Absrtact
Taiwan is a small and narrow island that lacks of various resources. Most industry goods and life necessaries have to rely on importing from other countries.Therefore, it’s very important and urgent to add more items into mandatory recycling and reuse regulations.This project, accordingly, aims at assisting EPA Recycling Fund Management Committee to do some feasibility analysis on listing new various household electronic products to recycling items by considering their recycling value and their degree to harm the environment. According to the survey of fundamental information (eg., public willingness to recycle, the cost of recycling and treatment, to estimate the quantity of output and waste ones, and its weight ratio of recycling and reuse parts to the entire one) from each item, the project summarizes the raw materials as references in the further survey questionnaire by adopting Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP).The next step is to choose the most appropriate treatment technology and to assess the capacity of current treatment plants. First of all, the project collected most treatment technologies from other countries. Under the cooperation with the treatment industry, the project then evaluated the treatment technologies for the prior items, summarized their worldwide treatment technologies, provided recommendation plans, and finally invited experts and scholars to address comments and advice regarding the capability of current treatment plants to digest the new listed recycling items. Besides, the project provides recommendation plans to treatment and facility standards.After checking with the current law and regulations, the project found that the current law and regulation need to be revised especially on storage, treatment, and recycling rate.In addition, in order to make the further auditing and accreditation process successful, the group of this project also has already provided a revised manual for auditing and accreditation.
