Discus Systems PLC - IT Support Company in Birmingham West midlands
"Just a quick email to say how much I appreciate the support over the weekend .. the File Server was maxed out on CPU and as a result no one could log in... I had texted Support on Sunday, who (even though it was the weekend) got onto the server and resolved the issue. This will mean that staff will come in tomorrow and work as if nothing went wrong!"  Jeff Walker, Dains LLP - Lichfield

We will ensure that all legal responsibilities regarding the disposal of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) are satisfied, and in particular all requirements of The Environment Act's 'Duty of Care' regulations are met, the following processes will be applied:

 

Recycling Depollution: Prior to processing the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), hazardous materials/components are removed from the equipment and separately treated in accordance with Annex II of the WEEE Directive and in line with best practice guidance provided via BATRRT.

Recycling Shredding: A powerful four shaft rotary shredder, large enough to process almost any form of whole IT equipment, reduces assembled structures down to 40mm or 25mm fragments, and in the process, liberates metals, metal bearing materials and plastics. This high-capacity system is capable of processing up to 80 Tonnes of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) per day.

Recycling Separation: After shredding, the mixed fragments move through an automated separation process, passing through powerful overband and drum magnets which extract and collect ferrous metal fragments. The residual fragments then pass through an eddy current separator, splitting the plastic and non-ferrous materials into two further, well-defined streams.

Recycling Reprocessing: The resulting separated recyclate streams from the process are then passed directly to specialised reprocessors who will reconstitute the recyclate into re-usable raw material commodities in a closed loop recovery, a zero landfill process!
