According to Mohd S,. Raszlin,. (2020) The purpose of this study is to convert wind
energy from air conditioning exhaust into kinetic energy and electricity. The research
focuses on designing an air exchanger device (AED) to generate electricity from
waste air conditioning exhaust. The AED uses wind energy, following the concept of
a wind turbine, and is designed using materials like voltage regulator, dynamo,
voltage boost converter, mini fan, diode, capacitor, rechargeable battery, and shaft.
The AED generates high voltage, which can be stored in a rechargeable battery and
light LEDs. This design can save electricity for a single house, reducing global
consumption.

According to Anna O,. (2019) The purpose of this article the digital age has been
accompanied by a tsunami of E-waste exported from developed countries to
developing countries and economies in transition around the world. Global attention
to the problems of E-waste first began with the discovery of mountains of E-waste in
the village of Guiyu of southeastern China over 15 years ago. Obsolete computers
were primitively and crudely recycled, resulting in extensive levels of environmental
contamination consisting of a cocktail of pollutants which included heavy metals and
persistent organic pollutants. The handling of E-waste became an emerging issue
and thereafter problems similar to that of Guiyu became mirrored in other E-waste
dumping grounds in other countries. This chapter reviews the contaminant levels in
the environment and the adverse impacts on human health due to E-waste recycling.

According to Sangita A,. et al (2023) The purpose of this article is to show that
Electronic waste, has a significant global value that poses a significant challenge in
proper disposal due to its hazardous elements. It is generated in various sectors,
including homes, schools, and workplaces. To reduce the burden on health and the
ecosystem, scientific treatment is crucial. Biological methods, such as bioleaching,
biosorption, bioaccumulation, biotransformation, and biomineralization, are preferred
over traditional cleanup techniques due to their low capital expenditure and
attractive design. E-waste is an excellent secondary source of precious metals,
requiring safe and environmentally friendly treatment.

According to Dumitrita I,.et al (2018) This study aims to Assessment of the waste
electrical and electronic equipment management systems profile and sustainability in
developed and developing European Union countries The evaluation of electrical and
electronic equipment (WEEE) waste management systems from industrialized
nations (Germany, Sweden, and Italy) and developing nations (Romania and
Bulgaria) is covered from 2007 to 2014. Indicators linked to the collection,
transportation, and treatment phases of the WEEE life cycle represent the profiles of
the WEEE management systems. The efficiency of WEEE treatment alternatives is
highlighted by the greenhouse gas efficiency indicator, which is displayed along with
the sustainability of national WEEE management systems in terms of greenhouse
gas emissions. The essential components of the country comparisons are the
presence or development of appropriate WEEE management practices, the overall
performance of waste management, and robust versus weak economies.

Based on Juliya S,. et al (2017) This study aims to design and implement Radio
Frequency controlled miniature fan. Fan is one of the unavoidable electronic
equipment in everyday life. The presence of a fan in a house, office or school is not
considered as a luxury on the other hand it is included in the basic requirement.
Here the facility of ordinary fan is increased by making it controlled by a remote. In
a remote controlled table fan, a remote is used to regulate the speed of fan and to
adjust its position. Radio Frequency (RF) remote can be used for controlling speed
and to swing the fan to a desired direction.

Based on Bagiyo C, Et al(2020) this article reports the experimental study on cabin
cooling system for parked car under direct sunlight by applying a mini air cooler and
exhaust fan powered by a solar cell on small car Bajaj Qute RE60. Two
thermocouples were installed inside and outside the cabin to monitor the
temperature for 7 hours, expressing daytime heat conditions. The results showed
that this cooling system could reduce the temperature to 10 K by removing 8982 kJ
(0.356 kW) of heat. In conclusion, this prototype is very promising to be developed
and if implemented on a larger scale will reduce car interior damage while parking
under direct sunlight.

Based on Chatterjee S., et al. (2012) this study aim to Electronics waste is a
significant global issue, with e-waste accumulation and recycling being a concern in
developing countries due to hazardous materials. Recycling e-waste through
appropriate technologies is profitable, but the current recycling costs are not viable.
This article proposes an outsourcing model where equal participation of the
organized and unorganised sectors is ensured to make the e-waste management
business profitable. The unorganised sector will focus on collection, disassembly, and
segregation of e-waste, while the organized sector will concentrate on processing
PCBs to extract precious metals. The segregated materials can be managed through
conventional recycling practices, while the unorganised sector can sell the PCBs to
organized recyclers. This approach eliminates unhygienic practices in developing
countries, stops pollution, and protects worker health. Once the outsourced model is
established, the recycling of e-waste business will be viable, ensuring higher metal
recovery and minimum landfill.

Wang, R., & Xu, Z.(2014) this study aim to A study using x-ray fluorescence (XRF)
spectrometry has found that bromine is present in a range of plastic consumer
products, with the highest concentrations found in small appliances predating 2005.
The study also found that bromine was present in items of jewellery, coffee stirrers,
and other non-electronic items, often associated with the presence of silver and
lead. The findings suggest that the widespread recycling of electronic plastic waste is
possible, as most Br-contaminated items are black. However, disposal by
conventional municipal means may expose BrFRs to the environment and humans.
The study also discusses the recycling of non-metallic fractions (NMFs) from waste
electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), which are a significant portion of WEEE
waste. The study reviews methods and technologies for recycling plastics and glass,
focusing on the intractable NMFs from WEEE. The pyrolysis technology has the
lowest energy consumption, but the containing of BFRs makes the process
problematic. Supercritical fluids and gasification technology have a potentially
smaller environmental impact but higher energy consumption.

According to Keshav P. et al (2020) This study aim circular economy is promising for
managing electronic products and e-waste, aligning with sustainable resource
management goals. The collective effort of businesses, consumers, and governments
is crucial for establishing circular systems. Behavioral sciences can be integrated to
facilitate e-waste management, leveraging consumer behavior to promote pro-
environmental behaviors and drive positive change. Identifying opportunities for
behavioral interventions in e-waste management contributes to a more circular
economy. Understanding consumer behavior is essential for developing strategies for
responsible consumption, waste reduction, and effective e-waste management
practices.
