In order to prospect current recycling status in Korea, wastes generation and recycling rate were reviewed. Approximately 188,600 ton/day of wastes was generated in 1998; 44,600 ton/day of domestic waste and 144,000 ton/day of industrial waste. During the last five years, waste management laws such as recycling law and environment friendly industry law were prepared. In this article, concerning over waste generation and recycling, the problems and technological developments associated with recycling were summarized.

In order to prospect current recycling status in Korea, legislative system and policies relating to recycling, wastes generation and recycling rate were reviewed. Approximately 260,400 ton/day of wastes was generated in 2001. 48,400 ton/day of household waste and 212,000 ton/day of industrial waste. During the last ten years, waste management laws such as waste disposal law, recycling law and environment friendly industry law were prepared. In this article, concerning over waste generation and recycling, recycling law, Extended Producer Responsibility System and the problems and technological developments associated with recycling were summarized.

Since there are many kinds of non-ferrous metal, it is difficult to investigate the current status on the recycling of non-ferrous metals. Therefore, the survey is confined to some commercially important non-ferrous metals such as copper, lead, zinc, aluminum, nickel and magnesium in this article. Domestic demand and production in recent years and current status on the recycling of the scraps of these non-ferrous metals are introduced briefly here.

Owing to technological advancements and energy-saving policies, the demand for LED is increasing, leading to rapid industry expansion. Consequently, efficient recycling of accumulated LED waste has become a growing social concern, and current recycling status of LED waste resources and future directions were reviewed. Currently, waste LED recycling is focused on Ga recovery. Therefore, the development of integrated recycling technologies such as pre-treatment and concentration/recovery of high valued materials is necessary. In this study, we investigated the status and recycling technologies of waste LED and presented prospects.

In order to survey the numerical achievement of ELV recycling rate 95%, the definition of ELV recycling rate, material components of the automobile, improvement of ELV dismantling technology and status of ASR recycling were reviewed. On the other hand, field survey in details for dismantling works were conducted at Incheon Junkyard and H Junkyard. Although material recycling rate has been approaching 94% in dismantling step, status of ASR recycling is very unstable due to a ban of ASR recycling at cement kiln. It is clear that ASR recycling acts as a bottle neck in the ELV recycling. Therefore, it is important energy recycling of ASR should be enlarged to achieve ELV recycling rate 95%.
