The safe handling of electronic and electrical waste (E-waste/WEE) is a growing concern in many nations' world. Particularly, developing nations have a variety of challenges regarding the creation, transboundary movement, and control of greenhouse gases. Examining the types of technology used to handle e-waste, evaluating the difficulties associated with implementing sustainable methods, and identifying the gaps across formal and informal e-waste employees were among the goals of the research. The following research inquiries were framed: What standard of state of the art is currently used to handle e-waste? What obstacles are preventing the implementation of sustainable innovations? The components of e-waste, its classification, worldwide and Indian e-waste circumstances, potential recoverable, recyclable, and hazardous materials discovered in e-waste, adverse effect on both the environment and human health best possible techniques, recycling, and regeneration used, as well as the risks to the environment and the workforce that they pose are all covered in this paper.
