"White pollution" is a serious problem
The problem of "white pollution" has had a serious impact on the ecological environment. Therefore, and in the use of plastic packaging materials for ecological design, with better performance than the material, use more conform to The Times characteristics of techniques and approaches for the development of biodegradable plastics, increased recycling of plastic waste, has become the top priority.
Our country is the world plastic production, consumer country, also is plastic, waste plastic imports the biggest country. At present, global plastic consumption is more than 260 million tons. In 2008, China's plastic watch consumption was 519.14 million tons, accounting for about 20% of the total global plastic consumption. China's plastic products market is very large. It is reported that in 2008 China's plastic packaging materials produced 12.61 million tons. About a third of the total plastic products, combined with agricultural and disposable consumer goods, make up about half of plastic products to waste within a year, while the recovery rate is still low. Moreover, the annual plastic gap in China is very large, and about 45% depends on import. Therefore, it is of great potential to strengthen the reuse of plastic waste resources.
Although China has established and explored a series of recycling of plastic waste resources, some places still have the way of recycling crude landfill, which causes great pollution to our environment. And now that the army of "online shoppers" is growing, the problem of express delivery is becoming more and more prominent, and the delivery packaging materials are not being degraded for 100 years.
American companies have introduced new technology for regenerating compound membranes to break the curse of non-renewable energy
The good news comes from the United States. Said parker company has developed a unique and innovative technology, recycled regenerate multilayer composite flexible packaging film, such as PET/pp, PET/PE, and metal plastic composite material, made of renewable particles, used for various applications.
Vice President of the company AnthonyQuarterman said the company has developed a unique and innovative technology, recycled regenerate multilayer composite flexible packaging film - such as PET/pp, PET/PE, and metal plastic composite material, made of renewable particles, used for various applications.
"This is an unprecedented innovation in the industry," he said in an interview. The technology is the culmination of a decade of research and development by parker company. The current annual output can be 10,000 tons. The company has not disclosed more details about the proprietary technology, but will display the technology at the NPE2015 exhibition in Orlando, Florida.
The company hopes to help plastic packaging production companies to realize zero landfill through new technology. The company last month in the American state of Wisconsin oshkosh, built a 30000 - square - foot warehouse service in nearly a dozen local factories, most of them are a not willing publicly to name all the large flexible packaging manufacturers. Parker says it has signed a 3-5 years' renewable service agreement with the packaging manufacturer. "The new plant is fully equipped to help the manufacturers and suppliers who need the live trailers to promote and implement zero landfill, especially in factories with on-site compaction or large dustbins," parker said.
Oshkosh initially had five employees and is now mainly engaged in small-scale packaging. 30 million pounds of material can be processed annually. "We're regenerating the industrial waste that was going to go into the landfill," says Quarterman. It receives about 50,000 pounds a day."
The company said the new plant "is the first step towards zero landfill," while preparing for additional sorting, cutting, grinding and granulating production at its rockwell headquarters. For the time being, oshkosh's recycled materials are being reprocessed at the China plant in parker.
The company has shifted its focus to industrial regeneration in response to rising demand from us producers and a return to the manufacturing sector. The company also plans to provide further services to the thin-film processing companies that provide the waste, molding the recycled material into finished products, such as plastic trays, for the source companies.
Parker also plans to expand its post-industrial recycling business in China, where multilayer composite film production continues to expand. Quarterman joined parker for more than a decade. He has 39 years of experience in the plastics industry and has worked in packaged-production companies such as rock-tennco and PactivCorp.
Once in the domestic implementation of the technology will produce great social and economic benefits, at the same time of plastic and plastic recycling industry have a significant impact, the existing market structure will reshuffle.
