The document discusses the issue of electronic waste (e-waste) and focuses on the village of Guiyu, China as a case study. Guiyu has become one of the largest e-waste sites in the world due to the import of millions of tons of discarded electronics annually from other countries. Primitive recycling techniques used in Guiyu expose workers and the local environment to toxic heavy metals and chemicals. Proper e-waste management and recycling is needed to address the health and environmental problems caused by the rapid growth of discarded electronics.
Definition of E-waste with different examples, toxic constituents in e-waste in different components, Different categories of E-waste with examples, Challenges that we are facing because of Electronic waste and its effects on the environment, effects of different elements of hazardous waste on the human body, Management, Treatment and Disposal Techniques, environmental friendly methods for e-waste management ( Approaches to bio remediation with the name of different different bacteria and fungi ), Export and Import that takes place in the India from different countries and not only in the India but in other countries also with a pictorial view and PPT is also having data related to e-waste in different countries.
Electronic waste or e-waste describes discarded electrical or electronic devices. Used electronics which are destined for reuse, resale, salvage, recycling or disposal are also considered as e-waste. With advancements in the electronic world almost occurring on a day-to-day basis and increased availability of products to the public, it is not surprising to see a staggering increase in the generation of electronic wastes over the past decade. The e-waste now represents the biggest and fastest growing manufacturing of wastes with as high as about 40 million tons a year at the global level. All these thing leads to increase in E-waste generation in the country. Electrical and electronic equipment contain different hazardous materials which are harmful to human health and the environment, if not disposed of carefully. Due to the lack of awareness for e-waste recycling in emerging economies, innovation hubs and centres of excellence have not yet been established. This has leads to the requirement of a proper disposal and recycling system so that environmental pollution and health hazard is reduced. We have tried to give information in this book which will help in minimizing this ever growing problem. Today the electronic waste recycling business is in all areas of the developed world a large and rapidly consolidating business. This recycling is done by sorting, dismantling, and recovery of valuable materials. This diversion is achieved through reuse and refurbishing.

What is E-waste? – What causes E-waste?: Rapid development of upgraded electronic equipments forces the disposal of outdated equipments. – What makes E-waste hazardous?: All electronic equipments are made up of materials, which are harmful to human and pollute the environment when exposed. The harmful materials used in the manufacture of electronic equipments are Lead, Mercury, Plastics, CFCs, Cadmium, etc. – Current status of E-waste: E-waste now a day’s forces the world experts to turn back, as it’s a rapid growing problem in the developed and developing countries to recycle it or to dispose it safely so that they don’t pose any environmental pollution or hazards. – What caused the current state of E-waste: The lack of awareness about the hazardous & polluting nature of E-waste. And the cost to recycle E-wastes. – How to control E-waste? Reduce and Recycle: When a equipment is not working it doesn’t mean that the whole equipment has spoiled but generally just one part. By trying to use the equipments as long as possible by getting it repaired at service centers helps in reducing the accumulation of E-wastes. On the other hand certain equipments have to be disposed, at that time recycling of them prevents E-waste. – How to recycle?: The recycling of E-waste is not a simple process that can be performed all were, as they deal with harmful materials, and which requires lot of stuffs. The recycle of E-waste is done in many categories according to the material out of which it is made. – Benefits of recycling E-waste: The electronic equipments are made of material or resources such as Lead, Mercury, Plastics, CFCs, Cadmium, etc., which are nonrenewable can be recovered by the recycling process. Thus preventing nonrenewable resources from becoming extinct. Due to the availability of resources by recycling too they may account for the decrease in cost of the equipments. – Why recycling of E-waste is costly: The recycling of E-waste is costly when compared to recycling of other matters. This is because the composition of the equipments are harmful the recycling of which should be done with extensive care in hi-tech manner with expensive tools. The recycling of E-waste requires large labor as the primary aspect of recycling them is to categories them in metals, plastic, glass, etc., for further processing. As major constituent of E-waste is circuit board the de-soldering of which requires labor? These things makes recycling of E-waste costly. – Steps to control E-waste: The major reason of E-waste is the lack of awareness about it among the consumers of the electronic equipments. The control of E-waste can be achieved by creating awareness to the consumers about the hazardous nature of the equipments on disposal while selling the products. The E-waste recycle centers should be in reach of the consumers to disclose them safely to the recycler. The produce of the electronic equipments can implement the E-waste recycle unit
in this presentation we discuss about the e-waste and their effect on environment and human body, and we also discuss about the management of such waste.
