Introduction
The Electronics Issue… In the last 10 to 15 years, rapid growth and technology changes in electronics have led to an increasing turnover of computers, tablets, phones, display screens, printers and other electronics. Consequently, businesses – and households – have seen steady growth in the volume of their electronics needing safe and cost effective end-of-life management.
Electronics being disposed of are commonly referred to as e-waste. The word e-waste, however, is a misnomer because it implies that such electronics have no value. The term e-scrap may be more appropriate since up to 99% of the materials making up an electronic product are recyclable and have monetary value in secondary markets.
