*Waste resulting from electronics, typically [[Multi Layer PCBs]] , and electrical componets themselves, but also including:
**[[Batteries]]
**[[Etchants]]
**[[PCBs]]
**[[Metal Recyclables]] and [[Plastic Recyclables]] from wires etc in the production process, and device dissasembly
**Display componets such as [[LEDs]] and [[LCDs]]
**Vacuum Tube Displays (Which are mainly glass, but also contain lead)
**[[Florescent Lights]] (especially [[CFLs]] ) contain [[Mercury]]
**Intrestingly, if collected on a commercial/industrial scale, and used as [[RDF]] with post use recovery of valuables, things such as disposable wipes and towels used for electronics can contain a non-negligable amount of copper/gold, and this usage can help power [[E-Waste Recycling]] plants, especially in areas with large amounts of enarby electronics factories
*It is a common, and rapidly growing volume of [[Hazardous Waste]]
*The health concerns are mainly [[Heavy Metals]] various other toxic metals, and more conventional toxic chemicals such as some used for [[Fire Retardand Coatings]] and other adjacent uses found inside electronics other than electrical componets themself
