2. Dismantling activities introduce dust particles laden with flame retardants and heavy metals into the atmosphere, resulting in atmospheric pollution. These particles can either redeposit (wet or dry deposition) in close proximity to the emission source or, depending on their size, travel a great distance.
3. One of today's greatest obstacles is recycling e-waste. E-waste and the dangers it poses have become more apparent over time in a setting where globalisation and information...
