The owners of the supposedly wrong address will use the funds if it's the case of sending to a wrong blockchain or etheruem address.
But if it's an exchange address,maybe you mistakenly sent coin to a wrong ticker thinking it's same with the particular coin you have.
I don't know what happens to this ones honestly.

Often exchange is not responsible if the user sends the wrong wallet, however if it is not possible to send it. You can contact supporters to get refund. As for the wallet on PC and mobile, I really do not know because there has not been the case on any time
I wonder which are these exchanges that return the money sent by a user to a wrong wallet/address? Exchanges sometimes don't even return coins sent to an address which is owned by them but for another coin (Their ETH addresses sometimes don't accept altcoins). They may refund if coins are sent to their old wallet and if they have the private keys but never in case the coins are sent to a wrong one.
You did not mention if the token that was sent is of the same algo if it is an erc20 or ethereum smart contract coin, then I'm afraid your tokens are gone and the owner of the wallet where you sent it, is now the owner of that token, better check the first three digit and the last three digit before sending your tokens.
It depends on which exchange this operation will take place. Usually, if you mistakenly sent tokens to another wallet, you can write to the exchange support service and for a certain fee they will return your tokens.
No, exchange can't return your tokens, if transaction was already done and if such address exists. But if such address doesn't exist, your tokens will stay on exchange and it is possible to return them via support. 
I made this mistake, when I sent xlm, I did not include the memo and the xlm I sent did not land at all. I am also confused, where are the coins / tokens wasted? but I thought that it would be the right for the coin team, or in general is owned the coin developer.

This is a joke.. When the error is from the sender. I can bet no exchange will ever refund a dime.. I mean those fault is it?The exchange or the sender?. Once the transaction is recorded on the blockchain it's a lost cause.. Except if the exchange is at fault. 
I have a question for you all. What happens to all the tokens mistakenly sent from a wallet to a wrong wallet and where do they go?
As I understand it, its depend on the coin you try to send, some coins will not allow you to send if the receiving addresses don't exist, but other coins will allow you to send!
That's why you should always double check any address before you send. And don't use an exchange address if you join an eth ICO.
That depends on the address you sent. If it is the wallet of the same coin and it is available, someone has already started to spend. But, if it is the wallet of another coin, then the situation is confused.
Lost forever I guess ,there is no way to recover them back and if its sent to the wrong address on exchanges they might be able to get there hands on the tokens because I believe that every wallet address generated on exchange platform are addresses they have access to ,I have lost countless coins this way in the past so I've learnt the hard way
To that wallet.
If that wallet doesn't have owner or lost private keys.
There's no way to claim it again, it is lost forever.

If you send tokens to wrong address on an exchange then you can get it back by contacting them or if you send bitcoin to BCH address means the wallet provider can give it back but most of the time it won't happen.
Well will go to address sent and the tokens remain on that address if someone not access it, and the tokens can also get to a wrong address and someone can use it if has private keys of that address.

It just goes to a wallet that can never be accessed unless someone is lucky (unlucky for the one who lost his/her coins) enough to get that particular address (changes are very less) when they create a new account or someone manages to hack it (which again is nearly impossible if it is not already owned). It's like ICOs send their coins to an address that can never be accessed.

If the address is available and stay live then the fund will be goes to that wrong address. In case the address not available fund will not move out from your wallet address. So please check multiple times when you sending bitcoin or tokens to address.
if it is sends to wrong address you should forget your money and try to earn or buy that tokens again.
