E-Waste Collection and Management System

Turning Electronic Wastes into Valuable Resources

Course Overview

The E-Waste Collection and Management System training course provides the necessary concepts, knowledge, and good practices concerning the proper safety management and disposal of electronic wastes. It follows the framework and instructions of sound international electronic waste management programs. It helps those involved in planning, operating, purchasing, and controlling electronic waste to improve the conditions for sustainable development within electronic operations and wastes.

Electronic wastes may be misunderstood as those wastes only related to IT equipment. Still, according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), e-Waste is “any appliance using an electric power supply that has reached its end-of-life”. So, according to this definition, e-Wastes include many categories such as but not limited to large and small household appliances, IT and telecommunication equipment, photovoltaic panels, electrical and electronic tools, and medical devices except for infected products. This training course helps understand the consequences of mismanagement of electronic wastes. We live in a world full of electronics. It is expected to increase due to rapid rates of economic development associated with escalated levels of well-being and the growing number of populations using electronic devices.

This Energy Training Centre training course will highlight the following: 

  • The meaning of e-Waste
  • The different categories of e-Waste
  • Why do we need to manage electronic wastes
  • The profile of electronic wastes generation
