E waste separation

HOUSING THE NATION FROM THEIR OWN WASTE

Long description

Eelectronic waste is a global problem that continues to grow as technology advances. All the elements that go into mobile phones, computers and TVs can be polluting to the environment and dangerous to human health if incorrectly disposed of. And that’s exactly what happens in parts of the developing world, where the poor take apart your phone with little protection, exposing themselves to mercury, lead, cadmium and other dangerous metals so that they can get to the gold, copper and other valuable materials within. So-called e-waste is the fastest growing part of the solid waste stream, and some 20 to 50 million metric tons of it are thrown out every year.

Fortunately, we have found a new way of  reusing the waste to make building materials to house people from their own waste i.e. plastics mixed with crushed glass coming from the waste is crushed and melted to make bricks, metals are also used to make metal bars for building iron sheets and steel bars for building, precious metals got from it can be sold to put water in people houses
