Tianjin encourages the development of plastic recycling economy

Yesterday, Liu Weiyue, a member of the Political Consultative Conference of the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the Twelfth Session of the CPPCC National Committee and the manager of technical exchanges of Motorola Tianjin, suggested that while advocating citizens to establish environmental awareness, they must encourage the development of recycling industries for plastic products and vigorously develop the plastic recycling economy.

Liu Weiyue said that plastic packaging products provide convenience for people's production and living, and are increasingly favored by people. Whether it is industrial products, household appliances, or disposable packaging materials that people often use, the vast majority of them choose plastics. Waste plastics are difficult to degrade and cause environmental pollution. Disposable packaging bags are thrown everywhere and can also affect environmental protection. Whether it is recycled plastics that are used multiple times or single-use packaging plastics, they will eventually become waste plastics. However, waste plastics also have extremely high use value. In the past, these waste plastics were treated passively to reduce their environmental impact. The hazards are seldom considered for the use of its heat energy value. Waste plastic is a kind of high combustion calorific value garbage, which has high energy conversion efficiency and has become the raw material of choice for waste power generation in many countries. Therefore, it is imperative to vigorously develop the plastic recycling economy. We should guide people in the rational use of plastic packaging products, while improving the mechanism for recycling plastic packaging products, vigorously develop the waste-to-energy industry, increase the efficiency of the use of waste power stations, and fundamentally solve the white pollution.
