China’s recycling industry is growing rapidly, driven by a low-cost labor force; in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, in particular, approximately 60% of the population is employed in recycling-related industries. This growth stems from China’s establishment as the “world’s factory” and the influx of large quantities of recyclable materials from around the globe. However, domestically, the increase in waste and the resulting environmental pollution are becoming increasingly severe, and there is a shortage of capacity to process waste from household appliances and electronic devices. In response, the Chinese government has implemented measures such as restricting the import of waste computers and home appliances into Guangdong Province and designating five coastal locations, including Tianjin, as "recycling towns," with the aim of improving technology at small-scale factories and reducing their environmental impact. With continued government support and stricter regulation s, China’s recycling industry is expected to develop while balancing economic growth with environmental protection.
