Increasing the overall recycling rate is a crucial step in addressing the waste problem in Hong Kong. People often wonder about the destination of recycled materials. To address these queries, BEC will organise a technical visit to three recycling and waste treatment plants in Hong Kong on 12 July (Friday). This visit aims to provide participants with an in-depth understanding of the recycling process for handling various materials.
