Center for Recycling Systems

To implement new recycling systems in our communities as part of building a recycling-oriented society, a variety of issues in designing new social systems, such as waste collection and establishment of new sales channels, should be discussed simultaneously while technical development is being promoted. The Research Commercialization Center for Recycling Systems is a government policy-promotion research institute that makes comprehensive efforts to overcome these issues. We help industries, academic institutions, governments, and citizens conduct joint researches smoothly and commercialize the research results.  Promote research and development to build social systems, such as recycling systems and waste collection, based on the properties of each type of waste. The research and development are conducted jointly among industries, Roles of academic institutions, governments, and citizens. the center  Support the commercialization and dissemination of the research results to local communities.
