E waste management ppt
1. WHAT IS E-WASTE..?
Electronic waste describes discarded electrical or
electronic devices . Used electronics which are destinated
for refurbishment .recycling through material recovery or
disposal are also considered as e-waste.
2. EXAMPLES OF E-WASTE..
E-waste is obtained fromTV’s, computers,
mobiles ,circuits chips,DVD,CD’S,MP3 players
etc…
And also in kitchen equipment like
toasters,coffee makers, microwave ovens etc…,
Broken computer monitors ,Television tubes
mostly in CRT(cathode ray tubes).
Any laboratory equipment that has the
possibility of being contaminated with chemical
biological or radio active substances must be
cleared through EH&S development facilities
office before disposal..

4. WHY E-WASTE MANAGEMENT IS
IMPORTANT..
Here are some reasons why e-waste
management is so important .
THERE’S MORE E-WASTETHEN EVER:
According to the university of Columbia earth
institute block 49 billion tons of e-waste in
2016,and that number is on track to grow to 60
billion tons by 2021.
By managing our e-waste properly ,we can
reduce the amount of hazardous electronics
waste we send to land fills.Therefore, we can
reduce the amount of pollution that we release
into the environment.
5. Unfortunately ,many electronic devices go straight
into the garbage after we’re done using them.Infact
according to the EPA, only 12.5% of global e-waste
is recycled.
Recycling and disposal of e-waste may involve
significant risk to health of workers an communities
in developed countries ,Great care should be taken.
6. Generally for the preparation of an electronic
device we use different valuable, hard parts.
After the usage of that device we throw it.
To avoid this situation parts like iron-based
metal, glass & plastic castings can be melted
down and reused as raw materials.
7. If the time period of a device is ended ,we transfer
the information from old devices to the new devices
,in this process the sensitive data still exists in the
device.
On means of above problem “YAHOO & EQUIFAX’S”
major security has collapsed.The company liabilities
has been exposed
So ,Be sure double-check for security liabilities
before you handle your e-waste.
8. DONATIONS:
By donating the e-waste we can transform the inconvenience into
a valuable asset once more..
We can donate the following:
computers monitors
Televisions
Cell phones
Ipads
Cables(USB,AUXetc..)
Large companies like electronic distributers and
manufactures will accept donations.
You can donate if the data on your equipment has
been entirely sanitized.
This donations increase product lifespan and
prevent further environmental pollution.
9. EFFECT OF THE E-WASTE ON
ENVIRONMENT..
When e-waste is dumped in land fills it seeps
into groundwater reservoirs and eventually
out into rivers ,lakes , oceans effecting marine
habitants.
Once the toxic from e-waste enters the eco-
system it is very difficult to remove it.
10. EFFECTS ON HUMANHEALTH..
In e-waste management generally in the process of
melting ,dismantling etc..the toxic materials like
lead ,cadmium, mercury etc releases into
atmosphere.
LEAD: lead can be spread through inhalation, skin
contact, which causes nausea, coma, even death.
CADMIUM: it can found in rechargeable batteries ,it
is mostly used.when cadmium release while
dismantling, it accumulates in the near by crops and
in the humans and animals.
it results in kidney failures, bone problems,
hyper tension, learning capacity in children..
11. GUIYU is a place in china where the 65% of
worlds e-waste is treated ,due to this the
women in guiyu miscarriage rate was increased
and children have high lead levels in their blood
streams. And also suffering from mental
disorders.
MERCURY: it is most popular metals used in
electronic devices. it mainly effects on the central
nervous system ,on spreading of this causes
tremours,fever,vomitings..
It is used in house hold products like
batteries,fluroscent lamps,thermostarters etc…
12. E-WASTE MANAGEMENT IN DIFFERENT
COUNTRIES..
China(7.2 million tons per annum)
USA(6.3 million tons per annum)
Japan(2.1 million tons per annum)
INDIA(2.0 million tons per annum)
Germany(1.9 million tons per annum)
13. IN JAPAN:
Japan is first country to implement
electronic waste recycling program.
They had implemented many laws in
favour with e-waste management.
One of he law : Japan citizens if they buy
any appliances likeTV’S ,AC etc..when
they send for recycling process they will
get some money back as 50% ofTV
and 70% of AC.
14. Japan is also planning to use the e-waste in
olympics.in gold metals at least 6grms of gold
should be present remaining composition is with
e-waste, by which it becomes more strong and
durable.
Japan Olympic organize committee launches it
by 2020.
15. IN USA:
US should second position in producing e-waste.
They generally manage the e-waste by
exporting it to the place where the
environmental restrictions are less, and where
the people has less technical knowledge about e-
waste ,transports to that destination.
And they burn the e-waste in rural areas
,because it is the cheapest option. By burning
they extracts the metals like gold etc..
They will test the e-waste if there is any chance
of function, remaining turns into ashes.
16. IN CHINA:
China has took the first rank in increasing the
volume of e-waste.
Actually in china e-waste disposal sector is
responsible for many jobs in rural areas
certainly in southeastern part of china.
China was the largest importer of the e-waste
due to the cheap labour and environmental
standards. But later govt. of china banned
this process. but in some places illegally it is
active..
17. E-waste management in china continue rises
with china’s economic development, technical
innovation, and urbanization as more electronics
are created and consumed and disposed.
China manages the e-waste in maximum
possible ways i.e.., manual dismantling and
chemical seperation,through which maximum e-
waste is recycled ,re-used, and reformed.
70% worlds e-waste is treated and it employees
around 100,000 people.
18. IN INDIA:
E-waste is recycled 75% in india.it is transformed
into suitable materials.
We also set up the micro factories in India that can
transform e-waste into reusable materials to be
converted into ceramics and plastic filaments for 3D
printings etc..
We extract useful metals from e-waste which is
processed in temperature controlled areas, instead
of open burning they extract like gold, silver, copper
etc..and also plastic.
And also providing the jobs on e-waste
management…

20. OUR ROLE IN E-WASTE MANAGEMENT:
The only role of us is to aware the people
about the effects of e-waste, and its
management.
