E-Waste
WHAT IS E-WASTE?
The term E-waste refers to electronic products that have reached the end of their lives, such as computers, televisions, VCRs, stereos, copiers, and fax machines. Several of these products may be re-used, refurbished, or recycled.
It is estimated that less than 20% of E-waste is formally recycled; the other 80% is either thrown in landfills or recycled informally. Soil and groundwater are contaminated by E-waste in landfills, posing a threat to food supply systems and water sources.
Importance of E-Waste Recycling for a Sustainable Future Approximately 50 million tonnes of electronic and electrical waste (E-waste)
Each year is generated worldwide, equivalent to all commercial airliners combined (or 4,500 Eiffel Towers). There is a significant growth in E-waste, with a growth rate of 20-25% each year. These current trends indicate that E-waste production has the potential to reach 120 million tonnes per year by 2050.
