Published

on

Training will support businesses and workers in the nation’s rapidly growing electronics scrap and remanufacturing industries

ROCHESTER, N.Y., June 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The REMADE Institute is pleased to announce it has been awarded $380,000 from the U.S. Department of Energy to develop Circular Economy workforce training for the nation’s rapidly growing electronics scrap and remanufacturing industries. REMADE℠ will lead the workforce project and partner on it with the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), the Recycled Materials Association (ReMA), and the Remanufacturing Industries Council (RIC).

The goal of the project is to develop bilingual, English and Spanish, online workforce training for roles that do not require four-year degrees in the e-scrap and remanufacturing industries. Both of these industries have significant needs for employees who can fill these types of roles, which include shop-floor workers as well as repair, test and diagnostic technicians. The specific training developed as part of this project would teach not only entry-level shop-floor workers, but would also provide progressive training to allow workers to move up the ladder into repair, test and diagnostic technician jobs.

“Upskilling the nation’s workforce is critical for ensuring the nation’s successful transition to a Circular Economy,” said REMADE CEO Nabil Nasr. “Improved training in these industries will reduce the onboarding costs for entry-level employees and facilitate upskilling. It will also address significant barriers for these businesses as they seek to accelerate circularity in the consumer electronics industry.”

E-scrap companies identify products and components that are worth repairing and reselling and they need shop-floor workers who can support them with sorting, testing, diagnostics and more. Consumer electronic product remanufacturers have similar roles for shop floor workers and technicians. They need workers who can support them with disassembly, sorting, testing, diagnostics and more.

“Access to skilled operators and experienced technicians is a challenge all over in manufacturing, and is no less a problem for companies that process e-scrap or remanufacture electronics,” said Mike Thurston, technical director at RIT’s Golisano Institute for Sustainability. “This program is designed to help bridge that labor gap.”

“ReMA is excited to partner on the creation of bilingual electronics recycling workforce training resources that will support the ongoing success of electronic recycling businesses throughout the U.S.,” said ReMA President Robin Wiener. “With the generation of end-of-life electronics projected to grow to 74 million tons by 2030, it is important that we proactively work to build the talent pool who will be necessary to reintroduce those materials back into the manufacturing supply chain.”

“RIC member companies are contending with the same labor shortages facing the rest of the manufacturing industry,” said RIC Chair Jeff Sutherland. “We are pleased to support this project to facilitate the onboarding of new remanufacturing employees.”

The funding for this award is provided by the DOE’s Advanced Materials & Manufacturing Technologies Office (AMMTO), and is one of five awards that were recently announced to accelerate the development, deployment, and scale-up of education and workforce programs that support the labor needs of American manufacturing. This funding will be used to expand such programs to broader communities across the country and meet the future labor needs of industries that are projected to expand rapidly in the immediate future as part of the nation’s shift to a clean energy economy.

“Investing in the success of our nation’s workforce is critical to a globally competitive domestic manufacturing sector and the future of our clean energy economy,” said AMMTO Director Chris Saldaña. “The U.S. Department of Energy is proud to support projects that provide workers with new and exciting opportunities to enter the rapidly growing electronic scrap and remanufacturing industries and support the upscaling of workers across the clean energy sector.”

TRENDS INFLUENCING THE GROWTH OF THE PHOTO DETECTOR MARKET:

Portable photodetectors convert smartphones, wearables, drone payloads, and field-testing gadgets into ubiquitous optical laboratories, shifting measurement from centralized benches to the network edge. Integration with low-power microcontrollers lets environmental scientists verify air quality on mountain trails and agronomists gauge chlorophyll in remote paddies, all without mains electricity. High-volume handset manufacturing cuts module cost below a dollar, making photoplethysmography and time-of-flight depth mapping commonplace in consumer devices. This mass adoption primes suppliers with cash flow to fund R&D for ultraviolet-C pathogen detection. Start-ups exploit open Bluetooth profiles to link photodiodes with cloud dashboards, spawning subscription services for athletes, diabetics, and construction inspectors, thus transforming one-time hardware sales into durable recurring revenue.

