Abstract
Waste from electrical and electronic equipment(WEEE) is known as a very severe environmental problem,and also a problem of squandering metal resource.The advances in technologies for the recovery of these metal are reviewed in detail.The chemical,physical and biological methods are introduced and analyzed from the environmental sense.The development in this field in advanced countries is introduced.Finally,some advice is given for the recovery of WEEE in China.
