Strategy for Recycling Emerging E-Waste——Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Products
Taiwan, as a major exporter, of Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) products to the world, produces significant amount of industrial waste from LCD production and creates the concern of resource recycling. In addition, the applications of LCDS to consumer electronic are products more and more widespread around the world, increasingly producing LCD related wastes when these products come to the end of life. Therefore the huge amount of LCD waste is in fact from two sources, manufacturers and households. For the study process, we first selected five LCD products for further investigation: LCD TVs, monitors, laptop computers, cellular phones and digital cameras. The probabilities of discarding and annually generated numbers of units of these five products were then estimated based on governmental statistics and past research. Besides, through onsite visiting and questionnaires for recycling plants as well as LCD product manufacturers, two recycling strategies were proposed. For the short term, a procedure composed of dissembling, shredding and glass recycling for the use of green construction materials is recommended by our study. For the long run, we suggested the maximization of recycling profit as the target of the recycling process which is a process of dissembling, shredding, ITO recovery and glass recycling.
