Electronic waste, also known as e-waste, usually refers to electrical or electronic equipment that is discarded by individuals or businesses, such as mobile phones, televisions, computers, refrigerators, etc. Most of them contain heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and mercury and organic pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls and brominated flame retardants. If they are not recovered and treated in a standardized manner, these toxic and harmful substances will have extremely adverse effects on the environment such as atmosphere, water and soil, destroy normal ecosystems and even directly threaten human health. In addition, unlike the conventional electronic waste disposal waste stream, various electronic equipment, military equipment, space waste and other emerging waste streams inside abandoned cars have not yet been included in the category of electronic waste. This means that behind the "achievement" that the annual global production of e-waste has almost doubled in the past 12 years, the reality is only more severe, and this is in the context of 2.6 billion people around the world still do not have access to the Internet and their electronic devices are being upgraded slowly.
Green and low-carbon circular electronic products have brought new choices to consumers, while reducing costs, they will also imperceptibility shape environmentally friendly attitudes and awareness, and add a social supervision force to accelerate the green transformation of enterprises.
