Ignition and other fire-related incidents have been increasing at municipal waste treatment small electrical electronic equipment (WEEE) recycling facilities in Japan. To understand the current status of lithium-ion battery (LIB)-caused ignition to provide information necessary for countermeasures, we conducted interviews facilities, did real-time monitoring a facility, surveyed LIB mixed non-combustible waste. Several had more than 0.1 per tonne bulky collected FY2020. These accidents were...
We estimated the material flow of used PCs in Japan, both before and after enforcement a household PC recycling system, by minimizing errors data. The number reused country exported as secondhand were also estimated.
The Japanese recycling law for electrical home appliances was fully enforced as of April 2001. Although there have been various disputes and criticisms concerning the law, both before since enforcement, majority not based on actual data. Now that has active four years, its effectiveness can be assessed empirically rather than just theoretically. This study therefore conducted an empirical assessment scrutinizing framework selecting target items to assessed. results were follows. (A:...
使用済家電の国内フローや中古品輸出量の現状と課題を明らかにするために,家電 4 品目に加えて携帯電話などの小型家電を取り上げて,国内フローの検討状況を考察し,中古品輸出の推定方法の検討と結果を議論した。家電 品目の国内フローは,買替促進策の影響を考慮した排出台数の推定が課題であり,消費者や小売業者からの引渡し先などについて,再検討を行うのが望ましい。また,中古品輸出量の推定のために,貿易統計やマスバランス (国内フロー) を利用した方法などをレビューした。中古品輸出量の把握のためには,貿易統計は品目によって限界があることを考慮し,できるだけ国内フローによる推定も行って補足するのが望ましい。2011 年の中古のブラウン管 (CRT) テレビの主たる仕向け先はベトナム,フィリピン,マカオであり,携帯電話の場合は香港,アフガニスタンであった。資源保全と不適正輸出防止の観点から,今後も輸出動向には注意する必要がある。
