“Control-Alt-Delete”: Rebooting Solutions for the E-Waste Problem
Full text linkA number of efforts have been launched to solve the global electronic waste (e-waste) problem. The efficiency of e-waste recycling is subject to variable national legislation, technical capacity, consumer participation, and even detoxification. E-waste management activities result in procedural irregularities and risk disparities across national boundaries. We review these variables to reveal opportunities for research and policy to reduce the risks from accumulating e-waste and ineffective recycling. Full regulation and consumer participation should be controlled and reinforced to improve local e-waste system. Aiming at standardizing best practice, we alter and identify modular recycling process and infrastructure in eco-industrial parks that will be expectantly effective in countries and regions to handle the similar e-waste stream. Toxicity can be deleted through material substitution and detoxification during the life cycle of electronics. Based on the idea of "Control-Alt-Delete", four patterns of the way forward for global e-waste recycling are proposed to meet a variety of local situations
Chemisches Recycling von Polyethylenterephthalat und Polymethylmethacrylat
No full textDifferent processes for chemical recycling of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and the pyrolysis of aluminium hydroxide filled poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were investigated in this thesis. The main focus was the use of the Hamburg fluidized bed process at temperatures between 400 C and 730 C.SIGLEAvailable from: http://www.sub.uni-hamburg.de/disse/970/dissertation.pdf / FIZ - Fachinformationszzentrum Karlsruhe / TIB - Technische InformationsbibliothekDEGerman
