Hangers, table tennis bats, trash cans, envelopes, desks, garden fences, park wooden bridges, shoes insoles... You can think of these items and the Tirobag, Tetra Pak, etc. does it matter? In the past, these paper packages were often thrown away as rubbish, because we didn't know whether they were worthless, or because they were not recycled.
In advocating a circular economy and saving society today, good news has recently come from Shanghai, Hangzhou, Beijing, and Shenzhen. With the support of Tetra Pak, an emerging abandoned composite paper packaging recycling industry chain is gradually moving from south to north. With the help of advanced recycling technology, recycling and recycling companies can make full use of waste paper packaging and turn them into many daily commodities.
According to reports, the composite paper packaging used for milk and soft drinks is made up of multiple layers of paper, plastic, and aluminum. For example, Tetra Pak packaging contains more than 70% of long fiber pulp and 20% of plastic. It was difficult due to technical reasons in the past. It is separated from recycled paper pulp so that it can only be burned or landfilled. Recently, China has a new type of recycling equipment, which can effectively separate the various materials of composite paper packaging, thus producing pulp and plastic particles, turning waste into treasure.
Shanghai Caile Environmental Products Co., Ltd. cooperates with Tetra Pak to develop waste paper packaging to produce recycled products such as trash cans, outdoor flooring, desks and chairs, industrial pallets, etc. Shenzhen Green Shield Environmental Protection Co., Ltd. is located in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing and other cities. Launched a trash box made from Taller boards. Beijing has investors and more than 300 waste collection stations negotiated recovery issues, will carry out the recycling of composite paper packaging in 7 communities.
The big milk production company Yili Company also recently heard good news. A few years ago, the large amount of waste packaging produced in production was a heavy burden because it was difficult to dispose of, and it was necessary to pay a small fee each year. Later, Yili Company, with the cooperation of Tetra Pak China Ministry of Environmental Technology, supported Rongxin Paper Factory to establish a recycling line for composite paper packaging and completely ate its waste package, so that the recycling rate of Yili's main production plants reached 100%.
Circular economy has become a trend in the world. Brazil, which is also a developing country, has formed a waste recycling system consisting of government, non-government organizations, corporate alliances, community publics, scavengers, and recycling companies. The reuse rate of waste beverage containers has reached 20%. Our country’s work in this area has just started. There is a situation of “waiting for the rice to churn” in the new production plants. The monthly processing capacity of Hangzhou Fuyang Fulun Paper Mill is 300 tons, but it can only recover about 10 tons per month. People concerned have appealed that the development of China’s circular economy needs recycling companies, and it also needs the support of the public and all sectors of society. In particular, it is necessary to use the power of schools, neighborhood communities, waste collection systems, sanitation systems, and environmental protection volunteers to jointly recycle waste packets. It is fully utilized.
