Abstract:
Globalization, technical advancements, the development of the Internet, and closer access to smart devices have contributed to the growth of the electrical and electron¬ics industries. The wide availability and the use of electronic items have led to a rap¬id increment in global electronic waste (e-waste) volumes, because markets have not paid adequate attention to electronic device post-consumption behavior, prop¬er disposal and management. There are significant environmental problems con¬nected with e-waste at both the local and global levels that demand more attention from governments, businesses, institutions and society. Everyone is familiar with waste recycling but there is an emerging trend, called upcycling. Upcycling electronics is an effective and viable procedure for con¬verting end-of-life devices into new ones. The procedure refers to the modification of old waste materials, to recreate and give them a new life or purpose without having to spend a lot of money on new resources. This approach is used not only to improve living quality; but also, to provide the de¬veloped items with a sense of higher envi¬ronmental worth. It will also improve the artistic value of the creation. This article aims to provide a solution to problems that arise because of e-waste.
