E-waste is a popular, informal name for electronic products
nearing the end of their "useful life." Computers,
monitors, televisions, VCRs, stereos, copiers, and fax machines
are common electronic products. Many of these products can
be reused, refurbished, or recycled. Unfortunately, electronic
discards is one of the fastest growing segments of our nation's
waste stream.
Each year in Malaysia tens of thousands of electronic items
become "obsolete" in the eyes of consumers. Rapid
advances in technology and an expanding demand for new features
accelerate the generation of "old" electronic
equipment ("e-waste"). The result is a growing
challenge for businesses, residents, and local governments
as they search for ways to reuse, recycle, or properly dispose
of this equipment.
Many components of electronic equipment--including metals,
plastic, and glass--can be reused or recycled, while others
may present environmental hazards if not managed correctly.
Various scraps from electric and electronic items contain
high quality minerals such as gold, silver, copper, nickel
and other non-ferrous metals. The recyclable products include
scrap semiconductors, scrap printed circuit boards and other
parts of the electric and electronic scrap.
All items received by JMI are recycled in an ethical and
environmentally friendly manner. The processes include cutting,
crushing, milling, separating, smelting and refining. All
the materials we recycle are put back into use by firms
in the local, as well as global markets.
