Insights into Orient Semiconductor Electronics's Waste Treatment Practices

In 2023, Orient Semiconductor Electronics generated a total of 2,534 metric tonnes of waste.

Of this amount, 37.36% of Orient Semiconductor Electronics's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 62.64% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.

Orient Semiconductor Electronics's Waste Recovery Rate

37%

How much of Orient Semiconductor Electronics's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, Orient Semiconductor Electronics reported a total waste generation of 2,534 metric tonnes, of which 37.36% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Orient Semiconductor Electronics is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.

Has Orient Semiconductor Electronics reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2021, Orient Semiconductor Electronics's total waste generation decreased by 16.29%, yet rose by 1.69% in 2023, potentially indicating a temporary operational shift or inconsistency in waste management outcomes.

Over the same period, Orient Semiconductor Electronics's waste recovery rate increased by 5.41%, including a 8.09% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.

Overall, Orient Semiconductor Electronics has reduced its waste footprint over time and continues to strengthen its recovery efforts, despite a recent uptick in waste output. This may reflect short-term operational shifts rather than a long-term reversal.

How Orient Semiconductor Electronics reduced the environmental impact of its waste?

Since 2021, Orient Semiconductor Electronics's total waste generation fell by 16.29%, but rose by 1.69% in 2023 , potentially reflecting a temporary surge in activity or inconsistency in waste control strategies.

Over the same period, Orient Semiconductor Electronics saw a long-term increase of 7.41% in hazardous waste share, but a 22.41% reduction in 2023, indicating a recent improvement that may reflect updated production inputs, enhanced treatment, or stricter controls.

Overall, Orient Semiconductor Electronics's waste and hazardousness trends are mixed or inconclusive. A more detailed review of its materials, industry standards, and operational changes would help clarify the net environmental impact of its waste strategy.

How does Orient Semiconductor Electronics treat its hazardous waste?

In 2023, Orient Semiconductor Electronics reported that 137 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 5.42% of its overall waste generation.

The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Only 4.81% of hazardous waste was recovered, meaning the vast majority was treated through disposal methods such as landfilling or incineration. This raises concerns about the environmental and health risks associated with Orient Semiconductor Electronics’s current hazardous waste practices.
