Mass Emissions of Pollutants from E-Waste Processed in China and Human Exposure AssessmentChinaElectronic waste (e-wasteHuman exposureMass emissionPollutantElectronic waste (e-waste) has become a pressing global pollution issue. The situation in China is more severe, due to largely primitive recycling...
Due to the crude recycling process, many pollutants, such as persistent organic pollutants and heavy metals, are released from e-waste, which can easily accumulate in the human body through the inhalation of contaminated air. After exposing the cultured lung cells to the organic-soluble and water...

Large amounts of toxic waste have been dispersed in thousands of contaminated sites spread across our nation. Thus, the risk to human and environmental health is rising. These pollutants belong to two main classes: inorganic and organic. E-waste is growing exponentially recent years because the ...
Waste sourced bio-based substances for solar-driven wastewater remediation: Photodegradation of emerging pollutants The effect of soluble bio-based organic substances (SBO) isolated from urban wastes on photochemical wastewater treatments was investigated using a mixture...

Recovery of the valuable elements from e-waste The major economic driving force for recycling of WEEE is the value of the metallic fractions (MFs). Until recently, the general aim of e-waste recycling has been to separate and recover individual value metals from mixed materials contained in e...
Formal processing prevents the release of these pollutants and thereby providing adequate worker and environmental protections. Most studies and regulatory requirements on e-waste consider the recycling of all materials within the waste stream and focus on preventing any component of the e-waste from ...
according to research published inNature. However, most electronic waste still ends up in landfills or gets incinerated, wasting useful resources and releasing toxic chemicals and other pollutants — such as lead, mercury, and cadmium — into the soil, groundwater, and atmosphere to thedetriment ...
E-waste from cathode ray tubes (CRTs), printed circuit board assemblies, capacitors, mercury switches, batteries, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), photocopier cartridges, selenium drums (copier) and electrolytes contains various pollutants and toxic metals such as lead, mercury and hexavalent chromium ...
