"E-waste" of the types and hazards

A wide range of e-waste can be broadly divided into two categories: one is contained in the material is relatively simple, less environmentally harmful waste electrical and electronic products, such as refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners and other appliances, and medical, research and electrical appliances, dismantling and disposal of such products is relatively simple; the other is contained in more complex materials, the larger the environmental hazards of waste electrical and electronic products, such as computers, TV picture tubes of lead, the computer components in the contains arsenic, mercury and other harmful substances. Raw materials in mobile phones arsenic, cadmium, lead and many other toxic and harmful substances.

According to experts, e-waste is a master of poison. For example, 1 15-inch

CRT Computer monitors to contain cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PVC plastics and brominated flame retardants and other harmful substances; computer batteries and switches containing chromium compounds and mercury, computer components also contain arsenic, mercury and other a variety of harmful substances; TV, refrigerator, phone and other electronic products contain lead, chromium, mercury and other heavy metals; laser printer and copier toner contains. If the waste discarded electronic products to the wilderness as a general waste or landfill area, which contained lead well will penetrate the soil and water pollution by plants, animals and human food chain cycle, eventually leading to poisoning incidents; if on which a fire, will release a large number of dioxins and other harmful gases, a serious threat to human health.

On the one hand, and accumulated a large number of e-waste polluted the soil, rivers, groundwater, air, endangering human health; the other hand, a large number of electronic products for the mining of mineral resources production, lead to geological disasters continue to occur, mines and mineral resources, damage to the environment The growing shortage triggering resource-exhausted cities and other issues, but a lot of accumulation of electronic waste has a serious waste of resources.
