    [China Epoxy Resin Industry Online] December 8, 2004, reported by the media due to serious environmental problems, Guiyu Town, Shantou, Guangdong Province, while continuing to pay close attention to comprehensive environmental management, spent vigorous efforts to carry out the dismantling of waste electronic appliances The planning work of the industry guides the development of the entire industry in a standardized and harmless direction.
    Today, Guiyu’s efforts have achieved initial results.
    The Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau agreed to set up a domestic waste electronic and electrical dismantling center in Guiyu Town.
    The recycling of epoxy resin from electronic waste has formed an industry in the local area.

    Guiyu, a place "famous at home and abroad" for the environmental pollution caused by the dismantling of waste electronic appliances, strives to fundamentally solve the problems of pollution control and development, and explore a sustainable development path.
    The recycling and dismantling of waste electronic appliances, as a recycling economy of resource reuse, has become Guiyu’s leading industry and the main source of income for thousands of local households.


    After years of development, a solid industrial chain has been formed from purchasing, dismantling, processing and generating renewable resources to sales.


    After the components are disassembled, the printed circuit board becomes a copper-clad board, which can now be recycled, and the copper can be smelted through crushing.
    Including epoxy resins can also be recycled, plastics can also be processed locally, and an industrial chain has been formed.

    In fact, although Guiyu does not have large-scale factory production, it is like a big factory as a whole, with multiple workshops in different forms.
    Although there are still some problems in the process, there are already industrial chain advantages, and the finished products have also formed a mature sales network, which is very worthy of recognition.
    According to experts from the China Epoxy Industry Association (
    color="#000000">), Guiyu has a very high utilization rate of electronic products, especially printed circuit board components, reaching more than 90%.
    Some even reach 100%.
    However, the recycling rate in developed countries abroad can only reach about 80%.
    This is an outstanding feature.
