Kitar semula
At MIDONKEY, it is important to us and to our community to take responsibility for properly recycling all electronic waste, batteries and packaging that come with our products. Such items should not be disposed of in regular trash bins. This page will help you find locations and options for recycling.
Mengapa Kitar Semula?
Unwanted electrical equipment is a very fast growing waste stream. Many electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural resources and the environment. If you do not recycle – electrical equipment will end up more easily in landfills where hazardous substances will leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming wildlife and also human health.
If you have received any new items of this sort from a repair exchange or when an item broke, it is important that you recycle it properly and that you do not dispose of it in your normal household waste. We’re counting on you to lead the example!
Apa yang Anda Boleh Kitar Semula?
You can recycle essentially everything, but below are the main parts.
Bateri
It is important that you recycle batteries properly and that you do not dispose of them in your normal household waste.
——
Each round of full discharge and then full recharge is called battery life-cycle. A battery's life-cycle can range from 500 to 1200 before it reaches 70% of its original capacity. That means a life-cycle of 2-5 years for a typical battery depending on how often you use your bike. Your battery could still go a further 700-1000 cycles till it reaches the end of its life. When the battery’s life has come to an end, it doesn’t mean it cannot be used anymore. Cells can be refurbished, and repurposed for home energy storage and other innovative tech. A battery recycling partner will take apart each battery, recycling the plastics, circuit board, and cells. To recycle batteries, please refer to Call2Recycle.org.
E-Waste atau Sisa Peralatan Elektrik dan Elektronik (WEEE)
E-waste is a popular, informal name for electronic products nearing the end of their "useful life." Many of these products can be reused, refurbished, or recycled.

Tires and tubes may not always be disposed of with household waste.
——
Tires are often made of natural rubber and can be re-used for all sorts of new products. Find out from your dealer whether they will take over the collection and disposal or hand them in at a recycling center or a collection point in your municipality or city administration. In California for example, it is mandatory to properly dispose of tires.
Di mana untuk mengitar semula e-waste?
One of the easiest first steps is to do an online search for “electronic recycling near me” to see which facilities are available. Always make sure you check that the company will accept the type of e-waste you are looking to get rid of by calling ahead. Please note that battery recycling is different, but some of these centers may be able to take your battery.
US Laws on E-Waste Recycling
“Twenty-five U.S. states currently have electronics recycling laws. The National Center for Electronics Recycling (NCER) developed peta interaktif that helps to find out detailed information on state regulations, including a brief summary and link to the laws as well as key dates. Visit NCER’s website to find out more about undang-undang elektronik negeri.” – Quote pulled from epa.gov
