CFL Disposal

[rakeshsehrawat]

CFL once thought to be a energy saver with bright white light is now known as cause to many medical problems

Migraines, sleeping problems, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, skin problems blistering and breast cancer are some problems caused by CFL

After i came to know that CFLs are enviornment hazzardous i am keeping all fuse lights but does anyone knows what to do with that and where to dispose it?

Some suggestions are available in the following web-links. But in Indian context these may be useless as we do not have a proper waste management system. Collect these and throwing in buring fire of "holi" !!

I called ther delhi office which was busy so i tried noida number which is not in service
i again called delhi office a lady pickedup the phone and asked her colleagues then replied please call our bangalore office and talk to abhishek pratap on 080-42821010
i called bangalore number and found our guy on leave so they asked me to call tommorrow.
My question " Is there no one else who can tell how can i dispose CFLs " she gave me one mobile number of Mr. Manish and he is mailing me some content hope that must be somewhat useful

Dear Rakesh.

I like your efforts. But my dear friend ,I donot thinks so in our countary these type facilities are availables or not. If availables then some NGO are simply making thier money. They are not so much concerned about disposal of used CFL, Battery, computers etc.

I also stored some CFL, old radio, battries . Kindly update to me when you get proper place of diposal.

Regards

Chandan.

Dear I have heard that CFLs can be repaired by just changing their hoods and can again be used. One of my friend told me.So do a lttle research.

Dear Rakesh, Have you tried giving your fused CFL bulbs to the shop from where you purchased it? The shopkeepers usually have a deal with the CFL companies to exchange fused bulbs with new ones. You may/maynot get a new bulb but you can certainly try giving the fused bulb back to the CFL company.

Urmila.

I have successfully returned fused CFL to shopkeepers in Gurgaon. Perhaps request them for the sake of environment I think it will work.

I have read somewhere few days back that there is some experiment going in some villages near panipat with LED bulbs. May this succeed to save mercury being added to the waste stream.

Jitender Sir LEB bulbs are a success but their cost is quite high as compared to CFL. Experiments are going on to reduce that cost.

Solar Lamps mein bhi CFL lagti hai.

LED lights sabse badhiya rahengi.

Waise mera sawal ye nahi ki mein kya istemal karunga mera sawal ye hai ki jo cheej market mein dhaddale se bik rahi hai uske waste ko uthane wala koi nahi lakho croro kamane wale ye nahi sochte ki unka jehar duniya ko tabah kar raha hai.
