E-Waste Recycling & Occupational Health in Sub-Saharan Africa

Abstract

Synthetic dataset modelling health outcomes among informal e-waste recyclers and nearby communities across three site-scale scenarios in SSA. Agbogbloshie, Ghana — the world's largest informal e-waste site — exemplifies the exposure: open burning of cables and plastics releases lead, cadmium, chromium, PAHs, dioxins, and brominated flame retardants. Workers and children face respiratory damage, heavy metal poisoning, dermal injuries, and DNA damage with virtually no PPE or health surveillance.

Scenarios

Mega-Site West Africa: Agbogbloshie-type large-scale informal site with ~215,000 tonnes/yr throughput.
Medium Site Urban: Lagos/Nairobi-type medium urban recycling markets.
Small Dispersed Sites: Smaller city informal operations with lower but widespread exposure.

Parameterization Evidence

Parameter	Value	Source	Year
Agbogbloshie = world's largest informal e-waste site	Site context	Pure Earth / Blacksmith Institute	2013
Ghana imports ~215,000 tonnes secondhand electronics/yr	Volume	worstpolluted.org	2019
Workers exposed to Pb, Cd, Cr, Ni, Hg (biomonitoring)	Metals	PubMed 27858271 (Agbogbloshie pilot)	2017
Elevated blood metals in workers vs controls	Biomarkers	PMC8287752	2021
Respiratory symptoms & reduced FEV1 in burning workers	Respiratory	PMC7084368	2020
Children near sites: elevated BLL, DNA damage	Child health	PMC8392572	2021
No PPE/environmental protection in informal recycling	Safety gap	ScienceDirect (Agbogbloshie Pb study)	2024
Most SSA countries lack e-waste legislation	Regulation	ScienceDirect (SSA e-waste review)	2025

Validation

The 8-panel validation report covers: blood lead distributions, respiratory outcomes, elevated biomarker prevalence, worker role distributions, processing methods, PPE/safety practices, dermal/ocular outcomes, and DNA damage/kidney/child developmental effects.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/ewaste-recycling-health", "mega_site_west_africa")

Limitations

Synthetic data; not for clinical decision-making.
Metal biomarker levels modelled as log-normal approximations.
Does not capture mixture toxicity or synergistic effects of co-exposures.
PPE rates are conservative estimates from limited field studies.
