TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored a range of product life extension strategies and concluded that tailored approaches are needed to determine when to apply which product life-extension strategy and how to apply them.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the first comprehensive assessment of e-waste volumes, their corresponding impacts and management status on a global scale using an internationally-adopted measuring framework that has been developed by the Partnership on Measuring ICT for Development.

TL;DR: The Bo2W philosophy can serve as a pragmatic and environmentally responsible transition before establishment of end-processing facilities in developing countries is made feasible by adjusting to local conditions related to operational scale, level of centralized operations, dismantling depth, combination with mechanical processing and optimized logistics to international end-processors.

TL;DR: An advanced, flexible and multivariate Input-Output Analysis (IOA) method is proposed, which links all three pillars in IOA to construct mathematical relationships between various data points to increase the reliability of e-waste estimates compared to the approach without data processing.

TL;DR: The QWERTY/EE concept as discussed by the authors addresses recyclability and eco-efficiency of take-back and recycling of consumer electronic products, a topic currently receiving large international attention.