It is about electronic waste which we generally don't treat seriously and throw it anywhere.Also shows some of problems created due to this waste.
Different kinds of e-waste.
This is the report created by me as part of the Environmental Course during my BTech degree.
In this pdf, I discuss about the E-Waste. The factors causing it, the health issues due to e-waste, current scenario, potential business model, statistics related to deaths due to e-waste.

Importance and basics of computer education for school studentsSriram PV
This is done by me for school students who doesn't know the importance and or any basics of computers and technology who are in rural/underdeveloped schools. Purely Basics ONLY!!
Hello guys, this is my latest power point presentation on the topic "MOBILE OS". Here I mentioned about almost popular mobile OS and discussed about 4 best platforms. View my ppts in MS office 2010 or 2013
We can often see three–dimensional holographic communication technology in science fiction movies, using the principle of three-dimensional computer graphics, and the distant person or thing can be projected in the air in the form of a three dimensional. With the development of science, all the equipment miniaturization and precision, the display device cannot match and humans would increasingly demand a new display technology to solve the problem. The 3d holographic projection precisely fits this role.
3D Holography: When Might it become Economically Feasible?Jeffrey Funk
Master's students use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) forthcoming book (Origins of New Industries) to analyze the technical and economic feasibility of 3D Holography. Improvements in lasers and holographic media are gradually making this more feasible. See my other slides for details on concepts, methodology, and other new industries..
Holographic Projection Technology COMPLETE DETAILS NEW PPT Abin Baby
This seminar examines the new technology of Holographic Projections. It
highlights the importance and need of this technology and how it represents the new
wave in the future of technology and communications, the different application of the
technology, the fields of life it will dramatically affect including business, education,
telecommunication and healthcare. The paper also discusses the future of holographic
technology and how it will prevail in the coming years highlighting how it will also
affect and reshape many other fields of life, technologies and businesses.
Holography is a diffraction-based coherent imaging technique in which a
complex three-dimensional object can be reproduced from a flat, two-dimensional
screen with a complex transparency representing amp litude and phase values. It is
commonly agreed that real-time holography is the ne plus ultra art and science of
visualizing fast temporally changing 3-D scenes. The integration of the real-time or
electro-holographic principle into display technology is o ne of the most promising but
also challenging developments for the future consumer display and TV market. Only
holography allows the reconstruction of natural-looking 3-D scenes, and therefore
provides observers with a completely comfortable viewing experience. But to date
several challenges have prevented the technology from becoming commercialized. But
those obstacles are now starting to be overcome. Recently, we have developed a novel
approach to real-time display holography by combining an overlapping sub-hologram
technique with a tracked viewing-window technology.
E-Waste or Electronic Waste may be defined as discarded computers, office electronic equipment, entertainment device electronics, mobile phones, television sets and refrigerators. This definition includes used electronics which are destined for reuse, resale, salvage, recycling, or disposal.

3. Issues and problems.
4. Hazardous substances.
5. Health conditions.
6. Recycling and uses.
7. Recycling techniques.
8. What you can do?
9. Uses by recycling old goods.
5. What is e-waste ?
E-Waste is a shortening of electronic waste.
Electronic waste, e-waste, e-scrap, or as Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE) describes discarded electrical or
electronic devices,(which are of no use other then hitting
your enemy)
Any improperly disposed electronics can be classified as e-waste.
6. Issues and problems:
Rapid changes in technology, changes in
media, falling prices, and developing new
electronics and discarding old ones, is a
huge issue arising.
Technical solutions are available, but in
most cases a legal
framework, logistics, and other services
need to be implemented before a technical
solution can be applied.
