Final Disposal Fourth: Proper Disposal Dispose of those cannot be used by any means Treatment (Recycling, incineration, etc.) Production (Manufacturing, distribution, etc.) Consumption, Use Discard Third (2): Recycling: Energy Recovery Recover energy from those having no alternatives but incineration and unable to be materially recycled Third (1): Material Recycling Recycle those cannot be reused as raw materials Input of Natural Resources First: Reduce Reduce generation of wastes and byproducts Second: Reuse Use goods/products repeatedly Concept of a Sound Material-Cycle Society in Japan 1 1

7 Total material requirement concerning metallic resources in Japan Changes in TMR concerning metallic resources imported to Japan Source: Results of the Forth Progress Evaluation of the Second Fundamental Plan for Establishing a Sound Material –Cycle Society March 2012, Central Environmental Council of Japan Year Other metals Zinc Uranium Rhodium Platinum Palladium Nickel Tin Aluminum Gold Copper Iron Million tons For reference *2 *1 The metallic resources are arranged in descending order of the TMR concerning imported in 2009 *2 The data for 2003 and 2004 are indicated only for reference because the values for silicon, uranium, arsenic, cadmium and mercury were unavailable

1.Efforts are necessary to increase resource productivity by reducing the input of all our natural resources through 3R. 2.To evaluate of the quality of cyclical use is important. 3.Establishing a safety and sound material cycle is required 8 Conclusions
