논문 초록 (Abstract)
As a result of the continuous release of new electronic devices, existing electronic devices are quickly made obsolete andrapidl y become electronic waste (e-waste). Because e-waste contains a va riety of metals, information about those metalswith the potential for substantial environmental impact should be provided to manufactu rers, recyclers, and disposers to proactively reduce this impact. This study assesses the resource and toxicity (i.e., cancer, noncancer, and ecotoxicity) potentials of various heavy metals commonly found i n e-waste from laptop computers, liquid-crystal display (LCD) moni tors, LCD TVs, plasma TVs, color cathode ray tube (CRT) TVs, and cell phones and then evaluates such potentials using life cycleimpact-base d methods. Resource potentials derive primarily from Cu, Sb, Ag, and Pb. Toxicity potentials derive primarily from Pb, Ni, and Hg for c ancer toxicity; from Pb, Hg, Zn, and As for noncancer toxicity; and from Cu, Pb, Hg, and Zn for ecotoxicity. Therefore, managing these hea vy metals should be a high priority in the design, recycling, and dispo sal stages of electronic devices. Integr Environ Assess Manag 2016;12:36 4-370. (c) 2015 SETAC
