Electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) has become an essential part of everyday life. Its availability and widespread use have enabled much of the global population to benefit from higher standards of living. However, the way in which we produce, consume, and dispose of e-waste is unsustainable. Because of the slow adoption of collection and recycling, externalities such as the consumption of resources, the emission of greenhouse gases, and the release of toxic substances during informal recycling procedures? illustrate the problem to remain within sustainable limits. Even countries with a formal e-waste management system in place are confronted with relatively low collection and recycling rates. Almost 82.60 per cent of global E-waste is recycled informally in unorganized sectors. Phytoremediation is a sustainable and eco-friendly method that involves using plants to clean up contaminated environments, including soil, water, and air. In the context of e-waste management, phytoremediation has significant potential to mitigate the harmful effects of electronic waste by removing, stabilizing, or degrading pollutants, particularly heavy metals and other toxic compounds.
