How Ecobraz is digitizing electronics recycling

The digitalization of electronics recycling plays a fundamental role in the Brazilian regulatory and operational context. Ecobraz stands out by integrating advanced technology into the processes of collection, treatment and safe disposal of electronic equipment, in line with current legislation, such as Law No. 12.305/2010 establishing the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS).

Legal Context for Electronics Recycling in Brazil

The proper handling of electronics disposal and recycling is regulated by Law No. 12.305/2010 (PNRS), which establishes guidelines for shared responsibility in the life cycle of electrical and electronic products, according to Planalto.gov.br. The standard reinforces the need for efficient systems to avoid improper disposal and the environmental impact of toxic substances present in electronic components.

Technological Processes Applied by Ecobraz

Based on digital technologies, Ecobraz implements solutions for tracking and monitoring the collection and disposal of electronic waste, ensuring compliance with the National Solid Waste Management Information System (SINIR), accessible via Sinir.gov.br. This approach promotes transparency and efficiency in the reverse chain.

In addition, it offers a specialized service for the collection of electronic waste through online platforms for scheduling, making it easier for companies and public bodies, as well as the general public.

Safe Data Sanitization in Media and Equipment

To guarantee information security, digitization encompasses rigorous processes for the safe disposal of hard drives and electronic media. Ecobraz adopts certified technical procedures, in line with the recommendations of the National Institute of Information Technology (ITI) and international best practices described in NIST SP 800-88, available at nvlpubs.nist.gov, which guide the definitive elimination of sensitive data, minimizing the risk of leakage and ensuring legal compliance.

Environmental and Social Impacts

The use of digital platforms in electronics recycling management not only reduces operating costs, but also allows for greater control over the waste treated, minimizing environmental liabilities. Digitalization contributes to meeting the environmental targets of the PNRS, reinforcing corporate sustainability and socially responsible practices, according to data from CETESB cetesb.sp.gov.br.

Conclusion

The digitalization of electronics recycling promoted by Ecobraz represents significant progress in environmental management and information security in Brazil. With procedures aligned with national regulations and international standards, the technology applied optimizes processes and promotes sustainability in the electronics waste chain.
