Establishing E-Waste Channels to Enhance Environment Friendly Recycling (WEEE-Recycle)

In a nutshell

 

The project aims at improving the situation of e-waste management in India in 4 large urban conglomerations, namely Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata and Pune. This would involve the producers and the recyclers (both the informal and formal recyclers) encompassing the small and medium scale

enterprises (SMEs) and all persons involved in the value chain. The process will also create linkages between them enabling smooth flow of e-waste and facilitate end-to-end recycling in an environmentally sound manner.
