On 22 July 2022, Prof Anthony Chen, Dr Yi Jiang and Dr Barbara Siu led 16 CEE students to visit the WEEE Park and the Wetland Park. The WEEE Park is a state-of-the-art Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) treatment and recycling facility located at Tuen Mun, where students learnt about the process of recovering useful materials from the electrical and electronic appliances through various physical processes. The site of Hong Kong Wetland Park was originally intended to be an ecological mitigation area (EMA) to compensate for the wetlands lost due to Tin Shui Wai New Town development. It showcases the diversity of the Hong Kong's wetland ecosystem and highlights the need to conserve them. Despite the summer heat (37oC), all participants found the tour fruitful and enjoyable.
We have uploaded the photos of the tour to the following share drive:
