Almost any electronic and electrical equipment there are certain harmful substances: heavy metals (mercury, arsenic, cadmium, chromium), persistent organic pollutants and compounds. For example, a CRT television can contain up to 2kg of lead, and in older refrigerators and air conditioners as the refrigerant was previously used freon, which before disassembly it is necessary to pump out as escaping from a closed system, it gets into the atmosphere and contribute to destruction of the ozone layer.
Everything that plugs into the wall socket requires disassembly and sorting, followed by sending to the disposal of hazardous components, as well as a selection of secondary material resources that are involved in further production (plastic, glass, rubber, ferrous, non-ferrous and precious metals (the last shall be deposited in the state Fund of the Republic of Belarus).
