<p>The increasing demand and production of electrical components have introduced significant challenges, particularly regarding raw material scarcity and the environmental impact of discarded semiconductors. This review critically examines the novel movements in electrical production through the lens of the 12 principles of green chemistry, with a strong focus on contributing to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Each stage of the production process—mining, extraction, pre-processing, and manufacturing—was analyzed for potential improvements that could lead to greener and more economical practices. Environmentally friendly alternatives were proposed for raw material acquisition, while the production phase emphasized using cleaner materials, such as organic and biomass-based substances. Additionally, fabrication methodologies were optimized to incorporate sustainable chemical treatments. A comprehensive analysis of global recycling trends, with particular attention to temporal and sectoral developments, was conducted. The review also introduces innovative recycling techniques to replace outdated, harmful methods, thereby addressing one of the most critical aspects of sustainable electrical production. This paper aims to provide a roadmap for industry stakeholders and policymakers to enhance the sustainability of electrical production processes and mitigate their environmental impact.</p> Graphical Abstract <p></p>
