Development of new materials from waste electrical and electronic equipment: Characterization and catalytic application

Management of Electronic and Electrical Equipment Waste Collection in Municipalities

“…Comprehensive mobile collection points should be located in isolation from residential buildings, children's and medical institutions, outside the parking places of transport in places where access roads can be arranged, on the basis of the development and coordination of predesign ones in accordance with the established procedure (permitting documentation, etc.) and design materials and in accordance with Sanitary rules and norms 2.2.1/2.1.1.1200-03 "Sanitary protection zones and sanitary classification of enterprises, structures and other facilities" [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

Waste electrical and electronic equipments as urban mines in Burkina Faso: Characterization and release of metal particles

“…) and organic compounds (tetrabromo-bisphenol A, polychlorinated biphenyls, hexabromocyclododecane, polybrominated diphenyl ether used as flame retardants in Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), etc. (Cesaro et al, 2018;Tian et al, 2018;Guo et al, 2011;Hadi et al, 2015;Souza et al, 2017). Because of toxic substances in e-waste with significant risk levels for human health and the environment, responsible management of end-of-life WEEE has to be promoted (Achillas et al, 2013).…”

A customer-centric framework towards robust e-waste management

“…WEEE contains more than 1000 kinds of persistent hazardous materials (such as barium (Ba), lithium (Li) and mercury (Hg), etc.) which contaminate the environment and harm human health [6,7], and more than 60% recoverable high-value metals [8][9][10] in 2002 to diminish the environmental contamination effect from brown goods, white goods and batteries [13]. Brown goods refer to relatively light electronic appliances such as computers, radios, audio equipment, and televisions, and white goods are large home appliances such as cookers, refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, tumble driers, and air conditioners [13].…”
