    E-Waste Management Strategies: Mitigating Health Hazards Posed by E-Waste Chemicals
    (The Lawgical Junction and MJS Publishing House, 2025) Nazia Iqbal, Abdussalam
    This abstract provides an overview of the environmental and health hazards associated with electronic waste (e-waste) and the chemicals contained within it. E-waste, a complex mixture of metals, plastics, and other substances, poses significant risks due to the presence of hazardous compounds. Improper handling and disposal of e-waste can lead to the release of toxic chemicals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and flame retardants which can have detrimental effects on human health and the environment. This abstract highlight the importance of proper recycling and disposal practices to mitigate the environmental and health impacts of e-waste chemicals. Additionally, it emphasizes the need for effective legislation and international collaboration to address the challenges posed by e-waste and ensure sustainable management practices for electronic waste.

    E-Waste Management System: An Approach and Assessment
    (MJS Publication, 2025) Uzma, Aqeel Ahmad Khan
    Electronic waste (e-waste) has emerged as one of the fastest-growing waste streams worldwide, primarily driven by rapid technological advancements, shortened product lifecycles, and consumer demand for modern electronics. This study aims to explore the current approaches and assess the effectiveness of e-waste management systems, with a focus on sustainable handling, disposal, and recycling practices. The research delves into the classification of e-waste, its environmental and health impacts, and the legal frameworks governing its management in both global and Indian contexts. Emphasis is placed on the roles of stakeholders, including producers, consumers, recyclers, and regulatory authorities, in the e-waste value chain. Through analysis of existing collection mechanisms, extended producer responsibility (EPR), and informal sector dynamics, the study identifies gaps in implementation and suggests strategic interventions to improve efficiency. The paper also highlights successful models from developed countries that can be adapted in developing nations to mitigate the growing crisis. Ultimately, this assessment seeks to promote an integrated, circular economy-based e-waste management approach that prioritizes environmental safety, resource recovery, and public health.