Stationary photodetector systems, anchored in traffic intersections, semiconductor fabs, and utility substations, serve applications where stability, throughput, and calibration precision outweigh mobility. Smart-city planners layer lidar-based monitors with multispectral cameras to quantify vehicle counts, pedestrian flow, and emissions in real time, feeding AI engines that optimize signal timing and congestion pricing. In manufacturing, fixed spectrophotometers inspect wafer lithography or beverage clarity at line rates exceeding ten-thousand samples per hour, eliminating costly manual sampling. Utility operators embed photodiodes within switchgear to detect early arc-flash signatures, pre-empting outages. Because these installations lock customers into multi-year calibration and analytics contracts, stationary solutions generate predictable after-sales income that cushions vendors against smartphone-cycle volatility. Over time, artificial-intelligence upgrades further enhance data value and extend replacement intervals.

Consumer electronics set the cadence for innovation in photodetector pixel density, quantum efficiency, and power budget. Each flagship smartphone integrates a growing constellation of optical modules—structured-light projectors for secure face unlock, laser autofocus, depth-sensing SPAD arrays, and ambient-color sensors that tune display white balance in real time. Smart-TV OEMs add gesture-recognition cameras to remote-free interfaces, while VR headsets string four or more inside-out tracking cameras around the visor, each dependent on high-frame-rate photodiodes with low dark current. The fierce feature race forces yearly redesigns, compressing product lifecycles and driving wafer starts at mixed-signal foundries. Volume economics from this consumer onslaught cascade into industrial and medical tiers, lowering barriers for niche deployments. Accessory ecosystems—ring lights, gimbals, and AR spectacles—likewise embed auxiliary photodetectors, magnifying aggregate demand.

ADAS multiplies photodetector channels per car. Solid-state lidar arrays use dense SPAD networks to perceive pedestrians in fog, while interior driver-monitoring cameras employ NIR sensors to track distraction. Euro-NCAP protocols now demand automatic emergency braking and intelligent speed assistance, making multi-spectral optical sensing mandatory for five-star safety ratings. Tier-one suppliers sign decade-long volume contracts, ensuring foundry utilization. Premium carmakers differentiate with 4D lidar featuring single-photon avalanche diodes capable of picosecond timing, commanding high ASPs. Automotive qualification cycles create durable revenue annuities, while over-the-air firmware updates unlock advanced features, encouraging owners to subscribe, further monetizing embedded photodetectors.

In point-of-care diagnostics, photodetectors form the critical read-out engine that turns biochemical reactions into quantifiable digital signals within minutes. Disposable test cartridges—ranging from lateral-flow COVID assays to microfluidic HbA1c panels—use embedded photodiodes or compact CMOS sensors to measure colorimetric or fluorescent changes produced by antigen–antibody binding or enzymatic activity. Because these detectors can resolve subtle intensity shifts, clinicians obtain lab-comparable accuracy at the bedside or pharmacy counter without bulky spectrophotometers. Pharmacy chains bundle readers with subscription data services, generating predictable consumable pull-through. Developing economies adopt low-cost photodiode readers to offset limited lab infrastructure, broadening geographic revenue.

LEED, BREEAM, and national green codes mandate daylight harvesting and occupancy-based lighting controls, all dependent on lux and presence detection. Ultra-low-dark-current diodes keep standby power at micro-watt level, vital for sensor grids in commercial campuses. Performance-contract financiers bundle hardware, installation, and savings guarantees, shifting CapEx to OpEx and accelerating upgrades. LED-driver ICs now ship with integrated photodiode feedback loops, simplifying design and boosting attach rates. Carbon-reduction targets create repeat retrofit cycles as efficacy thresholds tighten.

Hyperspectral drones and satellite surveys rely on high-QE detector arrays to monitor nitrogen uptake, fungal infections, and water stress at centimetre resolution. Variable-rate applicators cut fertilizer and pesticide usage up to thirty percent, justifying sensor investment. Governments subsidize agritech drones to meet sustainable-yield targets, injecting predictable demand. Commodity traders and crop-insurance firms pay for real-time imagery, creating secondary revenue channels for detector OEMs.
