Abstract: The national distribution, recycling and disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment (e-waste) was proposed based on the distribution characteristicsof the electrical and electronic industry and possession of commonly used household appliances in China. Recycling and disposal facilities should be established in Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Guangdong, all of which have high levels of e-waste. The applicability of different mathematical models for forecasting the amount of e-waste was studied based on the specialty of the recyclingof e-waste in China. The Estimation Model was chosen to forecast the generation rule of e-waste in China, and the cost of recycling and disposal of e-waste was analyzed. It was proposed that the yearly processing capacity of the recycling and disposal facilities of e-waste in China should not be less than 2×10⁴and 5×10⁴ t, respectively. The number of the recycling and disposal facilities of e-waste in China should be less than 100 and preferably around 40.
