E-waste management and handling in India: Modeling of enablers (drivers) using an interpretive structural Modeling (ISM)

Abstract: 

The aim of this article is to analyze the interaction of various enablers (drivers) in management and handling of e-waste in India, which paves the way for an efficient e-waste management either by effective recycling/reuse or through safe and secure disposal for sustainable development. After review of literature on e-waste management in India and other countries, major driving factors of e-waste management have been identified. The literature review coupled with the experts’ opinion revealed during various field visits was instrumental in developing the relationship matrix, which is further used in the development of an Interpretive Structural Model (ISM).
