We are beginning a meta-analysis to compare electronic waste production, processing, and transportation. This is a new field for our group, and we would love to know what available international, national, or regional databases are available. Likewise, if anyone is interested in a collaborating on this project, a M.S. student in our group is highly motivated to push this forward.
Key terms: e-waste; Waste from electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE); circular economy; electronic waste; electronic recycling; end of life; life cycle analysis.
You can refer to our book, "Sustainable Metal Extraction from Waste Streams' by Wiley publishers. It has all the details regarding various components of e-waste, traditional as well as emerging eco-friendly technologies for metal extraction from e-waste.
