Advait Green Recycling

E-Waste Recycling & Management

Recover the Metal. Spare the Mountain.

Every discarded laptop, server and handset holds recoverable gold, copper and rare earths. We extract them responsibly - so the earth doesn't have to be dug up again.

The Challenge

India's E-Waste Problem Needs a Formal Solution

India generates over 1.7 million tonnes of electronic waste annually, yet less than a third reaches a formal recycling channel. The rest ends up in landfills, informal dismantling yards, or acid-leaching operations that poison groundwater and soil.

Advait Green Recycling bridges that gap. As a GPCB-authorised recycler, we process end-of-life electronics through our mechanised facility at Mahesana, Gujarat - recovering valuable metals and materials while ensuring hazardous fractions never reach the environment.

Our processing line includes manual de-manufacturing bays, a primary shredder, magnetic and eddy-current separators, and density-based sorting systems. Recoverable metals - copper, aluminium, steel, gold, silver and palladium - are extracted and returned to the secondary raw material market.

Understanding E-Waste

01

The Problem

India generates over 1.7 million tonnes of e-waste annually, yet less than a third reaches formal recycling - the rest poisons communities and ecosystems through soil and groundwater contamination.

02

Global Reality

5–7 million tonnes of e-waste are generated globally each year. Developed nations often export electronic waste to countries like India, fuelling an informal recycling industry that endangers workers.

03

Indian Scenario

India's IT sector is growing at over 25% annually, driving rapid hardware obsolescence. Metro cities contribute 65% of total e-waste, yet formal recycling infrastructure remains limited.

04

The Opportunity

One tonne of circuit boards yields more gold than 17 tonnes of mined ore. Systematic recovery of metals, plastics and rare earths reduces mining pressure and returns value to industry.

05

For Organisations

Establish a formal e-waste policy. Partner with authorised recyclers like Advait Green for compliant disposal. Conduct regular audits and employee awareness programmes.

06

For Individuals

Follow Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Buy electronics based on need. Never hand devices to informal scrap dealers - use authorised recycling channels for safe, legal disposal.

What We Handle

Computers & Workstations

Computers & Workstations

Desktops, laptops, workstations and thin clients - including all internal components such as motherboards, RAM, processors, hard drives and power supplies. We handle individual units as well as bulk IT refresh disposals.

01 / 08
Servers & Networking

Servers & Networking

Rack-mount servers, blade servers, routers, switches, modems, PBX systems and telecom exchange equipment. From data centre decommissions to branch-office cleanouts, every piece is inventoried and processed.

02 / 08
UPS & Power Systems

UPS & Power Systems

Uninterruptible power supplies, voltage regulators, power distribution units and battery backup systems. Batteries are safely separated and channelled to authorised recyclers; electronics enter our shredding line.

03 / 08
Monitors & Peripherals

Monitors & Peripherals

CRT and flat-panel monitors, printers, scanners, copiers, projectors, keyboards, mice and other peripherals. CRT monitors receive special treatment due to leaded glass and phosphor coatings.

04 / 08
Cables & Connectors

Cables & Connectors

Power cables, data cables, wiring harness, connectors and cable assemblies. Copper and aluminium are recovered through mechanical stripping and granulation for return to the secondary metal market.

05 / 08
Circuit Boards (PCBs)

Circuit Boards (PCBs)

Populated and bare printed circuit boards from any source - computers, telecom, industrial controls, consumer electronics. PCBs contain the highest concentration of precious metals and are processed for gold, silver, palladium and copper recovery.

06 / 08
Consumer Electronics

Consumer Electronics

Televisions, audio systems, home appliances, smartphones, tablets and gaming consoles. Items are dismantled, hazardous components (batteries, capacitors, mercury lamps) are separated, and recyclable fractions enter the recovery stream.

07 / 08
Industrial Equipment

Industrial Equipment

PLC controllers, SCADA systems, sensors, relays, instrumentation panels and factory automation components. Industrial e-waste often contains specialised alloys and rare earth elements that we channel to authorised downstream processors.

How It Works

E-Waste Recycling Process

01

E-Waste

End-of-life electronics received from corporates, institutions and collection drives.

02

Collection

Sealed, GPS-tracked pickup in closed vehicles with manifest documentation.

03

To Plant

Gate-entry weighment, inspection and logging at our Mahesana facility.

04

Segregation

Manual dismantling into ferrous, non-ferrous, plastics, glass, PCBs and hazardous fractions.

05

Recovery

Shredding, magnetic and eddy-current separation to extract clean secondary raw materials.

Pickup & Transport

E-Waste Collection & Logistics

E-waste is collected from your premises in sealed, GPS-tracked vehicles under a valid transport manifest. Weighment is recorded at pickup and verified again at our facility gate - ensuring full accountability from the moment material leaves your hands.

We operate our own fleet of collection vehicles and maintain partnerships with authorised logistics providers to cover locations across Gujarat and beyond. Whether you're a corporate office disposing of 500 laptops or a household clearing out old electronics, we handle the logistics end to end.

Confidentiality

Data Security & Destruction

When electronic equipment is retired, the data it carries doesn't disappear with a factory reset. Hard drives, SSDs, tapes and mobile devices retain recoverable information that can expose organisations to data breaches, regulatory penalties and reputational damage.

Advait Green takes complete responsibility for destroying all embedded data. Every device is logged by serial number, and you receive a Certificate of Data Destruction listing each unit processed.
