The Exploring of Electronic Waste Recycling in Chongqing

. As a resource, electronic waste has considerable recycling value, while with the high requirements of recycling technical, if e-waste is not properly handled, the resource would become a hazard. As the largest developing country in the world, China will be one of the largest producers of electronic waste because of its extensive use of electronic products [1], but the recycling of electronic waste is still a problem that has not been completely solved. In order to solve the problem caused by electronic waste, Chinese government has promulgated relevant laws, and many scholars have given their insights to solve such a problem. By on-the-spot investigation, combined with the theoretical research of predecessors, this paper tries to find out the crux of the difficulty in recycling electronic waste in Chongqing, a fast developing city of China. At present, the recycling rate of electronic waste in Chongqing is lower than developed countries and the recycling procedure is not standardized, which are caused by many reasons. Therefore, it needs the participation of governments, enterprises and citizens to solve the problems of electronic waste recycling in Chongqing.
