The 2015 edition of Electronics Recycling Asia, the premier electronics recycling conference in the Asia-Pacific region, will again explore the considerable challenges and bountiful opportunities in this sector.
Conference organizer ICM AG is hosting the 2015 Electronics Recycling Asia conference from November 10 – 13, 2015 at the Shangri-La Hotel Singapore.
As in prior events, the 2015 conference will feature speakers from Asia and around the world.
They will address a wide spectrum of topics pertaining to how to safely and profitably recycle end-of-life computers, office equipment, consumer electronics, cell phones and other devices.
Topics that are scheduled to be part of the programme include:
• manufacturer take-back schemes and recycling efforts
• government initiatives such as the Circular Economy policy in China
• processing technology advances and trends
• precious metals recovery
• battery recycling
• environmental and safety compliance
Again in 2015, ICM AG will be organizing optional recycling plant tours and will offer access to an exhibit area that features leading technology and service providers.
The conference is also offering additional workshops before and after the main event.
"Electronics Recycling Asia is the best conference for understanding the present policies and different recycling schemes for WEEE used in the EU, North America and Asian countries", says Hsiao Kang Ma, who is professor at the National Taiwan University and a frequent speaker at Electronics Recycling Asia.
Some 300 recyclers, OEM delegates and government policy makers are expected to attend the Electronics Recycling Asia 2015 conference.
Last year's event attracted delegates from more than 30 nations, including China, India, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore the United States and nations throughout Europe.
