調(diào)查：“廢舊手機(jī)”回收率僅2%

近幾年，智能手機(jī)發(fā)展日新月異，手機(jī)更新迭代不斷加速。有調(diào)查顯示，約50%的用戶每18 個(gè)月就會(huì)換機(jī)。然而在一片紅火的新機(jī)銷售市場(chǎng)背后，我國(guó)廢舊手機(jī)的回收率卻并不高，造成了資源浪費(fèi)。

The rapid development of technology leads to frequent personal turnover of mobile phones. About 50 percent of users in China change to a new phone every 18 months, according to Chinanews.

技術(shù)快速發(fā)展導(dǎo)致個(gè)人手機(jī)更新迭代愈發(fā)頻繁。據(jù)中新網(wǎng)報(bào)道，約50%的用戶每18 個(gè)月就會(huì)換部新手機(jī)。

However, alongside the high replacement rate is a low recycling rate. China now has about one billion unused mobile phones, but only two percent have been recycled with most of the rejected devices improperly handled.

然而，伴隨高迭代率的是低回收率。國(guó)內(nèi)現(xiàn)在有約10億部廢舊手機(jī)的存量，回收率只有2%左右，大量更換下來(lái)的舊手機(jī)都沒(méi)有得到妥善處理。

“廢舊手機(jī)”指被廢棄的、老舊的手機(jī)，所以英文可以用old and discarded cellphones表示，也可簡(jiǎn)稱為discarded phones。

廢舊手機(jī)回收后，一般有三種去向：較新、損壞程度較小的手機(jī)經(jīng)過(guò)分類處理、翻新后流入二手市場(chǎng)(refurbished and resold to users on second-hand market);有一定損壞不能直接使用的手機(jī)，可用零部件會(huì)被拆解再利用(recycled for components that can be reused);完全無(wú)法使用的，經(jīng)過(guò)原材料提煉后，作為垃圾焚燒處理(units that cannot be reused are incinerated after extracting their precious metals)。

但是目前，我國(guó)廢舊手機(jī)回收面臨回收價(jià)格偏低(low recycling price)、存在個(gè)人隱私泄露風(fēng)險(xiǎn)(risk of privacy disclosure)，以及相關(guān)行業(yè)政策不完善(lack of sound policies)等問(wèn)題。

業(yè)內(nèi)人士建議，未來(lái)，在發(fā)展新機(jī)銷售市場(chǎng)的同時(shí)，市場(chǎng)應(yīng)該培育消費(fèi)者“以舊換新”的習(xí)慣(develop the habit of part-trading their old devices for a replacement)，同時(shí)建立暢通、可靠的回收渠道(establish smooth and reliable recycling channel)，來(lái)提高廢舊手機(jī)回收率。
