Some thoughts on E-Waste Management in India
Waste , Electronic, Electrical and Technical devices need to be recycled properly, otherwise toxins are released into the soil, water, air and human tissue which raises the concentration of lead and other harmful compounds. Managing E-Waste in a eco-friendly way is a huge task considering the generation is as high as 40% of the new arrivals together with the accumulated lot and also expensive as the equipment for waste treatment plant, collection cost of E-waste, repairing and maintenance is costly. The primary step in reducing E-Waste is reducing E-consumption per se which is out of the race for the present day. Rapid product development and forced obsolescence are two key factors and this is encouraged by unbridled consumption of today. In 2023, the consumer electronics industry is expected to generate $75.77 bn in revenue with telephones occupying a share of 58% at $ 44.34 bn. And the craze for annual model change happens in phones. Globally, 53.6 MMT of electronic trash were produced in 2019 and the figure is expected to reach 74MMT by 2030, according to the Global E-Waste Monitor Report. India is he 3rd largest E-waste generator after China and the USA with 3.3 MMT E-Waste generation annually. India also faces the problem of importation/dumping from rich and industrialised countries. In India, E-Waste is covered by a number of environmental laws and rules, but penalties for non-compliance are insufficient and difficult to enforce which enhances the problem. The legislation in India dealing with E Waste is basically preventive and procedural in nature which does not provide any punitive measures for the manufacturer, importer, distributor and user of electronic device , as a result the violator continues to do so. This again is loaded further by electrical waste on all fronts.
In such a situation, we may recommend the following:
(a) Policy level interventions like creation of E-waste Regulation, Control of their Import and developing a process for item wise disposal/recycling. Ideally the process for disposal/recycling may be aligned to an institutional structure.
(b) Developing environmentally sound engineering methods for recycling , recovery and disposal with quality standards at each step.
(c) Align FDI and Private Investment in Solid Waste Management to E-Waste Management.
(d) Stringent monetary punishment for non-compliance with rewards for highlighting non-compliance.
