- Refurbishment
To refurbish electronic equipment implies updating, repairing or replacing some parts in order to give the equipment a longer life or make it function again. The reduction of the quantity of e-waste; the generation of employment and sources of income; the possibility of getting electronic equipment at lower prices, among other advantages, demonstrate that electronic refurbishment is an activity that has a series of positive environmental, social, and economic impacts for human beings and the environment.
Electronic equipment refurbishing entails a high added value process since it enables equipment to work for the same purpose as it was manufactured originally.
This process can be carried out in several ways with different goals in mind. For example, there are companies that do refurbishing only as a service, while others are capable to gather, diagnose, repair and pack electronic equipment for its resale.
- Repairs
Computers generally have a hardware life span of at least 7-10 years, but a useful life of only 3-4 years. The main reason for this is software & hardware upgrades.
As new software and hardware is introduced, people find they need more powerful computers to take the full benefit out of it. One way to extend the life of your computer is to upgrade your software and hardware as on needed basis. Another good thing to do is to buy computers that are upgradeable, with plenty of room to add expansion cards, storage capacity, memory etc. Very low-cost desktop computers have almost no expandability. It’s also useful to develop some software troubleshooting skills or find a good repair person. When computers are slow and freezing with those “Blue screens of death” it’s most often a software problem clogging things up. When your computer is running well, you’re more likely to keep it.
We, at A-Z GREEN TECHNOLOGY INC CANADA., make every possible effort to reuse the old components and bring old equipment up to the speed to meet today’s dynamic applications and rich content.
- ReUse
Manufacturing new products drains our natural resources, and disposing of unwanted materials pollutes our environment, our communities face difficulties getting the affordable goods they need. One way to prevent waste and improve our communities is to take useful computers discarded by those who no longer want or need them and provide them to those who do.
Every community has some existing form of reuse and, every community needs more reuse now.
Reusing a computer means that it continues to be valuable, useful, &aproductive equipment. Businesses can save significant dollars in disposal by reselling or donating computers that are no longer needed. In addition to making a positive contribution to the reduction of computer waste, many reuse programs in a community are operated as a means of providing items to low-income or disadvantage people. Donating your old computers can also help non-profit organizations and schools with needed computers supporting the community in which you live.
- Recycling
Recycling is an activity or process that enables the reutilization of different materials or parts of an item that has been disposed or does not fulfill the functions for which it was manufactured, in this way allowing the residuals to enter once more into the production process, to become again raw materials with added value.
Among the group of municipal waste, electronic waste is the one which has experienced the greatest growth (approximately three times more than the rest), and thus its management has become a top priority for the countries which produce it in large quantities.
Recycling implies:
• The recovery of non-renewable natural resources and valuable precious metals.
• The reduction of large volume residuals, which are often buried or disposed of in the environment.
• Energy and fuel savings to process the materials
• Less contamination and natural resources usage in the extraction and production of raw materials.
Without question, e-waste recycling is a sustainable activity that helps reduce the amount of residuals produced by human beings and helps reenter these into the productive chain of manufacturing new products. A-Z GREEN TECHNOLOGY INC CANADA considers recycling as the last phase of e-waste management, the first ones being the reduction of e-waste generation by a sustainable purchase of electronic equipment, to prolong their life, and its reutilization whenever it is possible.
