project tittle:-E-waste management System

Abstract—

Electronic waste may be defined as discarded computers, office electronic equipment, entertainment device electronics, mobile phones, television sets and refrigerators. This definition includes used electronics which are destined for reuse, resale, salvage, recycling, or disposal. Because loads of surplus electronics are frequently commingled (good, recyclable, and non-recyclable), several public policy advocates apply the term "e-waste" broadly to all surplus electronics. Rapid changes in technology, changes in media (tapes, software, MP3), falling prices, and planned obsolescence have resulted in a fast-growing surplus of electronic waste around the globe. This paper presents an overview of the problem and suggests some concrete solutions to tackle the issue.

E-waste management

 E-waste management system

Only last year, around as many as 166 million laptops and 1.52 billion smartphones were sold worldwide. These high numbers do not even include non-smartphone mobiles nor desktop computers. The forecasts show that the numbers will increase even more in future. Could you imagine the environmental pollution if we do not recycle these kinds of technology products when there is no more use for them?

 The excitement of purchasing a new technological device is spectacular. Brand-new feeling, sophisticated design, updated applications, faster and more reliable operating systems… But unfortunately, we barely think of what to do with the old one. This is why over 42.3 Million Tons of E-Waste was produced so far in 2020 as of November. To make things clear, what this number means in other words is throwing away 1000 laptops every single second. It is shocking!  

 What happens to technological devices when they become Electronic Waste? One of the main principles in waste management is “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”. We should be altering our consuming habits to stop the devastating effects of E-Waste pollution. If possible, it is important to Reuse our devices. Local charities accept old devices and distribute them to the people who are in need.

 When a device becomes obsolete, there are two ways to deal with it. The first and worst way is just throwing away. The second and better option is recycling. Throwing away causes toxic pollution which will harm the environment dramatically. On the contrary, recycling has many benefits such as preventing the production of ecologically dangerous materials and decreasing energy consumption.

So, by observing this we have decided to make e-waste management system. In this we have used java. 

In this system anyone can sell their unwanted parts of mobile, laptops and any other electronic devices. In this you have to fill all the necessary information in the application. 

We hope that this will useful to manage e-waste.
