It is understood that this technology was jointly developed by Sharp and Osaka Prefecture University. It can convert the important glass substrate of LCD TV into a substance that can be used as a water purifier through a chemical reaction. Taking a 40-inch TV as an example, after reuse, 1.5 kilograms of water purifier can be successfully made. The current price of water purifier on the market is 150 yen per kilogram.
As LCD TVs are subject to recycling under Japan’s Home Appliance Recycling Law, home appliance manufacturers and others bear the obligation to recycle them, while consumers need to bear the corresponding recycling costs. Relevant agencies released survey forecast data. In 2011, the number of discarded LCD TVs in Japan was approximately 600,000. By 2015, this number will reach 2.6 million sets. In 2020, this number will exceed 5 million sets. Following this trend, it will worsen the environment. If Sharp's technology can be successfully applied, waste can be turned into treasure. Companies will gain considerable profits through the reuse of waste TVs, and consumers will also reduce the recycling costs they bear.
