Topic: Does the construction of a "waste-free city" conflict with the development of the plastics industry?

[ Focus on Chemical Machinery Equipment Network ] In the past two years, the concept of "waste-free city" has appeared in front of people more and more frequently, but many people still have misunderstandings about it.

 

What is a "waste-free city"?
 

"Waste-free city" is a new development concept based on innovation, coordination, greenness, openness, and sharing.
Through promoting the formation of green development methods and life>
 

As the name implies, many people think that a "waste-free city" means a city without solid waste, and despise the possibility of its realization.
Due to the frequent hidden worries of plastic waste pollution in recent years, many people still think that the construction of "waste-free cities" is incompatible with the development of the plastics industry, and the development of the plastics industry chain will face greater difficulties.

 

However, we must understand that “waste-free city” does not mean that there is no solid waste generation, nor does it mean that solid waste can be fully recycled, but aims to ultimately achieve the minimum amount of solid waste generated in the entire city, and full utilization of resources.
The goal of handling safety requires our* exploration and practice.

 

For the plastics industry, although it is a challenge, it is also an opportunity.

 

　　In 2020, the National Development and Reform Commission* issued the "Opinions on Further Strengthening the Treatment of Plastic Pollution (Fagaihuanzi [2020] No.
80)" to regulate the recycling and disposal of plastic waste, strengthen plastic waste and removal, and promote resources Utilization of chemical energy.
Prior to this, there were even the "Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Pollution from the Processing and Utilization of Waste Plastics", "Regulations for the Comprehensive Utilization of Waste Plastics Industry", "Electronic Waste, Waste Tires, Waste Plastics, Waste Clothes, Dismantling of Waste Home Appliances and other recycling industries.
Relevant policies such as the rectification work plan have been released one after another, and the waste plastics industry has long been on the cusp of changes in the times.

 

　　The former waste plastic processing enterprises are relatively scattered, and most of them are still in a low, small, scattered, and chaotic state, and many are even in a three-in-one family workshop->
 

　　The recycling and reuse of waste plastics has evolved into a focal issue of the whole society.

 

　　The construction of a “no-waste city” pilot program requires a review of the status quo of solid waste management from the perspective of urban development.
In the agricultural sector, it is proposed to focus on recycling and treatment, improve the level of reuse of waste agricultural film and pesticide packaging waste, and establish government guidance , Recycling system with the participation of business entities and farmers.
In cities with developed service industries, it is proposed that specific tasks should be proposed in terms of restricting the production, sales and use of disposable non-degradable plastic products and excessive packaging, carrying out the construction of a green logistics system, promoting the application of green packaging in the express delivery industry, and promoting the CD-ROM campaign.
Guide the formation of a simple and moderate green life>
 

　　It can even develop the "Internet +" solid waste treatment industry, promote new recycling technologies and new models, support renewable resource recycling companies to establish online trading platforms, improve offline recycling outlets, and achieve an organic combination of online waste delivery and offline recycling.
Establish an information exchange mechanism between a government solid waste environmental management platform and a market-oriented solid waste public trading platform to realize the informatization and visualization of solid waste collection, transfer, and disposal links, and improve the efficiency and level of supervision and management.

 

　　Can these be achieved? In time, of course!
 

　　According to * information, as of December 31, 2020, as of December 31, 2020, the Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone has launched a pilot project for reducing the amount of disposable consumer goods.
Large supermarkets such as 7FRESH, Hema, and Sam Supermarket in the zone have completely banned disposable plastic bags.
45 All hotels have cancelled the voluntary provision of disposable consumer goods; Sanya and the Basel Convention Asia-Pacific Regional Center signed the "Sino-Norwegian Cooperation"-Marine Plastics and Microplastics Management Capacity Building Project Cooperation Memorandum", becoming a "Sino-Norwegian Project" plastic reduction Demonstration city; Baotou City has completed the Guyang County waste plastic film dropper and other plastic products recycling project, Guyang waste plastic recycling project, Baotou Clean Plastic Industry Development Co.
, Ltd.
60,000 tons of waste plastic recycling cycle Use projects and other project engineering constructions.

 

　　The construction of a "waste-free city" is an opportunity to break the situation for the development of the waste plastic industry!
