In this video, we talk to Nandan Mal, the founder and CEO of Huladek Recycling, India’s leading e-waste management company. Nandan shares his story of starting Huladek Recycling in 2015, when he was just 24 years old, after winning a college contest and interning at an e-waste treatment company. He explains how Huladek Recycling collects, segregates, and channels e-waste from various sources, such as homes, offices, hotels, hospitals, and industries, to authorized recycling facilities. He also reveals how Huladek Recycling works with scrappers and solo recyclers, who are informal waste collectors and scavengers, to recover precious metals like gold, silver, and copper from electronic waste. He discusses the environmental impact, economic impact, and safety measures of e-waste recycling, and how Huladek Recycling is contributing to the global e-waste trade, waste management, and recycling rates. He also talks about the challenges and opportunities of operating in a fragmented and unregulated market. He also gives us a glimpse of the heavy-duty equipment, shaker tables, and metal recovery process that are involved in e-waste recycling. He also mentions the role of BAN (Basel Action Network), an international organization that monitors the e-waste trade in India and other countries.
