概要

Recycling is a very important factor for the formation of a recycling-oriented society, but if it is set recycling as goal, it will increase the environmental burden. Recycling is not a goal. In order to create a recycling-oriented society, it is necessary to consider what is more effective and efficient recycling, from both technical and social institutions. The purpose of this class is to understand the current status of recycling in Japan and around the world, its significance, and issues through omnibus-style lectures from an engineering perspective. This lesson is paired with Waste Management in Asia, and it is recommended to take both recycling engineering technology and policy classes to better understand recycling in a recycling-oriented society

目標

To deepen the understanding of recycling, which is an important element of a recycling-oriented society, from an engineering point of view, and to acquire the thinking method to consider efficient recycling from various points of view and also acquire the basic knowledge about it. 1) Learn the basic knowledge in the field of Recycling Engineering. Lectures cover, current status of wastes in a society, compositions and properties of waste resources, conversion technologies of wastes into resources, and evaluation of conversion technologies. 2) Acquire sufficient knowledge of Recycling Engineering and be able to put them to practical use. 3) Be able to describe Recycling Engineering logically, make an accurate presentation, and hold discussion. Using at least one foreign language(English), we will acquire basic communication skills.

授業外の学習

References to each teacher's topics will be presented in the first class, so prepare and review according to the instructions. 1)Before attending class, read thoroughly the reference literature and materials introduced in every - class. It takes approximately 2-3 hours. 2)After classes, make notes from summarizing class contents as preparation for group discussion. 1 hour is expected for making notes and preparation. 3) For Presenter, expected to spend as much time as 5-6hours for preparation, and make a simple resume and distribute it.
