In fiscal year 2021, the number of battery chargers from mobile and personal handy phone systems (PHS) collected for recycling or re-use amounted to about 1.31 million in Japan, down from around 3.2 million in fiscal year 2013.
The collection of mobile phones, batteries, and chargers is conducted by Mobile Recycling Network (MRN). MRN was established in 2001 by Telecommunications Carriers Association (TSA) in cooperation with major mobile carriers and manufacturers to improve the efficient use of materials in mobile phones and PHS devices. The network voluntarily collects used mobile and PHS terminals through retail outlets throughout Japan, regardless of carrier or manufacturer.
