The growing amount of electronic waste (e-waste) poses significant environmental and health challenges, driven by the rapid pace of technological advancement. Traditional disposal methods can no longer address the problem, requiring a more comprehensive strategy. Sustainable management of e-waste requires an approach that incorporates technological innovations, effective policy regulations, responsible consumer practices, and efficient recycling systems. By integrating these elements, it is possible to reduce environmental harm, recover valuable materials, and promote a circular economy that minimizes waste while maximizing resource efficiency. Further examination may ensure the benefits of modern technology do not hinder ecological and human well-being. Integrated Approaches for Sustainable E-Waste Management explores the challenges and opportunities in managing electronic waste sustainably. From the design phase to disposal, it explores innovative strategies and solutions for minimizing the environmental impact of e-waste while maximizing resource recovery and reuse. This book covers topics such as ecotoxicity, health risks, and blockchain, and is a useful resource for biologists, business owners, academicians, researchers, and environmental scientists.
