The usage of electronic items and microchips in home appliances, transportation systems, office equipment, industrial instruments, and other devices has increased dramatically during the past few decades. As a result, it is becoming difficult to safely dispose of the enormous volume of E-waste globally. E-waste production is thought to be between 20 and 50 million tons annually worldwide. E-waste is also growing at a pace of 4-5% globally. E-waste is increasing by 25% annually in Bangladesh. In Bangladesh, a considerable study in this area is needed to find solutions to the present E-waste problem and the related health issue. The current study examined Bangladesh's E-waste management practices and discovered weak E-waste management practices. The majority of the circuits and microchips gathered are transferred to other nations for recycling. Just 25% of E-waste is collected; this percentage should be increased by using an efficient management strategy. Bangladesh is where the majority of recovered photovoltaic cells from used batteries are produced. Most of the Photovoltaic cells of waste batteries are being recycled in Bangladesh. The study also conducted an analysis of treatment/recycling cost and their economic benefits. The net benefit was found 243.80 million USD, which will surely play a pivotal role in the economy of the country. This outcome can inspire prospective stockholders to launch a brand-new recycling operation. Finally, the report presents management recommendations for effectively managing the expanding E-waste.
