Waste Generated by Man

•Organic waste is the purest form of waste available.

•We all are finding ways of disposing off the other waste materials

•But why dispose them?

What is E-Waste?

• Electronic waste describes discarded electrical or electronic devices.

• An estimated 50 million tons of E-waste are produced each year

• Could rise by 500 percent in India(10 years)

Page 10: Waste management

The Problem

• Electrical waste contains hazardous, valuable and scarce materials. Up to 60 elements

• United States, an estimated 70% of heavy metals from discarded electronics(Eg. Lead, cadmium, copper, nickel)

• developing nations -"dumping grounds for e-waste”China(e-waste) annually= 2.3+3=5.3 million tons
