Abstract

Electronic waste (e-waste) can be defined as waste material from electric appliances. Currently, a large quantity of e-waste ends up in landfills, where it can have adverse effects on the environment. Furthermore, e-waste management is rapidly becoming a global issue due to the difficulty of recycling the key components for reuse.
