The Future of E-Waste Recycling: Emerging Technologies and Practices Evaluating the Social and Economic Benefits of Advanced E-Waste Recycling Technologies

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: : The exponential development in electronic waste (e-waste) has become an urgent global concern, necessitating new and sustainable recycling solutions. Emerging technologies, including bioleaching, robots, and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven material recovery, present prospects to transform e-waste management by enhancing resource recovery, minimizing environmental impact, and boosting social and economic growth. This study assesses the effectiveness of these sophisticated recycling technologies, concentrating on their economic viability, environmental sustainability, and societal advantages. A mixed-methods approach, integrating quantitative data analysis and qualitative insights, gives a full appraisal of the revolutionary potential of these technologies in the context of a circular economy.
