E-waste is the popular, informal name for electronic products nearing the end of their “useful life.” Computers, television, VCRs, stereos , copiers, and fax machines are common electronic products. Many of these products can be reused refurbished, or recycled. Improper disposal affects human and environmental health because many of these products contain toxic substance 15-20% of e-waste is recycled, the rest of these electronics go directly into landfills and incinerators Electronics waste contains hazardous but also valuable and scare materials an estimated 70% of heavy metals in landfills comes from discarded electronics

2. E-waste

3. Introduction
 E-waste is the popular, informal name for electronic
products nearing the end of their “useful life.”
 Computers, television, VCRs, stereos , copiers, and fax
machines are common electronic products. Many of
these products can be reused refurbished, or recycled.
 Improper disposal affects human and environmental
health because many of these products contain toxic
substance

4.  15-20% of e-waste is recycled, the rest of these
electronics go directly into landfills and incinerators
 Electronics waste contains hazardous but also valuable
and scare materials
 an estimated 70% of heavy metals in landfills comes
from discarded electronics

5.  Environmental damage on the area
 Seven out of ten kids have too much lead in
their blood if resides in such place

6.  Recycling of e-waste requires
sophisticated technology and
processes
 These are not only very
expensive, but also need specific
Skills and training for the operation

7.  proper recycling of complex
materials requires the expensive to
recognize or determine the
presence of hazardous or potentially
hazardous constituents as well as
desirable constituents

8. Outcomes

9.  Recycling is the most effective solution to be
growing e-waste problem
 Most electronic devices contain a variety of
materials, including metals that can be
recovered for future uses
 Air and water pollution caused by hazardous
disposal is avoided

10. Benefits of Recycling
 Additionally, recycling reduces the amount
of greenhouse gas emissions caused by the
manufacturing of new products
 it simply makes good sense and is efficient to
recycle and to do our part to keep the
environment green

11. RECYCLE
DISPOSE
REUSE

12. Reuse
 Preventing waste in the first place is the
preferred management option
 This can be achieved through repairing,
upgrading used electrical equipment

13. Recycle
 Make use of take back
programs
 The silver ,gold, lead and
other heavy metal are
recyclable from discarded
equipments

14. Dispose
 The least preferred option is to landfill
electrical waste
 This electrical only come under as a option but
care to consult with state regulation on
disposal of any hazardous waste

15. Future….
 An increase in the number of businesses that will refurbish
and recycle electronic equipment. This will help
keep more equipment in continued use , and out of
landfills.
 Additional take back programs by
electronic equipment manufacturers
 Greater use of alternative products,such as LCD panels and
plasma screen for televisions and computers. These
items contain little or no hazardous material
