Japan’s “Urban Mine” concept: implementation plan for efficient recycling of used batteries and electronic waste

Release date: April 1, 2025 – With the improvement of awareness of resource recycling, Japan’s “Urban Mine” concept is gradually being implemented, aiming to efficiently recycle used batteries and electronic waste and promote sustainable development. The program promotes the reuse and environmental protection of urban resources through a number of measures.

1. Collaborative recycling of used batteries and electronic waste
Japan has set up several special recycling points in cities to collect used batteries and electronic products. This not only makes it convenient for citizens to dispose of waste, but also reduces resource waste. Through extensive publicity and education activities, the public’s participation in recycling has been significantly improved.

2. Efficient recycling technology
Japan’s recycling facilities have introduced modern automated equipment, using robots and intelligent sorting technology to achieve efficient disassembly and classification. The use of advanced technologies such as low-temperature smelting and electrochemical extraction has significantly increased the recovery rate of lead, metals and plastics, while reducing environmental pollution.

3. Resource Recycling
Recycled raw materials such as lead and plastic can be reprocessed and used to make new products such as battery casings and other electronic components. It is worth mentioning that our lead-acid batteries are designed and produced with full consideration of recyclability to ensure efficient recycling and reuse after use. In addition, related research is also exploring the development of alternative materials to further reduce dependence on primary resources.

4. Policy and regulatory support
The Japanese government has provided policy support for companies and citizens to participate in recycling activities through regulations such as the Resource Recycling Law. Incentives such as tax breaks and subsidies have promoted the rapid development of the recycling industry.

5. Data Monitoring and Management
The establishment of an intelligent management system makes the monitoring of the recycling process more efficient. Through the Internet of Things (IoT) technology, the recycling process is tracked in real time, and big data analysis is used to evaluate the effect, adjust the strategy in time, and optimize resource allocation.

6. Education and publicity
In order to raise public awareness of environmental protection, Japan regularly conducts publicity activities and offers environmental education courses in schools to cultivate the sense of responsibility of the younger generation.

Industry Outlook
The implementation of the “urban mine” concept not only improves the efficiency of resource recycling, but also contributes to environmental protection. Jiangbei Tianneng’s lead-acid batteries, with their superior recyclability and environmentally friendly design, have become an important part of this circular economy model. As this program is further promoted, Japan’s practice in circular economy and sustainable development will provide valuable experience and reference for other countries.
