Backgroud:

In order to implement the relevant requirements of China"s national implementation plan of the Stockholm Convention, effectively reduce the emission of persistent organic pollutants in the life cycle of electrical and electronic equipment, and protect the ecological environment, Foreign Environmental Cooperation Center/Ministry of Ecology and Environment (FECO/MEE), in cooperation with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), developed the Global Environment Facility (GEF) to reduce sustainability in the life cycle of electronic and electrical equipment through environmentally harmless management. Project "full demonstration of emissions of sexual organic pollutants and persistent toxic chemicals (POPs/PTS)". The Centre for external Cooperation and Exchange, as the national implementing agency of the project, is responsible for the overall coordination and management of the project. Through the whole life cycle analysis of electrical and electronic equipment, the project will carry out activities such as improvement of policy standards, strengthening of regulatory capacity, ecological design, recovery system and disposal technology demonstration.

Since the launch of the project in 2014, a great deal of work has been carried out in the environmentally harmless management and disposal technology of waste electrical and electronic equipment. At present, the project has provided policy, management and technical support to the three demonstration provinces (Tianjin, Jiangsu Province and Hubei Province). In addition, technical demonstration activities on environmentally harmless disassembly, processing and disposal technologies have been completed in five waste electrical and electronic equipment treatment enterprises. It includes: standardized disassembly of waste electrical and electronic equipment, technical demonstration of removing components from waste printed circuit board, demonstration of BAT/BEP technology for disposal of wet waste printed circuit board, demonstration of BAT/BEP technology for disposal of waste printed circuit board, waste motor, demonstration activities for further processing, like the dismantling of compressors and the preparation of imitation stone bricks from waste resin powder, the technical manuals for the disassembly of electronic waste, the removal of components from waste printed circuit boards, the treatment of wet waste printed circuit boards and the treatment of abandoned printed circuit boards by fire have been compiled. Cumulative standard disassembly and disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment about 64 million sets, comprehensive utilization of about 3500 tons of waste resin powder. In addition, the project carried out demonstration activities on the coordinated disposal and harmless management of waste cathode ray tube (CRT) lead cone glass by using both primary lead and recycled lead in three lead smelting enterprises, safe disposal of more than 13500 tons of CRT leaded glass to achieve the phased objectives of the project.

In order to efficiently implement the technical demonstration activities on the treatment and disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment in the project, before the end of the project, relevant units will be hired to sum up the policy, management and technical experience of the project, and to prepare national promotion plans and training materials, participate in the project promotion activities, promote the environmental harmless management and technical system of waste electrical and electronic equipment in China, and reduce the environmental emissions of POPs. At the same time, the situation and main needs of harmless management of waste electrical and electronic equipment in developing countries or regions around China are analyzed, develop experience in environmentally harmless management of waste electrical and electronic equipment and technical manuals on disposal and disposal suitable for developing countries to provide the necessary support for the next phase of the project"s demonstration of technological results in developing countries.

I. Work objectives

The main objective of this work is to refine the technical demonstration experience of the project, and to investigate the environmental harmless dismantling, processing and disposal technologies of typical waste electrical and electronic equipment disassembly enterprises and their provinces (municipalities) in addition to the demonstration provinces, preparation of national promotion plans, training materials and environmental harmless management experience and disposal technical manuals for waste electrical and electronic equipment suitable for developing countries. It will also assist in promoting the implementation of the National Promoting Plan and the dissemination of demonstration technology results in developing countries, so as to achieve the overall objectives of the project in an all-round way.
