Abstract

A variety of products having electric and electronic components are referred to as "e-waste." E-waste is a word used to describe outdated electrical and electronic equipment. Examples include computers, televisions, mobile phones, printers, and white electronic gadgets like refrigerators. Several toxic or harmful materials are known to be present in e-waste, and if they are released during processing, recycling, or disposal, they pose a serious threat to the environment and public health. The mechanisms in place for managing and collecting e-waste, as well as the processes and activities involved in collection, treatment, and disposal, are examined in this proposed research project.
