Computer Disposal Bracknell
Information technology develops at such a rapid pace that electronic equipment very soon becomes obsolete. Computer disposal is a time-bomb waiting to go off. Various components of your old computer are highly toxic to the environment and it is estimated by the group, Local Self-Reliance, that about 75%% of obsolete electronic equipment is currently being stored. The day everyone decides to dispose of this clutter will be a black day for the environment.
Circuit boards, batteries, and color cathode ray tubes contain hazardous materials such as chromium, mercury and lead. If simply dumped, these toxins can be released into the environment - into the ground and water through landfills, or in the form of toxic incinerated ash.
What should you do with your obsolete computer? Don't trash it - there are many voluntary and non-profit making organisations dedicated to recycling your computer hardware, and you will not only be helping the environment, but may even be enhancing someone's quality of life immeasurably. Ink cartridges can be re-used, speakers, etc. switched to a new computer.
Creative Recycling is just one of many organisations offering a comprehensive recycling treatment with the use of new technologies to enhance and complement the usual shredding and pulverising, which takes place in a controlled atmosphere enclosure with negative air pressure and extremely efficient dust filters. The system outputs glass, plastic and various metals. They have invested millions of dollars in equipment and aim to offer cost-effective solutions for governmental organisations.
Europe has been passing legislation on recycling, though few people have actually noticed the fact. About five years ago, the Waste Electronic and electrical Equipment Directive was drafted, which forces the computer industry to pay for the safe recycling of redundant equipment.
Luckily new technology has given birth to Computer Recycling Companies, and has given them the ability to recycle computers in order to save the environment from harmful waste from old computers
