There is a huge need of sustainable development for the welfare of the environment. The growing industries have caused the growth of waste materials, which has a direct effect on earth's decomposing capacity. Simply reducing the waste materials can be the best solution. Therefore printer cartridge recycling has become a major concern. The recycling of the printing cartridges can easily be done. The recycled cartridges are found to have more positive impacts.

There is a very genuine reason why you should concentrate on recycling cartridges? It's a fact that every second person has a computer at home, and among them every third person uses a printer. Now if a person uses three to four cartridges in a year then imagine the number of cartridges that fall out as waste materials. If the cartridge recycling is done, we get a two way profit from it. First, the recycled cartridges can again be used and they work as same as a new cartridge. Second, it reduces the cost of producing new cartridges, hence save lots of money too.

Waste material disposal is a matter of concern for everyone. One of the most traditional methods used to dispose the waste is dumping. Dumping simply means collecting all the waste materials in a big pit made in the ground. Though dumping is an effective method, it is also a cause of lot of pollution too. The substance in the pit is found to emit greenhouse gases, cause water pollution and also cause diseases. Recycling printer cartridges reduces some of the waste materials and prevents landfilling of the wastes.

It also has some economic effects. A completely new toner cartridge is prepared by using several industrial polymers, which also include carbon as a major part. The process of preparation also involves oil, a small amount of heat sensitive plastic and also aluminium is used. The materials are very expensive and therefore it is considered to be an economic harm when they are thrown in the landfill sites after use.

Decomposition is a natural process of the environment, it is a very slow process and the amount of waste materials adds extra pressure on it. Recycling the printer cartridges also helps decomposition. The constituents of cartridges are plastics that are prepared by combining several industrial polymers; the polymers are held strongly by the carbon atoms. This prevents them from being converted into small particles for decomposition.

Like the decomposition of other plastic materials even the printing cartridges take a long time. Other than just the cartridge, the ink left in the cartridge is also very harmful. The left out ink may seep into the underground table and pollute it. Therefore recycling cartridges is necessary as it reduces the need for decomposition also prevents its side effects. Other than the cartridges recycled are used again and again.

Used cartridges are one of the major causes of the pollution. Recycling cartridges also prevent land, water and air pollution. Excluding the cartridges form the waste materials prevents a lot of health and environmental hazards.

Trees help us for oxygen supply and reducing the cutting down of trees will help us to have more air to breathe. Therefore, recycling plays a very integral part in protecting the environment and recycling cartridges is a major step toward sustainable development.
