whyneed

In today's world, electronic and electrical devices are an integral part of everyday life. From mobile phones to household appliances, these technologies are greatly improving the quality of our lives. However, with the development of technology, the problem of waste associated with these devices is also increasing. The issue of hazardous waste containing harmful components such as lead, mercury, cadmium and other toxic substances is particularly acute.

Waste electrical and electronic equipment, other than those specified under codes 20 01 21 and 20 01 23, includes a wide range of devices that do not fall under standard recycling categories. These can be old computers, TVs, monitors, refrigerators, microwave ovens and other household appliances. The main problem is that many of these devices contain dangerous components that can harm the environment and human health.

Methods of ecological management of hazardous waste of electrical and electronic equipment, other than those specified under codes 20 01 21 and 20 01 23, are extremely important to reduce the negative impact on nature. Without proper management, this waste can end up in landfills, where toxic substances can leach into soil and water, causing serious environmental problems.

A pity for the environment and people

howutilize

Hazardous components in electrical and electronic equipment can have a serious impact on the environment. When such waste ends up in landfills, it can decompose and release toxic substances into the soil and groundwater. This leads to water pollution, which can have long-term consequences for ecosystems and human health.

The most dangerous substances contained in such waste:

  • lead: can cause damage to the nervous system and kidneys;
  • mercury: is very toxic and can cause serious problems with the nervous system;
  • cadmium: accumulates in the body and can cause kidney and bone damage.

Environmental management of hazardous waste electrical and electronic equipment other than those specified under codes 20 01 21 and 20 01 23 is critical to prevent these harmful effects. Application of appropriate methods and technologies can significantly reduce environmental risks.

 

Pity for people

Toxic substances contained in e-waste can have serious consequences for human health. They can enter the body through the respiratory tract, skin or food and water contaminated with toxic substances. This can lead to various diseases, including cancer, nervous system dysfunction, heart disease, and other serious health problems.

Dangerous components such as lead, mercury and cadmium can have various harmful effects on the human body:

  • lead: causes neurotoxic effects that can lead to impaired mental abilities and behavioral problems;
  • mercury: accumulates in the body and can cause serious neurological disorders, including tremors, irritability and other problems;
  • cadmium: can cause chronic kidney disease and bone damage.

The management of hazardous waste electrical and electronic equipment other than those specified under codes 20 01 21 and 20 01 23 containing hazardous components is important to ensure public safety. Reducing the impact of these substances on human health requires the use of appropriate measures and technologies.
