Welcome to a laptop battery specialist of the Compaq Ac Adapter

Q -The project must be founded on some form of technology transfer—from where is the technology and expertise for the waste management being sourced—has it involved immense training and who shall manage the technology in the country and region?

As part of its commitment to Extended Producer Responsibility, in 2007 HP began developing a programmatic strategy and action plan to address the e-waste problem in Africa. Broadly, HP's involvement in the 'e-waste' in Africa program is structured around three main lines of activity.

Conducting research and feasibility studies to assess current e-waste practices and policies in African countries.Facilitating education and training for informal sector workers and others in the African waste management supply chain with battery such as Compaq OmniBook XE3 Ac Adapter, Compaq PG803EA Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario 1700 Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario 1800 Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario 2100CA Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario 2500 Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario 2700 Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario 700 Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario DK558A Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario V5000 Ac Adapter, Compaq Presario X1000 Ac Adapter, Compaq Prosignia 190 Ac Adapter. Providing technical and financial support on a variety of waste treatment and recycling projects on an ongoing basis.

Q -HP Kenya Ltd CEO has in the past indicated that the plant shall deal with waste from all ICT and E institutions in the country—how shall HP Kenya meet costs of running the programme on behalf of others and how shall the company benefit?

E-waste is a resource and can be managed properly as a self/sufficient business. HP can't disclose investment figures, but we can say that HP provided initial seed-funding and logistical support in addition to business and management expertise as well ongoing recycling and environmental counsel to support the EACR facility.

It will take time to generate the appropriate levels of awareness, participation and recycling volumes to make the facility self-sufficient from a financial perspective. The professional recycling expertise of Reclaimed Appliances will help the EACR achieve its objectives.

Q -Please expound more on the possibilities of HP Kenya partnering more with other private sectors companies and government(s) (in PPPs) in taking this project to even more advanced dimensions in caring for the environment as ICT and mobile connectivity become more of the in- thing in the country and region.

HP and Reclaimed Appliances are excited about the potential of the EACR centre to drive leadership in e-waste recycling for Kenya, positioning the country as a hub for the management of e-waste in the broader East Africa region.
