Manufacturing challenges are anticipated to become worse in the coming decades owing to global material and energy constraints combined with environmental issues associated with conventional processes. Addressing these difficulties calls for a significant amount of research to be conducted to establish robust new technologies that are cost-effective and energy efficient, while at the same time minimizing environmental pollution. The new concept of ‘microrecycling’ has been invented to enable sustainable processing of electronic waste (e-waste) to convert waste into products or inputs for other manufacturing systems. In this article, we review some of the standout emerging technologies that enable microrecycling to generate value-added materials from e-waste.

由于全球材料和能源的限制以及与传统工艺相关的环境问题，预计在未来几十年中制造挑战将更加严峻。为了解决这些困难，需要进行大量研究，以建立既经济高效又节能的健壮新技术，同时将环境污染降至最低。发明了“微循环”的新概念，以使电子废物（电子废物）的可持续处理能够将废物转化为产品或其他制造系统的投入。在本文中，我们回顾了一些杰出的新兴技术，这些技术可使微循环利用从电子废物中产生增值材料。
