ASA METAL directly exports the integrated circuits (electronic cards) it has acquired through tenders or purchases, to foreign markets. It first tries to bring, the electrical or electronic devices supervised and found by technical service to be operational, back into the economy through second hand markets over the internet. Thus it avoids creating more waste. E-waste is destroyed and sorted by expert staff, in line with the procedures of the waste regulations of Ministry of Environment. All integrated circuits are exported while remaining categories (metal, plastic, cables) are sold to licensed recycling companies to be used in domestic markets. Another category brought out by destruction of e-waste is the hazardous materials including batteries, accumulators, CRT monitors and oil filled cables. ASA METAL undertakes to report such materials it stores separately to the Ministry in accordance with regulations and to send them to disposal facilities in a controlled manner. |
