Resumo:
Technological waste, or Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment - WEEE - (REEE in Portuguese), when disposed improperly represents a huge risk for the environment, and consequently, for human beings. United Nations studies point out a critical scenario regarding the handling of these wastes in developing countries such as China and African countries. This occurs because European countries, the United States of America and even Brazil export tons of WEEE to these countries claiming a lower cost to recycle and supposedly and allegedly jobs being created in these waste receiving countries. Not long ago in Brazil, the electronic recycling waste chain did not exist in a structured form. Nowadays, some initiatives are found, but rather punctual, disperse and normally it becomes an onerous to those who wants to get rid of a post consumption product.
