With a huge increase in the development of electronic industries, the old generating devices are put in the e-waste category. Due to which the price of the old devices is getting lowered that the actual content of the device. Considering old age television, they are sold at the price of nothing although it has valuable components like liquid crystal panel, various PCD (Printed Circuit Boards), CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Light). Backlight, fly back transformed and many more components are reusable and has more valuable significations. The objective of such program is to carry out the amount of money that can be carried out after knowing the valuable part of old age television. And finally, the importance of old age television and the reusable parts will be understood in this report implementation.

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
Abstract: This abstract introduces the increasing problem of e-waste generated by the rapid advancements in the electronics industry. It highlights the low resale value of old televisions despite containing reusable components like LCD panels and PCBs, emphasizing the potential economic benefits of recycling these devices. The study aims to quantify the recoverable value from old televisions and to demonstrate their importance and the value of their reusable parts.
Introduction: This chapter provides a broad overview of the growing global e-waste problem, particularly focusing on India's significant contribution and low recycling rate. It discusses the environmental and health hazards associated with improper e-waste handling and the economic potential of responsible recycling. The chapter highlights the dominance of the informal sector in e-waste management in India and the need for a more formal, environmentally sound approach. The introduction emphasizes the economic, environmental, and social implications of effective e-waste management.
E-Waste: This section defines e-waste as obsolete technology replaced by newer systems. It explains that the cost of older technology is higher than newer devices due to heavier components and more expensive materials. The chapter then details the evolution of television technology, from Direct-to-Home (DTH) and plasma panel technologies to LCD, LED, and OLED displays, illustrating how each generation contributes to the e-waste stream. It also shows how the rapid changes in television technology contribute to the ever-growing amount of electronic waste.
Television Technology Evolution: This section traces the evolution of television technology, from the relatively simple early models to the sophisticated modern-day screens (LCD, LED, OLED). It discusses the increased consumer choice and visual quality in contemporary televisions, contrasting this with the limited options available in earlier decades. The section also examines how the convergence of television with other technologies has expanded its functionality, and discusses factors affecting the way people consume television such as the role of the internet and mobile devices.
Recycling and Reuse of Old Televisions: This chapter focuses on the potential for recycling and reusing old televisions. It describes the valuable components within older televisions, such as CRTs, copper wiring, and various circuit boards. The chapter also considers the possibility of donating functional televisions to community organizations. It addresses the potential for reclaiming value from the discarded televisions which are often simply disposed of, and highlights the value of these components compared to the low price they fetch when sold to scrap dealers. It also considers the emerging value of older televisions as they gradually gain "antique" status.
