Circular Economy and Waste Management

Circular economy implementation blueprint

To facilitate sustainable use of resources and move towards circular economy, Yulon Motor has devised a resource recycling and reuse implementation plan to enable material sustainable circulation and waste reclamation in various stages from sourcing, waste production to recovery.

Circular economy implementation blueprint

Value enhancement of recycled IT materials

We have the Company’s obsolete public computers cleaned up, repaired and reset by the IT personnel, and the body parts changed, cleaned and disinfected to ensure the quality. These computers are then put up at an auction for employees at lower prices, and an additional hard disk drive for better performance is optional with an extra charge. A 1-month warranty is also included. Through this, we avoid the waste of obsolete company computers and offer a good opportunity for employees with needs to purchase a generalpurpose computer. The numbers of computers circulated in each year are stated below:

Instances of Sluggish Material and Scrap Disposal Actions and Benefits in 2022

Reduction in waste treatment cost

Implementation
Strategy
Solution Goal Effectiveness and Improvement Result
(Including: Instance)
Reduction of waste
packaging materials
  • 1. High-density foam – Looking for recycling opportunities and trying to discuss with the country of origin to change the material
  • 2. Reselling waste packaging materials for reuse in sales and services
A decrease of $650,000/year in packaging cost $795,200/year
($192,024 of the amount coming from sale of pallet carbon boxes)

Changing sale in batch to sale by material (iron/aluminum/waste wire/plastics) to increase the value of recycling $1,725,449 $2,411,546
Reasonable
recovery price
  • 1. Employing new recycle service providers to create price comparison effect and increase the resource recovery price
  • 2. Renegotiating the price with recycle service providers for the resources for which no recovery price is available, and changing gratuitous recovery to trading upon consideration
$2,300,000 $4,269,000

Instances on reduction of polluted process waste (sludge and waste paint)

  • Waste paint is placed in a shelter house to protect it from being exposed to the rain, which may bring it more weight. The water content is controlled to 10% or below prior to clearance.

  • A waste dryer is used to reduce the water content of the sludge and lessen its weight.
