Electronic Waste Management | EPR Registration Consultant

Due to the alarming rate at which e-waste is rising, its disposal is becoming a major problem in India. Due to non-availability of proper methodologies of e-waste disposal and recycling, households generally keep on piling up the waste or at best sell them off to ragpickers or some pawn shops.

The less known fact is that more than twenty thousand workers are engaged in the manual dismantling of these electronic items due to the presence of valuable metals in them which people sell off to earn a living. However, the sad side of the story is that these kinds of manual work can be injurious to health and the thrown away parts of the electronics can cause major environmental problems in the long run.

Health impacts:

The electronic waste which is wrongfully disposed of comprises of articles which are mainly made up of harmful metals like lead, beryllium, and cadmium. Children are highly vulnerable to lead poisoning when these harmful metals undergo environmental contamination. These heavy metals combine with the sand, air, water and pollute them heavily. Studies have shown that the residents in the areas where the levels of contamination are high have reported having a high incidence of skin damage, headaches, nausea, gastritis, and duodenal ulcers.

With the rapid growth that the industrial sector is witnessing due to the advancement in technology, e-waste and plastic waste is expected to increase exponentially in the coming years. Keeping the best interests of the people in mind, the government has laid down rules and regulations to channelize the e-waste disposal and recycling.

Government regulations for e-waste management:

The environment protection act has laid down the “polluter pays principle”. According to this, it is mandatory for the companies responsible for the generation of e-waste to lay down mechanism for its disposal and management as well. This has led to the prevalence of EPR consultants.

EPR(extended producer responsibility) is the responsibility of every producer of electrical and electronic equipment for channelization of e-waste to an authorized dismantler to ensure environmentally sound management of such waste. The government has made it mandatory for producers including importers and e-retailers to obtain EPR authorization.

The producers are required to submit their EPR plan to obtain this authorization and this plan should lay down the take-back system of collective collection center which the company is setting up for the waste management. This e-waste exchange system has to be approved by CPCB to obtain the EPR authorization.
