"WEEE·PARK" is a waste electrical and electronic product processing and recycling facility in Hong Kong. Entering "WEEE·PARK", the instructor started with the source of waste electrical appliances, introduced the recycling path of waste electrical appliances to the students, and how the factory in "WEEE·PARK" intelligently disassembles waste electrical appliances, and finely classifies and finally recycles electrical components. The young people realized how those electronic products that were regarded as useless things were transformed into valuable resources step by step with the help of high technology.
"T. Park" is one of the most advanced sludge treatment facilities in Hong Kong. Under the guidance of the park's guide, the young people learned about the high-temperature treatment and energy recovery process of sludge, witnessed the gorgeous transformation of sludge from "waste" to "resource", and felt the tremendous power of science and technology in the field of environmental protection.