7. Electronic waste substances:
Substances found in large quantities include epoxy
resins, fibreglass, PCBs, polyvinyl chlorides ,thermosetting
plastics, lead, tin, copper ,silicon
,beryllium, carbon, iron and aluminium.
Elements found in small amounts
include cadmium, mercury, and thallium.
Elements found in trace amounts
include americium, antimony, arsenic, barium, bismuth, boron, coba
lt, europium, gallium, germanium
,gold, indium, lithium, manganese, nickel, niobium, palladium, plati
num, rhodium, ruthenium, selenium, silver, tantalum, terbium, thor
ium, titanium, vanadium, and yttrium
8. Hazardous substances:
Americium: the radioactive source in smoke alarms. It is known to
be carcinogenic.
Mercury: found in fluorescent tubes (numerous applications), tilt switches
(mechanical doorbells, thermostats),and flat screen monitors. Health
effects include sensory impairment, dermatitis, memory loss, and muscle
weakness. Environmental effects in animals include death, reduced
fertility, slower growth and development.
Sulphur: found in lead-acid batteries. Health effects include liver
damage, kidney damage, heart damage, eye and throat irritation. When
released in to the environment, it can create sulphuric acid.
9. And still
Cadmium: The most common form of cadmium is found in Nickel-
cadmium rechargeable batteries. The inhalation of cadmium can cause
severe damage to the lungs and is also known to cause kidney damage.
Lead and beryllium oxide: these are used as solder and thermal grease
respectively and are both harmful and cause severe lung infections.
10. Health conditions:
Many of the primitive recycling operations in Guiyu are
toxic and dangerous to workers' health. 88% of workers
suffer from neurological, respiratory or digestive
abnormalities or skin diseases. Higher than average
rates of miscarriage are also reported in the region.
Workers also "cook" circuit boards to remove chips
and solders, burn wires and other plastics to liberate
metals such as copper; use highly corrosive and
dangerous acid baths along the riverbanks to
extract gold from the microchips; and sweep
printer toner out of cartridges
11. Toxic Substances Present in E-waste
There are many harmful materials used
in consumer electronics including
lead, cadmium, mercury and plastics.
12. Recycling techniques:
In developed countries, electronic waste processing usually first involves
dismantling the equipment into various parts (metal frames, power
supplies, circuit boards, plastics), often by hand, but increasingly by
automated shredding equipment.
The advantages of this process are the human's ability to recognize and save
working and repairable parts, including chips, transistors, RAM, etc. The
disadvantage is that the labour is cheapest in countries with the lowest
health and safety standards.
13. Nations that have signed and ratified, along with nations that have signed
but have not ratified the agreement.
16. Electronic waste in china:
Guiyu, China, in Guangdong. Province is made up of four small villages. It
is the location of the largest electronic waste (e-waste) site on
earth, China is believed to be the predominant recipient of the world's
electronic waste, with a roughly estimated one million tons being shipped
there per year, mostly from the United States, Canada, Japan, and South
Korea. The waste arrives via container ships through the ports of Hong
Kong or Pearl River Delta at Nanhai.
22. What can you do?
In order to lessen the amount of e-waste being produced, individuals
can do many things:
1. Keep your old electronics longer instead of replacing them.
2. If discarding old electronics, be sure to recycle them at a
trusted recycling center.
3. Purchase efficient electronics that do not contain hazardous
materials such as mercury and lead.
23. Uses by recycling of e-waste materials
LED’S from old LED panels.
Computer chips using old used gold metal.
Creating new solar cells using old silicon wafers.
Recycling silicon chip for making lithium ion batteries.
Rolling up of nanowire batteries using from old silicon chips
24. The Issue
Due to the breakneck speed of the modern world at developing new
electronics and discarding old ones, a huge problem is brewing.
The recycling procedures used in disposal centers in rural china lead to toxic
materials like lead to seep into the surrounding environment.
This practice occurs all over places like India, Pakistan, Singapore, and
specifically, China.
The example being studied is the small village of Guiyu, China, which has
become a centerpiece in this issue.
