What is E-waste?
E-waste can be defined as the disposal created by discarded
electronic devices and components as well as substances involved
in their manufacture and production.
E-waste is a term used to cover almost all types of electrical and
electronic equipment (EEE) that has or could enter the waste
stream. Although e-waste is a general term, it can be considered to
cover TVs, computers, mobile phones, white goods (e.g. fridges,
washing machines, dryers etc), home entertainment and stereo
systems, toys, toasters, kettles – almost any household or business
item with circuitry or electrical components with power or battery
supply.
Effect of E-waste on environment
Element Effect on environment
Lead Damage to central nervous systems, blood system, Kidney damage Effect brain development on children
Chromium Asthmatic bronchitis.
Cadmium Toxic irreversible effects on human on health. Accumulates in kidney and liver.
Mercury Chronic damage to the brain.
Plastics including PVC
Burning produces dioxin. It causes Reproductive and developmental problems; Immune systems damage; Interfere with regulatory hormones
Why E-waste management ?
Pollution of ground water.
Acidification of soil.
Emission of toxic fumes and gases.
Releases toxic substances into the air.
Introduction
Rapid changes in technology, changes in media (tapes, software, MP3),
falling prices, and planned obsolescence have resulted in a fast-growing
surplus of electronic waste around the globe.
Display units (CRT, LCD, LED monitors), Processors (CPU, GPU, or APU
chips), memory (DRAM or SRAM), and audio components have different
useful lives. Processors are most frequently out-dated (by software no
longer being optimized) and are more likely to become "e-waste", while
display units are most often replaced while working without repair
attempts, due to changes in wealthy nation appetites for new display
technology.
Continue…..
An estimated 50 million tons of E-waste are produced each year. the
amount of e-waste being produced - including mobile phones and
computers - could rise by as much as 500 percent over the next decade in
some countries, such as India. The Environmental Protection Agency
estimates that only 15-20% of e-waste is recycled, the rest of these
electronics go directly into landfills and incinerators
Up to 60 elements can be found in complex electronics. Electrical waste
contains hazardous but also valuable and scarce materials.
Objectives:
Increase the strength of concrete.
Make light weight concrete.
To use e-waste in concrete so its help to reduce environment
effect.
Literature Review
1) Studies on Concrete containing E plastic waste
Lakshmi.R 1 Nagan.S 2
Conclusion:
This study intended to find the effective ways to reutilize the hard plastic
waste particles as concrete aggregate. The compressive strength and split
tensile strength of concrete containing e-plastic aggregate is retained more or
less in comparison with controlled concrete specimens. However strength
noticeably decreased when the e plastic content was more than 20%.
2)Replacement of Natural sand in concrete by waste product:A State of Art (Bahoria B.V., Parbat D.K. and Naganaik P.B.)
Conclusion:
The partial replacement of river sand with 20% CGF is
recommended for use in concrete production for use in rigid
pavement. Where crushed granite is in abundance and river sand
is scarce, the complete replacement river sand with CGF is
recommended for use in low to moderately trafficked roads.
3) Waste Management: Solid, Liquid, Hazardous, Bio-medical and Electronic Waste PLAS-CRETE: Manufacture of Construction Blocks with shredded PET
Conclusion:
This study indicates that shredded PET and HDPE are viable
aggregates for the production of a lightweight construction
material. Results obtained indicated that the plastic aggregate
blocks produced, were lighter than the normal aggregate concrete;
there was an overall 22% reduction in weight.
4) Application of CNC Waste with Recycled Aggregate in Concrete
Mix(Awanish Kumar Shukla)
Conclusion:
It is found that up to 50% replacement of natural coarse aggregate by
recycled coarse aggregate (in addition to 2% CNC lathe waste) increases
the compressive strength. There was 11% increment in compressive
strength.
5)Electronic Waste Management in India –issues and strategies (Kurian Joseph)
Conclusion:
Solid waste management, which is already a mammoth task in India, is
becoming more complicated by the invasion of e-waste, particularly
computer waste. There exists an urgent need for a detailed assessment of
the current and future scenario including quantification, characteristics ,
existing disposal , practices, environnemental impacts etc.
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION
Collection of E-waste :
E-waste comprises of wastes generated from used electronic devices
and house hold appliances which are not fit for their original intended
use and are destined for recovery, recycling or disposal. Such wastes
encompasses wide range of electrical and electronic devises such as
computers, hand held cellular phones, personal stereos, including large
household appliances such as refrigerators, air conditioners etc.

6. Split tensile strength test
7. Flexural strength test
Cement
cement is a fine, grey powder. Cement is mixed with water and materials
such as sand, gravel, and crushed stone to make concrete. The cement
and water form a paste that binds the other materials together as the
concrete hardens. The choice of the type of cement depends upon the
requirements of performance at hand. The most commonly used
cement is called ordinary Portland cement. Variation in the cement
quality will cause the concrete compressive strength to vary more than
any other single material

Fine Aggregate
The sand used for the work was locally procured and conformed to
Indian Standard Specifications IS: 383-1970. The sand was sieved
through 4.75 mm sieve to remove any particles greater than 4.75 mm.
The various other tests conducted are specific density, bulk density,
fineness modulus, water absorption and sieve analysis. The results are
given below in Table 3. The fine aggregated belonged to grading zone
II.

1. Specific Gravity 2.57
2. Fineness modulus 2.28
3. Grading zone II
Coarse Aggregate
The material which is retained on IS sieve no. 4.75 is termed as a coarse
aggregate. The crushed stone is generally used as a coarse aggregate. The
nature of work decides the maximum size of the coarse aggregate. Locally
available coarse aggregate having the maximum size of 20 mm was used in
this work. The aggregates were washed to remove dust and dirt and were
dried to surface dry condition. The aggregates were tested as per IS: 383-
1970.
