Current status of E-waste management

Regional E-waste Monitor: East and South East Asia Webinar

  • E-waste legislation
  • National legislation with Extend Producer Responsibility
  • E-waste collection, treatment and recycling

1.

Collection: by retailers, collection points in municipalities, by informal collectors;

2.

Dismantling and depollution: Manual process

3.

Sorting and separation: Manual or mechanical means

4.

Material and energy recovery: Secondary material and energy source

E-waste management system matrix and types

Regional E-waste Monitor: East and South East Asia Webinar

Type 1 Advance mechanism Strong legal framework for e-waste Established and functional collection and recycling infrastructure High environmental health and safety standards. Type 2 Voluntary initiative Private sector initiative, including take-back programme E-waste management in the absence of a legal framework for e-waste Type 3 In transition Nascent legal framework that is still being tested Collection and processing infrastructure involving a mix of formal and informal actors, Type 4 Informal initiative Informal sector for collection, recycling and disposal of e-waste No established legal framework

Findings

Regional E-waste Monitor: East and South East Asia Webinar

  • E-waste in East and Southeast Asia jumps 63% in 5 Years

(12.3 million tonnes in 2015)

  • Lack infrastructure for environmentally sound e-waste

management, but the increasing volumes are a cause for concern

  • Common practices such as open burning, which can cause

acute and chronic ill-effects on public health and the environment

  • Needs of a holistic approach to waste management, taking

into account many factors, such as a country’s socio-economic development, governance structures environmental awareness and health and safety standards, etc.
