E-waste Management and the Conservation of Geochemical Scarce Resources

摘要: Electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) generates very complex waste due to the wide variety of components such as metals, polymers, ceramic materials, composite elements. In addition, growing consumption these devices technological development increases rate they are disposed of. When improperly of, electric (WEEE) may trigger environmental impacts negative effects on health. Also, expansion industry is based extraction natural resources, some which running increasingly scarce. this scenario, recycling stands an alternative in effort recover economically interesting materials abundant equipment. This text discusses current scenario electrical generation considering implications resource management environment, social, economic impact production chain.
