Abstract

Environmental friendly laws such as Restriction of Hazardous Substance (RoHS) and Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) have changed the way reverse supply chains operate. The aim of the recyclers is to salvage as much of value from the e-waste, however time delays in inspection and categorizing the product can affect the recovered value. This work studies the effect of time delays on the electronic waste (e-waste) and its value. By making the reverse supply chain responsive time delays can be shortened. The loss of salvageable value can be significantly reduced if different elements in supply chain conduct coordinated field-testing, thus making recycling effective. ©2008 IEEE.
