The waste plastics industry has a lot of reaction to the government's policy across the board, not only mainland China counterparts, all countries that export waste plastics, the industry has also attacked, because the ban on imports so that a lot of waste plastic has no way out and buried, affecting the environment ; There are also because of their customers in a short period of time can not find the local market or other overseas markets replaced and forced to close, there are European and American trade associations through the government and the mainland government to negotiate whether there are other ways to 'all banned'.
China Waste Plastics Association executive president Huang Chuqi
Mainland China is estimated to use more than 80 million tons of plastic materials per year, while local recycling accounts for 21 million tons and imports of waste plastics account for 7 million tons. Based on this figure, the local recovery rate is only about 30 percent, With China's labor costs and waste plastics production capacity, China can significantly increase domestic recycling, unlike Hong Kong's lack of places and factories, where wages and other costs are high, leading to the development of local recycling.
The import of waste plastics is estimated that five percent of the factories will be converted to centralized local recycling, generally a large system with technology and technology to be competent; five percent of the industry out of China to Southeast Asian countries to set up factories or To the United States, the United States, Japan to 'source regeneration.' The rest of the other 80% of the line of personnel I am afraid to be forced to close the industry, no money can be glorious retirement, and owed a lot of debt will have to liquidate bankruptcy.
China's most urgent recycling is the municipal government to collect waste plastics, household waste plastics and agricultural waste plastics, but this waste plastic recycling costs higher than the recovery after the sale price, there is no policy with no industry will go to recycling. China has so many factories and production capacity, such as with the government policy should be able to greatly enhance the recovery rate in mainland China.
The "waste" recycling industry has been polarized and re-shuffled, leaving the big business, technically, systemically and capitalically abundant factories. The equipment factory is also the same fate, no scale or no skills of the factory also Be eliminated.
