With main components of phosphorus compounds, mercury vapor and inert gases, fluorescent lamps are recommended to be used and disposed of properly.
However, according to statistics from the General Department of Environment, up to now, there are only 24 enterprises nationwide equipped to handle discarded compact fluorescent bulbs, and the collection and treatment of discarded bulbs has achieved very low results.
As one of the leading enterprises in collecting and processing used compact fluorescent light bulbs, Dien Quang has organized collection points for old light bulbs for consumers at the company's stores and small private electrical retail outlets. On that basis, Dien Quang cooperates with facilities that have the function of processing and recycling hazardous waste, overcoming the negative impact on the environment.
