The elements like lead, cadmium, beryllium, arsenic used in electronic devices have harmful effects to the human body. Lead can cause seizures, high blood pressure. Cadmium can damage lungs, kidneys and liver. Beryllium can lead to a fatal condition known as Acute Beryllium Disease. Arsenic, a potent toxin, can damage digestive tract. Other used elements are also poisonous. So everyone needs to be more cautious of health and environmental concerns.

We can end this problem and conserve the environment for next generation by fund raising recycling programs of old electronic devices. A legislation should also be imposed for end of life management of electronic devices.

Electronic waste from electronic devices is damaging the environment. It pose problems due to presence of toxic chemicals. Companies would have to collect, reuse recycle and manage other workable managements for disposal of used electronic devices. It will ensure proper handling of e-waste and save the environment.

Common in Electronic Gadget are enclosure or casing, PCB & Trace materials like Gold, copper, lead, semiconductor, plastic, solder lead (or could be RoHS). The plastic part can be heated and separated, then more heat will remove semiconductors from PCB solder,pcb trace can be eliminated by chemical reaction, now all the semiconductor has to be shredded into fine dust and chemical reaction can remove the internal bonds, then we get the semiconductor which can be reprocessed for new one. Thanks

India, as a populous country, generates massive amounts of electrical trash. E-waste is hazardous to people as well as all other living things. People who need the same chargers for their phones and live in the same house should be prohibited more chargers.
