Use of Innovation and Technology in
Environmental Protection and Testing
Supporting Services from Hong Kong
Productivity Council
As a major industry supporting organization,
HKPC has been active in the deployment of
innovation, technology and best practices to
support the community in the area of :
•Advanced manufacturing
•Information technology
•Environmental protection
•Business operation
Environmental Innovation
• On environmental protection, our missions focus on
supporting the business and manufacturing sectors to
achieve :
– Progression to low carbon economy
– Reduction of environmental pollution to meet
regulatory requirements
– Effective utilization of resources and energy
– Compliance with emerging environmental
requirements in international business and trade
– Development of environmental industry through
environmental product innovation
Innovation and Technology
Development Strategies
1) Working closely with Government Departments such as
EPD, ITC and the industry to identify the needs
2) Early involvement of potential technology / business
partners and potential users whenever possible
3) The technology should be able to be productized and
pilot system be field tested and performance be verified
4) Mature technologies will be transferred to private sector
under licensing agreement
Progression to Low
Carbon Economy
Low Carbon Technology
LED Office Lighting Box reduces 30-40%
energy consumption then the traditional
flourescent tube lighting
Development of an Idle-stop System to reduce
motor vehicle emission
Development of an Electric Minibus for green
transportation
Environmental Regulatory
Compliance
Examples of the Developed Environmental Technology / System

HKPC’s Support to the Testing
and Certification Industry
(I) Capacity Building
HKPC is now actively supporting the development of the
industry by :
a)Participating
in the development a professional recognition
scheme to attract and retain young professionals
b)Involving
in the formulation of a Qualification Framework for
the industry
c)Promoting
emerging and new testing and certification
opportunities to industry
(II) Collaboration in the Development
of New Testing Methods and
Certification Schemes
•
Chinese medicine / medical device
• Quality Food / Healthcare Product Scheme
• Nano-Product Certification Scheme
• Quality Far-infrared Product Testing & Certification
Scheme
• Quality LED Lighting Product Testing & Certification
Scheme
(III) Facility Sharing
EMC Laboratory
Watch & Clock Laboratory

Odour Laboratory
Functions of New EMC Chamber
The new EMC Chamber is targeted to be completed in early 2011, and
a)
will be capable of serving as a new testing site for the following
purposes:
•
Radiated Emission - Measurements of radio disturbance field
strength for frequency range from 1GHz to 18GHz (current
chamber limited at 1GHz); and
•
b)
Radiated RF field immunity testing for frequency range from
80MHz to at least 6GHz (current chamber limited at 1GHz);
can perform tests as according to the latest international
requirements (e.g., EN55022, EN 61000-4-3, CISPR 25, ISO
11452-2, ETSI standards)
New Reliability Testing
Facilities and Challenges
•
There is the fast demand from electronic industry on
high reliability testing
•
The upgraded services will include
• Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT)
• Highly Accelerated Stress Screening (HASS)
• X-ray Inspection
• Drop & Shear Test
• HALT and HASS for meeting the increasingly
stringent testing standards and requirements by
industries demanding high reliability
performance
To support local T&C industries, electronic
manufacturing and trading industries. HKPC is
enhancing its facilities to meet demands of local
industry in developing high reliability electronics
products.
