6.4 Waste management
International concern on environmental pollution, due to improper disposal of products and
materials after use, has increased the legislation control on the methods and procedures of
waste management for electric and electronical devices. Although in some countries the
regulations have increased to the point that they are part of the official laws, in other regions
this process is still ongoing. The result is a tighter control over product waste disposal and
over recycling components once they are out of use. Check WEE Directive (waste of
electrical and electronical equipment) 2002/96/EC for more information.
Regulations on instrument and accessory disposal may change according to where you are,
so TECIL suggests the following guidelines to help determine the available options when
taking the decision to replace or discard items:
• Contact TECIL or any authorized representative to gather information on the national and
local regulations about product disposal and recycling in your area. In some cases, the
provider may be legally obliged to take the product back and arrange for its correct disposal.
Alternatively, the provider should be able to give specific instructions regarding correct
product disposal.
• Contact your local government department responsable for waste collection and disposal.
They can help you determine the current procedures and restrictions which apply, in order to
ensure proper disposal. They can also inform you of suitable places to dispose of items .
