Abstract

Namen prispevka: Namen prispevka je predstaviti električne in elektronske odpadke ter problematiko, ki jo s seboj prinašajo. Tovrstni odpadki so najhitreje rastoč mednarodni problem, ki se ga mora posameznik zavedati. S prispevkom želimo bralcu predstaviti dokaj nepoznano področje e-odpadkov. Metode: V prispevku je bila uporabljena analiza primarnih in sekundarnih virov, vključno s kratkim pregledom mednarodnih in nacionalnih predpisov o urejanju področja elektronskih in električnih odpadkov. Ugotovitve: E-odpadki so večplasten problem, ki zadeva številne akterje, vključene v postopek ravnanja z e-odpadki. Toksičnost e-odpadkov negativno vpliva na človeka in naravo, kljub temu pa se velike količine e-odpadkov neustrezno reciklira z namenom pridobivanja dragocenih kovin. E-odpadki pa po drugi strani predstavljajo izziv za države, saj jih združujejo in povezujejo v mreže, ki se borijo zoper naraščanje e-odpadkov in z njim povezane kriminalitete. Omejitve/uporabnost raziskave Analiza prispevka o električnih in elektronskih odpadkih nam daje osnovo za nadaljnje raziskovanje preučevanega problema, s katerim se moramo učinkovito soočiti, saj postaja grožnja človeku in naravi. Izvirnost/pomembnost prispevka: Prispevek strukturirano prikazuje področje električnih in elektronskih odpadkov. Bralcu ponuja kratek vpogled v razumevanje problema e-odpadkov ter groženj in izzivov, ki jih prinaša. Prispevek obravnava temo, ki je v Sloveniji slabo poznana in raziskana.

Secondary title:	Electrical and Electronic Waste – a Threat and a Challenge for a Human
Secondary abstract:	Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to present the electrical and electronic waste and also problems caused by these waste. The electrical and electronic waste (shorter e-waste) is one of the fastest growing global problem we have to confront with. Our intent is to introduce a quite unknown area of the e-waste to a reader. Design: An analysis of the primary and secondary sources, including a short review of international and national regulations regarding the management of electrical and electronic waste, was used in the paper. Findings: E-waste is multilayered problem, concerning many actors involved in e-waste circle. E-waste toxicity has a negative impact on human and nature. Regardless this fact the enormous quantities of e-waste are improperly recycled in order to recover valuable metals. On other hand, e-waste is a challenge for countries because it unites and connects them into networks, which fight against the growing quantities of e-waste and its criminality. Practical Implications: The analysis of electrical and electronic waste presents the basis for further more in-depth research of studied problem, which is a threat to human and nature. This is the main reason we have to confront this problem effectively. Originality/Value: The paper structurally presents the area of electrical and electronic waste. It offers a short insight into understanding of the e-waste problem, its threats and challenges. The paper deals with a topic that is poorly known and researched in Slovenia.
