Electric vehicles (EVs) are increasingly being used for the benefit of the environment and to foster the development of a low-carbon circular economy. However, compared to internal combustion engine cars, spent EV batteries (WBEVs) constitute a different form of waste, and their recycling mechanism is still in its early stages. WBEV consumer willingness to recycle is an issue in a circular economy in which EV users should be WBEV recycling pioneers. The purpose of this article is to develop an analytical model for consumers’ desire to return WBEVs for recycling, based on the circular economy and consumer welfare, in order to investigate consumer incentives for the construction of a WBEV recycling system. PLS-SEM was used for the analysis, and the results revealed the following. First, both the perception of government policy and environmental attitudes have significant positive causal effects on consumers’ intentions to recycle. Second, the perception of benefits has a significant positive mediating effect on recycling intention, whereas the perception of loss has a significant negative mediating effect. Third, the multigroup analysis found that, with the exception of gender, the variables of age, income, education, area of residence, recycling experiences, and EV ownership all have substantial moderating impacts, although their routes and directions vary considerably. Recycling policies must be appropriate for consumers, and this has policy consequences for the circular economy. Environmental education and incentives should be provided to increase consumer knowledge and willingness to recycle. Big data might help with the design of a WBEV recycling system. It is necessary to create an intelligent recycling platform, cross-regional recycling collaboration, and smart logistics for WBEVs. Further, the battery refill mechanism of energy replenishment might encourage the recycling of WBEVs.

“…Most studies that investigated the factors influencing residents' willingness and behavior considered only one dimension; however, aside from the individual residents, the behavior of other stakeholders can also have an important impact on residents' participation in recycling. Therefore, here, we used previously conducted research [ 16 ] as a basis to construct an evolutionary game model assessing the interrelationship of key stakeholders in the Internet recycling of waste electronics, aiming to provide theoretical support for improving residents’ participation in Internet waste electronics recycling.…”

“…However, there are still concerns among consumers regarding information security issues and low participation in electronic product recycling. Therefore, based on previous research [ 16 ], this study attempts to answer the following key questions through the construction of a game model incorporating the government, Internet recycling companies, and residents: How will the behaviors of stakeholders in the Internet recycling network of waste electronics influence one another? What kind of strategy will lead to efficient Internet recycling of waste electronics while preventing the leakage of information?…”

“…Regardless of the field of activity that society faces, the demand for electrical and electronic equipment is constantly increasing, with even greater demand, which has resulted in the birth of a new generation of waste called waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) [2] [3]. WEEE is one of the fastest growing solid waste products in the world [4]. The "Global E-waste Statistics Partnership" (GESP) reported that the e-waste generated worldwide has increased by more than 21% in the last five years.…”

Electrical and electronic devices are becoming an increasingly important part of our society. In Africa, and in Senegal in particular, the handling and management of electronic and electrical equipment (EEE) that has reached the end of its life is mainly informal. This professional environment is characterized by the disintegration of the sector and the social heterogeneity that can be found there. The objective of this study is to assess the standard of living of electrical and electronic equipment waste handlers in the Dakar region, as well as their perception of their health. A survey was used to obtain information on sociodemographic background, living arrangements, perception of health status, and good practices to be implemented in case of work-related health problems. Life style, perception of general health and health problems were ranged as excellent, very good, good, average and poor. Informal recyclers in the Dakar region lived mainly in rooms and buildings as tenants (49.1%), or in family homes (48.4%) before starting this activity, and 51.2% continue to live in rooms and buildings as tenants compared to 41.4% who still live in a family home. The perception of health status ranged from poor to excellent, and 4.9% believe that they are limited in work due to a disability or health problem. Informal work is a heterogeneous phenomenon that makes research and policymaking particularly complex. There are several external factors within informal WEEE re-cyclers that can cause health prob-
