The rapid growth of the production of electrical and electronic products has meant an equally rapid
growth in the amount of electronic waste (e-waste), much of which is illegally imported to India, for
disposal presenting a serious environmental challenge. The environmental impact during e-waste
recycling was investigated and metal as well as other pollutants [e.g. polybrominated diphenyl ethers
(PBDEs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)] were found in excessive levels in soil, water and other
habitats. The most e-waste is dealt with as general or crudely often by open burning, acid baths, with
recovery of only a few materials of value. As resulted of these process; dioxins, furans, and heavy metals
are released and harmful to the surrounding environment, engaged workers, and also residents inhabiting
near the sites. The informal e-waste sectors are growing rapidly in the developing countries over
than in the developed countries because of cheapest labor cost and week legislations systems. It has been
confirmed that contaminates are moving through the food chain via root plant translocation system, to
the human body thereby threatening human health. We have suggested some possible solution toward
in which plants and microbes combine to remediate highly contaminated sites.
