The processing of electronic waste in developing countries causes serious health and pollution
problems due to the fact that electronic equipment contains serious contaminants such as lead,
cadmium, Beryllium etc. This paper deals with the non hazardous and inert components of Ewaste
generated out of Obsolete Computers, TV Cabins, Refrigerator, Mobile phones and washing Machine
etc. Postconsumer components of above mentioned appliance have traditionally been disposed off
either in domestic refuse, which ends up in landfill, were collected in designated collection spots for
reuse/ recycling. The major objective of this task is to reduce as for as possible the accumulation of
used and discarded electronic and electrical equipments and transfer waste into socially and
industrially beneficial raw material using simple, low cost and environmental friendly technology. Iron
and Steel are the most common materials found in electrical and electronic equipments and amounts to
nearly half of the total weight of WEEE. Plastic are the second largest component by weight
representing nearly 21 % of WEEE.
