21st century: It is the period when humanity has made progress in the field of technology. Intensive development and use of techniques have led to changes not only in the economy but also in the socio-political and spiritual spheres of social life. However, this progress has brought with it devastating disasters such as e-waste which cause serious health and environmental pollution problems. E-waste is a type of waste that contains obsolete or non-functioning electronic and electrical devices. E-waste can present a high level of danger due to the presence of contaminants such as mercury, beryllium, cadmium, lead and brominated flame retardants, the release of which into the environment can lead to the formation of faults and pollution of the surrounding environment . Each country's methods for solving this problem are different but, in general, the goal is to reduce negative environmental impacts through recycling and reuse. However, of these two alternatives, recycling is less beneficial to the environment than reuse. Consequently, reuse should be prioritized in order to reduce environmental risk. Reuse is the possibility of selecting parts of manufactured goods that can be exposed to treatment through the determination of the characteristics of the waste and the extension of the use of electronic products or their components. This superior option allows people to use outdated equipment instead of discarding it. Consequently, this leads to advocating for an optimal usage time of a particular product that is economically and environmentally appropriate. Reuse is not only environmentally and economically beneficial, but also provides access to those who cannot afford new electronic equipment, such as low-income families, schools and nonprofit businesses.
