Summary: | As the technologies and world economy continues to progress forward, an
increasing number of older technologies are becoming more obsolete and being
replaced with more sophisticated and innovative inventions. The problem arises when
the world is unable to meet the demand needed for managing and handling the process
of recycling the discarded old technologies which are known as e-wastes. This is
because the current process of dismantling and recycling the e-waste is costly and can
be damaging to the environment and human health. This study proposes a new method
of curbing the generation of e-waste by reusing and reselling used electronics through
a mobile application that focuses on the e-commerce of used electronics. Unlike the
traditional method of handling e-waste which is relying on consumers to make the
correct decision on selecting the right channel of e-waste recycling, the proposed
method aims to prevent the used electronics from becoming e-waste in the first place.
This study will discuss about the current flow of e-waste, the effects of e-wastes and
the development of the mobile application. This study will also conduct research on
the consumer perception on e-waste recycling and towards reusing second-hand
electronics sold on e-commerce platforms. |
