-:Definition:-
E-waste can be considered to cover TVs, computers,
mobile phones, home entertainment and stereo systems,
toys, toasters, kettles – almost any household or
business item having electrical components with power
or battery supply.
The definition includes used electronics which are
destined for reuse, resale, recycling, or disposal.
-:History of E-waste:-
Informal processing of E-Waste in developing
countries may cause serious health and pollution
problems.
E-Waste is a hazardous waste that poses potential
threats to public health and the environment.
Some electronic components, such as CRTs, may
contain contaminants such as lead, cadmium,
beryllium, or brominated flame retardants.
According to the U.S. environmental laws (Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act) hazardous E-Waste
fall into two major categories: characteristic E-Waste
and listed E-Waste:
a) Characteristic hazardous E-Waste:-
 Ignitability (i.e., flammable)
 Reactivity
 Corrosives
 Toxicity
b) Listed hazardous E-Wastes:-
Such type of E-Waste generates by some larger
companies such as:
 Chemical manufacturers.
 Electroplating companies.
 Oil refineries.
Hazardous E-Waste is a special type of waste
because it cannot be disposed of by common means
like other by-products of our everyday lives.
-:Types of E-Waste:-
Types of electronic waste according to the WEEE
directive:-
 Large household appliances.
 Small household appliances.
 Office & communication.
 Entertainment electronics.
 Lighting equipment.
 Medical instruments.
 Automatic issuing systems.
-:StEP Initiative:-
It is an international initiative, created to develop
solutions to address issues associated with Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
Aims and Means of StEP:-
One of the most important aims of the StEP Initiative is to
elaborate a set of global guidelines for the treatment of e-
waste and the promotion of sustainable material
recycling.
StEP’s aim is to reduce dangers to humans and the
environment, which result from inadequate and
irresponsible treatment practices, and advance resource
efficiency.
*StEP:- Solving the E-Waste Problems
-:E-Waste Management:-
Recycling of E-Waste:-
Today E-Waste recycling becomes the world largest
business all over the world. The environmental and
social benefits of reuse include:
 Diminished demand for new products.
 Larger quantities of pure water and electricity for
associated manufacturing.
 Less packaging per unit.
 Diminished use of landfills.
Consumer Awareness Efforts:-
 Address TheMess.com is a Comedy Central pro-social
campaign that seeks to increase awareness of the dangers
of E-Waste and to encourage recycling.
 NativeEnergy.com, is a company that specializes
in renewable energy.
 The Electronics “TakeBack” Coalition is a campaign
aimed at protecting human health.
 The Certified Electronics Recyclers is an Integrated
management system that improve the quality,
environment, health and safety (QEH&S) performance.
Processing techniques:-
Firstly involves dismantling the equipment into
various parts (metal frames, power supplies,
circuit boards, plastics).
A typical example is the NADIN electronic waste
processing plant in Bulgaria, the largest facility of
its kind in Europe.
The advantages of this process are the human's
ability to recognize and save working of
repairable parts, including chips, transistors,
RAM, etc.
-:E-Waste Substances:-
Hazardous Substances:-
Mercury.(Use in fluorescent tubes.)
Sulphur.(Use in lead acid batteries.)
Cadmium.(Found in light-sensitive resistors.)
Lead.(Found in lead acid batteries.)
Beryllium oxide.(Found in power transistors.)
Non-Hazardous Substances:-
Tin: Coatings on component leads.
Iron: Cases, and fixings.
Nickel: Nickel-cadmium batteries.
Lithium: Lithium-ion batteries.
Zinc: Plating for steel parts.

E waste

  • 1.
  • 3. -:Contents:- • Definition • History of E-Waste • Types of E-Waste • StEP Initiative • E-Waste Management • E-Waste Substances • References
  • 4. -:Definition:- E-waste can be considered to cover TVs, computers, mobile phones, home entertainment and stereo systems, toys, toasters, kettles – almost any household or business item having electrical components with power or battery supply. The definition includes used electronics which are destined for reuse, resale, recycling, or disposal.
  • 5. -:History of E-waste:- Informal processing of E-Waste in developing countries may cause serious health and pollution problems. E-Waste is a hazardous waste that poses potential threats to public health and the environment. Some electronic components, such as CRTs, may contain contaminants such as lead, cadmium, beryllium, or brominated flame retardants.
  • 6. According to the U.S. environmental laws (Resource Conservation and Recovery Act) hazardous E-Waste fall into two major categories: characteristic E-Waste and listed E-Waste: a) Characteristic hazardous E-Waste:-  Ignitability (i.e., flammable)  Reactivity  Corrosives  Toxicity
  • 7. b) Listed hazardous E-Wastes:- Such type of E-Waste generates by some larger companies such as:  Chemical manufacturers.  Electroplating companies.  Oil refineries. Hazardous E-Waste is a special type of waste because it cannot be disposed of by common means like other by-products of our everyday lives.
  • 8. -:Types of E-Waste:- Types of electronic waste according to the WEEE directive:-  Large household appliances.  Small household appliances.  Office & communication.  Entertainment electronics.  Lighting equipment.  Medical instruments.  Automatic issuing systems.
  • 9. -:StEP Initiative:- It is an international initiative, created to develop solutions to address issues associated with Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). Aims and Means of StEP:- One of the most important aims of the StEP Initiative is to elaborate a set of global guidelines for the treatment of e- waste and the promotion of sustainable material recycling. StEP’s aim is to reduce dangers to humans and the environment, which result from inadequate and irresponsible treatment practices, and advance resource efficiency. *StEP:- Solving the E-Waste Problems
  • 10. -:E-Waste Management:- Recycling of E-Waste:- Today E-Waste recycling becomes the world largest business all over the world. The environmental and social benefits of reuse include:  Diminished demand for new products.  Larger quantities of pure water and electricity for associated manufacturing.  Less packaging per unit.  Diminished use of landfills.
  • 11. Consumer Awareness Efforts:-  Address TheMess.com is a Comedy Central pro-social campaign that seeks to increase awareness of the dangers of E-Waste and to encourage recycling.  NativeEnergy.com, is a company that specializes in renewable energy.  The Electronics “TakeBack” Coalition is a campaign aimed at protecting human health.  The Certified Electronics Recyclers is an Integrated management system that improve the quality, environment, health and safety (QEH&S) performance.
  • 12. Processing techniques:- Firstly involves dismantling the equipment into various parts (metal frames, power supplies, circuit boards, plastics). A typical example is the NADIN electronic waste processing plant in Bulgaria, the largest facility of its kind in Europe. The advantages of this process are the human's ability to recognize and save working of repairable parts, including chips, transistors, RAM, etc.
  • 13. -:E-Waste Substances:- Hazardous Substances:- Mercury.(Use in fluorescent tubes.) Sulphur.(Use in lead acid batteries.) Cadmium.(Found in light-sensitive resistors.) Lead.(Found in lead acid batteries.) Beryllium oxide.(Found in power transistors.)
  • 14. Non-Hazardous Substances:- Tin: Coatings on component leads. Iron: Cases, and fixings. Nickel: Nickel-cadmium batteries. Lithium: Lithium-ion batteries. Zinc: Plating for steel parts.
  • 15. -:References:-  www.step-initiative.org  www.greenpeace.org/.../electronics/...e-waste.../where-does-e- waste  www.calrecycle.ca.gov/electronics/whatisewaste  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_waste
