  Disposal of E-Wastes Containing Lead by Deep Geological Repository
  Author(s): Franklin Joseph Selvan*
  
  The disposal of e-waste containing lead has been one of the many crucial challenges in the field of e-waste disposal. This project deals with curating a new methodology for disposing e-waste containing lead through a deep geological repository. The lead waste would be buried few meters below the ground level in an enclosed container, thereby preventing interaction between its surroundings. This particular idea was derived from the disposal of nuclear waste through a similar procedure using deep geological repository. The procedure is also suggested to be one of the safest methods for disposing nuclear wastes. Lead waste from electronics tend to contain harmful acids which can contaminate the environment leaving behind harmful residue. The various steps needed for the establishment of a deep geological repository have been studied. The conventional method for disposing e-waste containi.. View more»
