Title
Electronic Waste Disposal In District Sarajevo
Abstract
This paper analyses the disposal problem of electronic waste in District Sarajevo (DS), Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H). It provides a brief overview of electronics development including analysis of the quantity of electronics presented in the present market. This analysis is specially focused on explaining how far the electronic development has come and how far is it supposed to go, in the future. It is a fact that electronic devices are overflowing the everyday life of an average citizen and because of the speed of their production and development their numbers are reaching critical figures. Materials found in electronic waste can be divided into two categories: material suited for recycling and material harmful for its surroundings. This paper explains several methods of electronic waste recycling. The recycling itself is explained from various points of view: legislatives, technological procedures, economical parameters, ecological goals and the most important one, the conscientiousness of the community involving the problem of recycling and preserving our natural habitat. This paper presents the analysis of the state of the disposal system concerning electronic waste in the DS, B&H. This district has around 400.000 citizens and it represents a good candidate for this type of analysis. Research shows that amount of electronic waste is concerning, and numbers describing the amount keep increasing. The legislatives concerning this problem, together with the technology used, are not sufficient to resolve this constantly evolving problem. The biggest problem is that the community awareness of this issue is nearly nonexistent.
