Abstract

Highlights: [•] PBDEs were detected in the majority of e-waste. [•] PBDEs were found in TVs made in China after 1990. [•] The levels of ΣPBDEs in e-waste made in Japan far exceed the threshold limit of RoHS. [•] The inappropriate recycling and disposal of e-waste is an important source of PBDEs.
