E-waste collection and transport
Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) is recycled more and more and due to present legislation the amount of unusable e-waste is decreasing.
E-waste includes:
- non-ferrous and precious metals,
- alloys,
- glass,
- ceramics,
- organic polymers with toxic content,
- other substances like stabilizers, fillers and pigments.
According to European legislation producers are obliged to ensure the collection of individual types of e-waste from customers.
The collection applies to all types of household e-waste. Similarly, e-waste is collected from legal and natural persons. Electrical and electronic equipment becomes waste after its delivery to a processor.
E-waste types:
- Type 1- Major appliances (refrigerators, washing machines, dryers etc.)
- Type 2 – Small appliances (vacuum cleaners, irons, blenders, fryers etc.)
- Type 3 – Computer and telecommunication appliances (laptops, PCs, telephones, mobile phones etc.)
- Type 4 – Consumer electronics (video and audio equipment, musical instruments)
- Type 5 – Lighting devices (incandescent light bulbs, fluorescent tubes, gas-discharge lamps etc.)
- Type 6 – Electrical and electronic tools (drills, saws, gardening devices etc.)
- Type 7 – Toys, leisure (electronic toys, models, sports equipment)
- Type 8 – Medical devices (all medical equipment with the exception of implants)
- Type 9 – Monitoring devices (detectors, thermostats, laboratory equipment etc.)
- Type. 10 – Vending machines
