According to a report by People's Daily on April 6th, it was learned from China Resources Recycling Group Co., Ltd. that the China Resources Recycling Mobile Phone Safety Recycling and Disposal Demonstration Project has successfully completed trial operation and started to provide mobile phone safety recycling and disposal services to provincial capital cities. According to industry data, during the 14th Five Year Plan period, the total number of idle mobile phones in China may reach 6 billion. Electronic appliances contain precious metals such as gold and silver, which have enormous potential value. However, due to the special nature of data security and privacy protection, discarded mobile phones must be treated specially in recycling. When 'drawer phones' become synonymous with idle mobile phone resources, and when a considerable amount of precious metals can be extracted from each ton of discarded phones, we have to face up to this neglected' mineral '. The mobile phone safe recycling and disposal model recently launched by China Resources Recycling Group not only provides a safe exit for idle mobile phones, but also reveals the key to solving the problem of recycling used mobile phones: only by building a full chain security system can we balance resource value and data security, and promote the stable and far-reaching development of the circular economy. Data shows that there are over 2 billion discarded mobile phones in China, but only 5% have entered formal recycling channels. The deep anxiety of consumers who are unwilling to "hand over" their phones stems from the real risk of data leakage. Even if formatted multiple times, data can still be recovered through technical means, and the violent dismantling by street vendors and covert operations by second-hand platforms have made privacy protection a concern for people. This has turned a large number of discarded mobile phones into "dormant resources", causing both resource waste and environmental hazards such as battery aging and heavy metal pollution. The innovation of the safety recycling and disposal project mentioned in the news lies in the integration of safety concepts throughout the entire recycling process through an "online+offline" model. After placing an order through the "Chip Worry Free" mini program, users can choose to receive confidential shipping or on-site destruction services. This combination of "physical crushing+chemical treatment" not only ensures the complete destruction of data, but also improves resource utilization. It is necessary to promote the safe mode of recycling such discarded mobile phones. On the one hand, we should improve the extended producer responsibility system, promote mobile phone manufacturers to establish a recycling system, improve the qualification recognition standards for recycling enterprises, and eliminate the practice of "bad money driving out good money"; On the other hand, it is necessary to strengthen the research and development of data cleansing technology to eliminate residual information risks from the root. When mobile phone recycling shifts from "guerrilla warfare" to "battlefield warfare", it reflects the inevitable trend of circular economy transforming from extensive to refined. Under the dual pressure of the "dual carbon" goal and resource security, the safe mode of recycling used mobile phones is not only a technological upgrade, but also an innovation in development concepts. Only by implanting safety genes into every cell of the recycling system can the 'dormant mine' truly become a green treasure, injecting sustainable momentum into high-quality development.
