Abstract

The usage of electronic devices increased rapidly. The over-usage of electronic devices always led to a huge amount of waste in the form of electronic products like monitors, wires, discs, etc. e-waste is hazardous, involving things containing toxic components that are dangerous to human health, such as mercury, lead, cadmium, polybrominated flame retardants, barium, and lithium. The negative health effects of these toxins on humans include brain, heart, liver, kidney, and skeletal system damage. Every organization follows a throwback policy of dumping all these electronic wastes into the environment. This chapter proposes some tips and tricks on how to recycle hazardous e-wastes into beautiful reusable products, and methods for the distribution of these objects by creating an e-waste management system.
