| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 高階主管企管碩士班 === 102 === It continues to bring in new electric, electronic, and information related products due to rapid growth of the information industry associated with the creative technology development. The life cycle of these consumable products becomes shorter and shorter as the old ones are replaced by the new. Compounding with the factors of global population growth and the improved living standard and increased purchasing power of the new developed countries, the wastes generated are increasing year by year for the computers, mobile phones, and electric household products. Approximate 40 million tons of electronic waste are annually generated according to a report, entitled "Recycling and Reuse - Converting e-waste to Useful Resources", published by United Nations Environment Programme. Brazil, Mexico, India, and China are adversely impacted by the e-waste to the most severe degree.
In Taiwan the market for resources recovery is rather small. As results, the utilization rate of the treatment facility/equipment is generally low among the resources recovery companies. Most companies adopt the strategy of high-price-bidding for acquiring raw material and low-margin competition. This would increases the operation costs and reduces the profit for the companies and obviously it can’t be considered as a long term strategy for a sustainable growth company. Consequently a bottleneck is encountered for the progress of the green environment friendly resource recovery industry.
The purposes of this study are to assist Taiwanese resources recovery industry, utilizing the appropriate method and opportunity, to effectively expand its domestic and international markets and to create some value for the company. It is also the hope that, based on the conclusions drawn and suggestion made for this study, a green product market would be expanded and in the mean time the pollution problem associated with the e-waste would be solved. It is the warm wishes of the author.
