A Working Definition of Electronic Device: An Electronic device is a product, a piece of equipment, and/or a mechanism utilizing electric circuits in which electron flow is controlled in a manner designed to serve a special purpose or perform a special function by the methods or principles of electronics. Examples are computers, data processing equipment, communications equipment, integrated circuits, semiconducutors, display devices, and other like products and equipment.

Working Definition of Electronics Recycling. Electronics recycling is defined as the diversion of end-of-life/surplus electronic devices from the waste stream by the re-use and/or recycling of electronic devices. It is essentially a front-end waste prevention process. A new model is needed for this process: Wastes are materials that do not have a cost-effective use based on a cost-benefit analysis. As shall latter be demonstrated, an appropriate costbenefit analysis reveals that in fact few electronic devices should be classified as waste. From: “Recycling Electronic Devices, Mc. Graw-Hill Recycling Handbook, 2 nd Edition”
A Working Definition Electronics Recycling System: An electronics recycling system is a cost-benefit controlled management process that utilizes end-oflife/surplus electronic devices as resources …to recover the greatest return from the materials at the lowest possible cost while complying with applicable envirionmental laws and regulations.
