摘要

The term 'electronic equipment' refers to, and includes equipment, which is dependent on electric currents or electromagnetic fields in order to operate, and contains a hard-drive or significant electronic components/printed circuit board. E-waste is therefore any item of discarded electronic equipment, regardless of value or condition (operational or non-operational). This paper briefly introduces the current issues surrounding the management of electronic wastes (e-wastes) within Australia and describes the approach taken at Griffith University, Queensland, for their management as part of a 'sustainable campus' regime. The Griffith approach includes the formulation of an e-waste policy, which sought to address the key factors including; definitions, legal requirements (including guidelines for the disposal of assets and consumerables), data and software security, protection of the environment, and social responsibility. The policy was supported by an accompanying report entitled 'Processing and Treatment of Electronic Waste Generated from Computers within Griffith University'. The report identified institutional regimes which may impede optimal resource recovery and discussed the adequacy of current organisational data relating to electronic equipment. Ten recommendations were formulated to identify how resource efficiencies could be optimised to positively progress economic, environmental and social standards. These recommendations include the identification of stakeholders (internal and external), opportunities for collaboration, green purchasing guidelines and new suitable recording and auditing regimes, which included the formulation of key performance indicators to monitor progress. The recommendations from that report have been presented within this paper as an aid to other organisations wishing to review their own practices.
