Recycling is everywhere and ever more important. The focus is often on recycling more household
waste, such as cans and paper. Doing that to prevent harm in our ocean is also rightly, more
prevalent. However, we also generate huge amounts of E-waste every day. The problem has grown
along with the growth in popularity of mobile phones and other devices that we regularly replace.
Given increasing awareness of environmental concerns, the importance of recycling E-waste is more
prominent than ever before
So, if these devices are incorrectly disposed of then these chemicals can cause harm to the
environment. They can find their way into the air, the soil and even water sources. In turn, this
contributes to a detrimental impact on humans, animals and plants.
Battery Recycling in Nigeria
Lead battery is in high demand in Nigeria, most lead batteries are used to store solar and wind
power, and are in demand for backup power for computers, cell phone towers, and home use.
It is important to recycle these batteries because their illegal disposal pose damages to human
health. Batteries contains leads and mercury that are poisonous to health which can cause high
blood pressure, kidney damage and abdominal pain in adults, and serious developmental delays
and behavioral problems in young children because it interferes with neurological development.
Do you Know that Proper disposal and recycling of batteries helps to conserve our Natural
resources? It reduce the need to collect new raw materials thus prevent pollution.
Greenhouse gas emission that contribute to global climate change can be reduced, as there will be
less landfills.
Keeping such batteries are too toxic to groundwater and it contaminates the soil. In some aquatic
areas like Lagos and Ogun state that have some firms that recycle batteries but no standard
regulation on their operation, battery chemicals that are disposed around such areas or touches
water can bio-accumulate in fish, this does not only kill the fishes but make them unfit/toxic for
consumption. The communities living around such firms are also affected.
Do you know also that some e-waste are being exported Illegally from European into African
countries like, Ghana, Tunisia, Nigeria, Cameroon, Kenya, Mozambique and Tanzania because of
the dangers of the landfills and storage to the environment and climate? Most of the second hand
products we use and purchase are made available due to recycling and with the growing rate of
purchasing new mobile phones, we are posed to danger on how to recycle them. When this phones
are recycled then make raw gold than mining and searching for new minerals
Devoid the developing new trends; cars, phones etc. The need to use some of our old electronics to
their proper lifespan is encouraged to prevent excess of waste, landfill and harm in the
environment and health. Therefore, it is necessary to be enlightened about battery recycling and
the importance of making the right choices towards recycling and reusing them.
Do you know of any firm, individual or institution that is in need of these reusable batteries and
permanent energy generators for cars, inverters, home use and cell phone towers? Euglobe
solutions limited is specialized in supplying of these batteries and generators for them, giving the
best global regulation standards of operations too.
If you are a firm, individual and institution that have available old or new batteries and permanent
generators in quantifiable units, Euglobe Solutions Limited is best at procuring them and making the
necessary safety use and recycling of the equipment for a safe and healthy environment.
Together we attain a safe healthy environment and benefit with recycling.
Black Plastic is a key aspect of E-Waste toxicity. We’ll all recognise that many of our electronic
devices are black in colour and made of black plastic. Today, black plastics make up around 15%
of material recycled in the UK.
What is Telecommunication Equipment Recycling?
When a company decides to upgrade to a newer telecommunications system, the old system should be
removed by a professional electronics recycling company who will deal with the disposal of the equipment.
Telecommunications recycling involves first attempting to reuse and refurbish any equipment that is still
in good working order. Equipment that cannot be reused or refurbished is typically separated so that
any working components can be identified and repurposed. The remaining materials will then be broken
down to be recycled with an aim of being reused in the manufacturing of other products.
Benefits of Telecommunication Equipment Recycling
There are several benefits to both the environment and the community of recycling your telecommunication
equipment, such as:

Valuable materials are recovered from old electronics and used to make new products, which saves energy, reduces
pollution, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and saves resources by extracting fewer raw materials from the earth.

Recycling Telecommunication Equipment saves landfill space.

It protects your surroundings by reducing the chance of toxic chemicals such as lead and mercury seeping into the
environment.

It benefits the community by passing on ready-to-use or refurbished equipment to those who need it

It creates jobs for recyclers and refurbishers, as well as creating new markets for the valuable components that are
dismantled.
