Electronic Waste Operations Standard (EWOS) - A Comprehensive Guide to Environmentally Responsible E-Waste Management

EWOS (Electronic Waste Operations Standard) is a standard for the proper management of electronic waste. It was developed by the Basel Action Network (BAN), a non-profit organization that works to prevent the illegal dumping of hazardous waste, including electronic waste, in developing countries.

The EWOS standard provides guidelines for the safe and environmentally responsible handling of electronic waste, including the proper disposal of hazardous materials such as lead, mercury, and cadmium. It also emphasizes the importance of recycling and reusing electronic components whenever possible, rather than simply discarding them as trash.

EWOS is designed to be a comprehensive standard that covers all aspects of electronic waste management, from collection and transportation to disassembly, sorting, and recycling. It is intended to provide a framework for companies and organizations to follow when managing electronic waste, and to help ensure that electronic waste is managed in an environmentally responsible manner.
