Abstract :
In the U.S., e-waste could be the fastest growing component of the municipal solid waste. This trend is likely to continue given the rapid rate of technological progress, increased adoption and subsequent decreasing life spans of electronic products. This poster proposes the e-market for returned deposit system as an option for future e-waste management system in the U.S.
