The BMC Education Department, in collaboration with Electrofine Recycling Pvt. Ltd., is hosting an E-Waste Management Exhibition on Friday, 19 September, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm at N. M. Joshi School, Curry Road, Mumbai.
The exhibition will feature innovative student projects on e-waste reuse, recycling and responsible disposal. Over the past four months, BMC and its partner have collected and recycled 15,000 kg of electronic waste across the city.
Students from municipal schools will present projects, models and initiatives aimed at promoting environmentally sustainable practices. The hands-on learning experience is intended to inspire citizens to adopt responsible habits while educating participants on the environmental impact of e-waste.
Since June, Electrofine Recycling, BMC’s official e-waste partner, has been collecting and safely disposing of items such as mobile phones, chargers, laptops, tablets, televisions, refrigerators, earphones and modems. E-waste is collected from residential societies, schools, corporates, government offices, small businesses and other establishments. Registered entities receive scheduled pickups and a nominal payment based on the e-waste category.
