Total No. of PC users in India is Over 80
Million.
Total No. of MOBILE users in India
India has 554.8 million mobile users.
These users actively use 643.4 million SIMs
actively.
6
 INTRODUCTION
Findings in the UNU report point to a clear,
steady growth trend in e-waste, which is
projected to continue at a rate of two million
metric tonnes per year. This would mean
almost 50 million metric tonnes by 2018.
7
E-waste or electronic waste
refers to old electrical and
electronic equipment that
have reached the end of
their life.
Such as discarded
computers, office electronic
equipment, entertainment
device electronics, mobile
phones, television sets, and
refrigerators and much
more.
8
 WHAT IS E-WASTE
E-waste management is also called urban mining.
It is the process of extracting the parts out of the e-
waste to either sell or reuse.
The major components of E-waste Management are
E-waste collection, sorting and transportation.
E-waste recycling.
9

 Large Household Appliances
 Small Household Appliances
 Consumer & Lighting
Equipment's
 Electrical & Electronic Tools
 Toys, Leisure & Sports
Equipment
 Medical Devices
 Monitoring & Control

10
 SOURCES OF E-WASTE
11
PROBLEMS OF E-WASTE
 The toxic materials from electronic devices are
released into bodies of water, groundwater, soil and
air, affecting both land and sea animals.
When e-waste is warmed up, toxic chemicals are
released into the air damaging the atmosphere.
12
I. ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
13
 Much of this left in junkyard to polluted the environment or
burned for scrap by kids. Informal recycling markets in
China, India, Pakistan, Vietnam, and Philippines handle
anywhere from 50 per cent to 80 per cent of the world’s e-
waste.
 When electronic devices are dumped in these developing
countries the impact is detrimental to the environment of
the country and the health of the people.
14
II. TONS E-WASTE IS SHIPPED
OVERSEAS
 Computers and most electronics
contain toxic materials such as
lead, zinc, nickel, barium and
chromium, specifically with lead, if
released is not the environment can
cause damage to human blood,
kidneys, as well as central and
peripheral nervous systems. Residents
of Guiyu, China exhibit substantial
digestive, neurological, respiratory and
bone problems. The impact of
electronic waste is detrimental to the
health of the people in these
developing countries.
15
III. HEALTH IMPLICANT OF E-
WASTE
 Managers should be concerned with where their electronic
equipment is going after disposal because they are worried
about sensitive data loss, identity theft, consumer scams,
data breaches and loss of integrity. These are just a few of
the problems that can be cause by not properly disposing of
your electronic waste due to people stealing information from
the hard drives in e-waste.
16
IV. DATA SECURITY
17
18
 E-WASTE TECHNIQUES
Buying things we simply do not need is
probably the biggest cause of e-waste. We need to
stop (really, STOP) and ask ourselves if we even
need a gadget or electronic item BEFORE we buy it.
We need to activate that voice in our heads that
prevents us from buying electronic items we simply
don’t need.
19
1. BUY LESS.
Give away or donate your e-waste.
If you don’t need a thing, donate it so someone else
can use it. Donations are great for tax deductions;
often the amount will be close to the value of the
item if you tried to sell it.
If something you have isn’t worth donating,
maybe give your stuff away for free on sites
like Free Cycle.
20
2. DONATE YOUR E-WASTE
A few stores have a buy-back program. Before
you purchase a new gadget at a store, ask the store
if they’ll buy back your old camera, laptop, or any
other electronic. Best Buy has a trade-in-OPTION,
where you can get rid of your old equipment in
exchange for Best Buy gift cards.
21
3. TAKE THEM BACK TO THE
STORE
 Learn about your local
recycling options.
If you’re in the United
States, the EPA Website has
information on your local
options for recycling
electronics. No matter where
you live, check out your
options to recycle locally,
and share them with your
family and community.
22
4. MORE LEARN
 E-waste recycling is the reuse and reprocessing of
electrical and electronic equipment of any type that
has been discarded or regarded as obsolete.
Recycling of e-waste is a growing trend and was
initiated to protect human and environmental
health mainly due to the widespread environmental
pollution impacts of e-waste.
