E-waste recycling programs are designed to collect, process, and repurpose discarded electronics. These programs typically involve several steps:
Collection: E-waste is gathered from households, businesses, and drop-off points. Sorting: Items are sorted based on their type and condition. Disassembly: Devices are dismantled, and components are separated. Processing: Valuable materials like gold, silver, and copper are extracted for reuse. Disposal: Hazardous materials are safely disposed of following environmental regulations.
