Report ID : 1662 | Published : 2024-03-20 | Pages: 180 | Format: PDF/EXCEL

The Global E-Waste Management Market Size is valued at 61.32 billion in 2022 and is predicted to reach 216.01 billion by the year 2031 at a 15.21% CAGR during the forecast period for 2023-2031.

E-waste is discarded electrical or electronic equipment. This includes both working and damaged items tossed in the waste or contributed to a charity merchant such as Goodwill. Increasing health risks, such as pneumonia, renal damage, and Wilson's disease, exacerbate the need for effective scrap management techniques. Additionally, the availability of precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and gallium makes electronic scrap recycling an appealing and realistic choice. These elements are expected to have a beneficial impact on market growth. Furthermore, the growing middle-income population in developing nations, combined with altering consumer preferences, is causing the quick replacement of older versions of electronic products with newer versions.
