For those non- mandatory recycling products, this program collects their basic information and studies the impacts to announce them as mandatory recycling items. Also, this program provides the estimations of waste amounts, recycling rates, and hazardous waste recycling standards for different products. In addition, this program completes a working plan to promote producer’s recycling responsibilities and to set priority. This program assists Taiwan Environmental Administration(TEPA) to organize related activities and negotiation meetings in plan implementation.
In the part of basic information collection of products, this program finds the following results:
1. Total 14 electrical and electronic products in WEEE six categories are studied, including , blenders(squeezers), electric ovens, microwave ovens, induction cookers, electric boilers, telephones, mobile phones, digital cameras, video cameras, hi-fi equipments, TV game equipments, vacuum cleaner, kitchen ventilators, and water coolers.
2. For those electrical and electronic products, most of them have 80%~90% material are recyclable.
3. Currently, the major disposal method of wastes of electrical and electronic products are collected by local EPB cleaning systems, and around 50%~60% wastes are collected through such channels.
In the part of promoting and implementing producer’s responsibilities in recycling systems and product priority setting, this program finds the following results:
1. Medicine containers and slab packaging containers should be listed as mandatory recycling items by TEPA.
2. For electrical and electronic products, we suggest to include “guarantee money mechanism” when developing the working plan to promote and implement producer’s responsibilities.
3. For electrical and electronic products, we also suggest the priority items for strengthening recycling systems are: wireless communication equipments, machines using air pressure and hydraulic pressure, home appliance, electrical heating equipments, image related equipments, and toys.
This program organized 6 negotiation meetings to collect opinions from manufacturers to assist TEPA to reach its goals to promote producer’s recycling responsibilities.
