Project Description
Greenstretch Consultants Limited intends to establish and operate an electronic and electrical waste (e-waste) recovery, collection, storage, and safe dismantling facility. The proposed project shall be operated in a leased warehouse which measures approximately 15 x 18 meters in size. The facility warehouse shall consist of different segments namely; the receiving, loading, storage, dismantling, and weighing station, including shredding, sorting and baling sections. The facility will be a strategic location for the reception, storage and dismantling of e-waste materials generated in Livingstone and surrounding districts.

One of the key element of the proposed project is the collection of e-waste from the waste streams. To collect adequate quantities of e-waste from various points, GCL shall set up five (5) well-branded collection centers (shipping containers) at designated points. These points or centers will be used as drop off or buying locations for e-waste scrap. An incentive shall be paid in exchange for e-waste delivered to the facility or any of the collection centers. Donations of e-waste items as a way of safely disposing them of shall be accepted and encouraged.

The proposed project will mainly collect e-waste for the purpose of recovering reusable, useful, and valuable e-waste components for resell to potential buyers. It is planned that recovered e-waste components (e.g., Printed Circuit Boards) that cannot be processed locally shall be shipped abroad to advanced e-waste material recovery facilities e.g., to NamiGreen of Namibia, alternatively to AST Recycling Company of South Africa for further processing into finished products.
