Abstract:-
It is established that the e-waste comprised of personal computers, air conditioners, refrigerators, fluorescent lamps and old telephones handsets. Such discarded equipment is found to contain useful metals such as iron, copper and aluminium as well as ecological contaminants such as lead and mercury. The huge amounts of waste from electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) have made it very urgent to make such systems that can guarantee selective collection and legal treatment of such electronic waste. But, in some countries now and today also not having legislation or yet not devised a waste management system to comply with the law. Our country India today working on it for better waste managements. In some status dumping yards are developed for waste management. On daily basic local recycling companies who can get benefits from these materials for doing management of waste.
