E-Waste to E-Resource: Technological Solutions for Circular Economy in Electronics

Authors

  • Terry Eagleton

Abstract

The rapid evolution of consumer electronics has led to a surge in electronic waste (e-waste), posing significant environmental challenges. This paper explores sustainable technological innovations that enable e-waste recycling, upcycling, and repurposing. Through case studies and lifecycle assessments, we examine advanced separation technologies, automated disassembly using robotics, and the use of blockchain for e-waste tracking. The study proposes a circular economy framework aimed at minimizing resource extraction while maximizing product life and material recovery.
