The status and progress of resource utilization technology of e-waste pollution in China

In this paper, the current status and the characteristics of e-waste were presented. The hazards of electronic wastes, significance of their recycle, resource utilization technology at home and aboard are summarized in this paper. Several recycling methods were introduced such as recycling of metals, plastics and glass, etc. The way of comprehensive utilization to e-waste in China was pointed out.
