Table A3. Economic support (resources and technology) from different government departments
Code Support progress Category Details
G1 Technical support Content Provided classification management manuals, waste treatment process
guidelines, and organized training programs
Measures Allocated special funds; collaborated with universities to hold regular
technical sharing sessions
Acceptance level Enterprises show interest in financial support, but participation rates in
technical training remain low
Effectiveness Funding has preliminarily improved waste classification and treatment
efficiency in some enterprises
Advanced Type Introduced an intelligent waste classification recognition system
technology Improvement Significant improvements in automation and accuracy, reducing human
errors and associated costs
Effectiveness The system demonstrated positive outcomes but requires further
adjustments to align with real-world construction scenarios
Adaptability The applicability is relatively high, though equipment upgrade costs
need to be considered.
G2 Technical support Content Provided dedicated vehicles for waste transportation and established
construction waste sorting centers
Measures Offered free treatment services for properly classified construction waste
and fuel subsidies for waste transportation companies
Acceptance level Construction units acknowledged that transportation support significantly
reduced their burden, but remain hesitant about utilizing sorting centers
Effectiveness The coordination mechanism between transportation and sorting has
shown initial success, though inadequate waste classification continues
to limit its effectiveness
Advanced Type Promoted precast production technology using recycled aggregates, such
technology as processing waste concrete into bricks and curb stones
Improvement Significantly enhanced the strength and durability of recycled materials
Effectiveness Applied on a small scale in municipal projects, yielding stable results
Adaptability Highly applicable, but policy support is required to mitigate the
economic risks for enterprises adopting the technology
G3 Technical support Content Required construction units to submit construction waste management
plans during project approval processes and provided a data-sharing
platform for recycling units
Measures Used approval authority to monitor construction units’ compliance with
classification responsibilities. Encouraged recycling units to develop
new technologies through policy incentives and rewards
Acceptance level Construction units demonstrated strong compliance with approval
requirements.
Effectiveness The initiative enhanced the standardization of construction waste
management, though government departments lack complementary
regulatory measures.
Advanced Type Pilot promotion of an intelligent construction waste tracking system
technology (Geographic Information System) to record the entire process from
construction sites to processing facilities
Improvement Improved regulatory efficiency and transparency.
