at source.
World Health Organization (WHO) has in its report stated that at least 180,000
diarrheal deaths were averted in rural India since the launch of the Swachh Bharat
Mission.
Millions of students and youth took pledge for a clean country India.
8. Responsibility
The objectives of the first phase of the mission also
included eradication of manual scavenging,
generating awareness and bringing about a behavior
change regarding sanitation practices, and
augmentation of capacity at the local level.
The second phase of the mission aims to sustain the
open defecation free status and improve the
management of solid and liquid waste.
As part of the campaign, volunteers, known
as Swachhagrahis, or "Ambassadors of cleanliness",
promoted indoor plumbing and community
approaches to sanitation (CAS) at the village level
Citizens of India pledge to segregate my (household,
shop, establishment) waste in two dustbins, wet
waste in Green and dry waste in Blue, as a
contribution to the Swachh Bharat Mission.
9. Challenges
Environmental
• Uncontrolled
material flows
• Inefficient practices
of recycling
Social
• Lifestyles of waste
• Levels of awareness are
low especially in small
and medium towns
Economic
• Segmented markets for
recycling – informal and formal
• Business case of recycling and
EPR are still not established
E-waste Law 2012 has not
been an outright success
10. Opportunities
Environmental
• Resources embedded in e-
waste
• Pollution prevention
• Reduction in primary
mining
Social
• Lifestyles of health and
sustainability
• Mainstreaming of
marginalized populations
Economic
• Green Jobs
• Competitiveness of Industry
• Access to state of the art
technologies
• Improvements in resource
productivity
E-waste Management can
contribute to all three
pillars of sustainable
development
12. Europe
• European Union has a renewed focus on raw materials
• Circular Economy package launched in 2012 – currently being
reviewed
• Member states have developed their domestic strategies
• Germany – Raw Material Strategy (ProGress)
• UK – Making Waste work at home
• Focus on closing material loops as a part of Industrial Policy
• Innovation as an enabler of maintaining economic competitiveness

Cu, Pb, Ni, Sn,
Bi, Se, Te, Sb, As, In
recovered metal value (2008):
PM: 2600 M$, others 400 M$
•350,000 t/a of complex PM
bearing feed materials
•PM-output > 45 t/a
≈ 10% of world mine
production
•Global customer base
•Minimizing waste (< 5%)
•High environmental standards
•> 1 billion € investment

14. China
• Adopted a Circular Economy Law
in 2008
• Set up a high level Circular
Economy Institute under the
mandate of the NDRC in 2013
• Integral part of the global value
chain
• Infrastructure driven development
– however, severely constrained
due to the presence of the
informal sector
Brazil
• Adopted a Solid Waste National
Policy in 2014
• Shared responsibility model
with partnerships of OEMs,
Local government and retailers
• The social dimension of waste
management has been high on
policy makers agenda
• Innovative models involving the
informal sector
15. • 120 companies
• Recycling Capacity ≈ 1m - 1.5m tons of
waste
• Waste includes electronics, vehicles,
rubber and plastic
• Can supply
• 400,000 tons of copper p.a.
• 150,000 tons of aluminum,
among other materials
• “Engineering island", which brings
together energy savings and
environmental protection by
integrating sewage collection
treatment, water reuse and rain
collection. It is now reusing 100% of its
water, without harming the desert
environment.

17. Strategic Approach
Develop state-civic-
business alliances
E-waste needs cooperation across
board; alliances will drive
implementation of policies
Strengthening links between
SPCBs and ULBs
Infrastructure for waste management
would benefit from synergies –
cooperation between ULBs and SPCBs
is critical
Capacity Building of
Regulators
Significant investments
made already, training
modules available
Deepening Engagement of SPCBs with
OEMs and Formal Recyclers
Next generation “policy” processes where the
environmental regulator is the facilitator.
Hub and Spoke Model for
Infrastructure
Regional refineries, state-wide
material recovery facilities, city-wide
collection infrastructure
Debate and engage with
informality
Biggest challenge in emerging/
developing countries – India’s leadership
will prove game changing
18. Road Map for the Future
04

03 Appropriate Infrastructure
01 Strategy
• Raw Material and Secondary
Resource Strategy for India
• A technical advisory group that
informs policy processes cutting
across different secondary
resources
02 Knowledge-base
05 Cross Ministry Collaboration
• Inventories at national and state level
• Database of appropriate technologies
• Business models
• Acquisition of BAT through bilateral
cooperation and technology transfer
• Increased funds for R&D
• Technology appraisal mechanisms

• Skill India Initiative
20. Aims
o The aim of e-waste recycling providers is to help businesses and
organizations in getting rid of obsolete electronics and safeguard the
environment.
o The E-waste management market is experiencing exponential growth as more
and more businesses are hiring the electronic recycling providers that are
well-acquainted with efficient e-waste management techniques.
o Electronic recycling can help in saving unnecessary dumps and landfills,
furthermore reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and save natural resources.
o Giving away the old electronics is important in the provision of refurbished
products including mobile phones and computers.
21. Objectives
Construction of individual, cluster and community e-waste collection
centers.
To eliminate or reduce open disposal of e-waste.
Public awareness to be provided.
An accountable mechanism of e-waste management.
To keep India clean.
22. Significance of the Proposal
● Instead of recycling e-waste after buying it from other sources, we are
collecting, sorting and processing e-waste ourselves.
● We are segregating the collected waste at each step which helps
in reducing the pollution emitted during recycling.
● Our idea will allow people to earn from waste promoting the
concept of “Wealth from Waste”.

25. Application at societal level
Ninety-five percentage of the e-waste in India is being recycled at societal level and five
percentage of the e-waste volume are handled in formal unit.
In and around of metropolitan cities in India, there are over 3000 units engaged at societal level
for e-waste recycling.
Societal level units of e-waste recyclers are distributed all over India.
A large cluster of industries are in Delhi, Tamil Nadu, U.P., Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat,
Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, Rajasthan, etc.
Non-formal units generally follow the steps such as collection of the e-waste from the rag
pickers, disassembly of the products for their useable parts, components, modules, which are
having resell value.
The rest of the material is chemically treated to recover precious metals.

27. Conclusion
•At the end of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, we will have a mixture of plastic,
glass , metals and no-metals which would be impossible to recycle. We suggest
that we can use that mixture to make daily-use items like furniture and
decorative items.
•We must play the role of youth and by inculcating culture of self service and
cleanliness we can bring change.
•Swachh Bharat Abhiyan should be taken forward as a National Initiative
irrespective of it’s name and fame.
•Attitude towards cleanliness is changing but we must not forget we have miles
to go.
