1. About the Visit

The Sino-Forest Applied Research Centre for Pearl River Delta Environment (ARCPE) was

established in mid-2008 with funding support from private donations from the Sino-Forest

Corporation, the Wofoo Foundation, and Mr. Allen T. Y. Chan. The Centre aims to improve the

environmental quality of the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region by creating a platform for various

stakeholders in Hong Kong and PRD to tackle trans-boundary pollution problems at sources,

advocating the governments on environmental policy, and providing solutions for the industries.

The research centre deploys different knowledge exchange activities between Hong Kong and

other countries every year.

In 2017, from 26th to 28th June, we organized the China Recycling Tour (Jiangmen and Qingyuan)

in order to learn more about advanced recycling operations and exchange insightful recycling

techniques. There were 34 participants from the recycling industry and academic sector, led by Mr.

Kwok Chun Sing – chairman of the Hong Kong General Chamber of Renewable Resources, and

Prof. Wong Jonathan Woon Chung – director of The Sino-Forest Applied Research Centre for

Pearl River Delta Environment.
