Objective 
Green Electronics = Green + Electronics 
The word ‘green’ demonstrates the ‘ecofriendly’ character. 
“ Green Electronics emphasizes on 
elemination of harmful substances 
& the disposal of electronic wastes ; 
by applying ecofriendly techniques.” 
Green Electronics is simply E-waste Management.

Disposal of e -waste 
Basically, three techniques are used for the disposal of 
E-waste materials: 
1).Incineration 
2).Landfillng 
3).Recycling
incineration 
Incineration involves combustion of 
E-waste materials. 
Volume of E-waste materials can be 
Reduced upto 20-30% . 
Incineration is also called as “Thermal 
treatement”. 
e. g. incinerators .
Land filling 
Simplest & highly applicable technique . 
Landfilling means “E-waste materials 
are burried (filled) inside the land”. 
Designing of landfills in a modern way 
is a complex phenomenon. 
e.g. modern landfills.
Methan Leachate treatement system 
gas recovery system ------------- 
Well to 
monitor Clay trap 
Ground Trash 
Water 
Leachate collection Aquifier 
system
recycling 
Recycling refers to the widespread collection 
& reuse of E-waste. 
Collection of E-waste using dedicated bins, 
collection vehicals. 
Recycling of complex products( computer & 
electronic equipments) is slightly difficult in 
comparison to single type products(PVC).
