Delivery of e-waste recycle plant using sustainability approach in Sub-Saharan Africa

Electronic waste refers to the discarded and outdated electronic gadgets that are no longer functional. Primarily, the waste consists of reused, poisonous, and hazardous materials that are discharged into the environment. The quick obsolescence and limited lifespan of electronic devices have led to a significant rise in e-waste in Sub-Saharan Africa, with little attention being given to the consequences of this issue. Therefore, it is crucial to prioritize the implementation of e-waste recycling plant projects in this scenario. The proposed method of comprehending the intricacies of e-waste recycling plant projects is emphasized and examined. The research paper suggests an environmentally-friendly structure for implementing e-waste recycling facilities in sub-Saharan Africa. The proposed framework elucidates the interconnection among various elements of e-waste recycling facilities, and the significance of the suggested framework for future research is examined.

Abstract

Electronic waste refers to the discarded and outdated electronic gadgets that are no longer functional. Primarily, the waste consists of reused, poisonous, and hazardous materials that are discharged into the environment. The quick obsolescence and limited lifespan of electronic devices have led to a significant rise in e-waste in Sub-Saharan Africa, with little attention being given to the consequences of this issue. Therefore, it is crucial to prioritize the implementation of e-waste recycling plant projects in this scenario. The proposed method of comprehending the intricacies of e-waste recycling plant projects is emphasized and examined. The research paper suggests an environmentally-friendly structure for implementing e-waste recycling facilities in sub-Saharan Africa. The proposed framework elucidates the interconnection among various elements of e-waste recycling facilities, and the significance of the suggested framework for future research is examined.
