Do you know that 100% of our e-waste is recyclable? But, how much of it does reach the e-waste recycling companies in Dubai<\/strong><\/a>? The answer is only 15 to 20% of the waste goes through electronic scrap recycling. Rest of it is left to create massive landfills on earth.<\/p>\n The landfills on earth are increasing at alarming rates. To further worsen the situation, the electronic wastes will eventually release toxic substances into the atmosphere.<\/p>\n As mentioned earlier, electronic waste not only contaminates the soil but also seeps through the water. It is the biggest reason why we have polluted rivers and increasing drinking water crisis. The chemicals in this e-waste are dangerous to health and can lead to organ disorder and even death. Lead, mercury, cadmium and chromium are the toxic substances found in electronic waste. As responsible inhabitants on this earth, we must ensure not to leave any of this haywire. After usage, electronics should be handed to e-waste recycling companies for proper disposal.<\/p>\n Electronic equipment consists of multiple tiny components. There are also valuables metals like copper, gold, silver, palladium etc. in these electronics. Ironically one of the recent studies showed how the valuables, when extracted from all the discarded electronics, would form a deposit that is at least 40% richer than the ores mines on earth. Hence giving away the electronics to e-waste disposal companies in Dubai will yield to the economy than dumping them on the ground.<\/p>\n Most of the times, electronics need not be dismantled as there are only minor dysfunctionalities. In such cases, e-waste disposal companies handle them in two ways-<\/p>\n Many discarded electronics can be reused. These goods are sent to companies who repair the product and sell them again as refurbished products in the market. It is a way to help people avail the technology at cheap rates and also help in producing fewer products.<\/p>\n Sometimes the product cannot be reused as a whole, but many components are in a good state and can be used in other products. In such cases, the manufacturing companies reuse these components that help them save on the cost of production. It also helps the environment producing fewer of these components.<\/p>\n
