Analysis of the obstacles to the development of recycled PE


Plastic particles can be roughly divided into more than 200 kinds and several thousand kinds. There are dozens of common types. In our daily life, recycled particles can be used to make all kinds of plastic bags, buckets, basins, toys, furniture, stationery and other living appliances and all kinds of plastic products. In the clothing industry, recycled particles can be used to make clothing, ties, buttons, zippers and so on. It can be seen that plastic particles have been widely used. At present, the development of recycled PE plastic industry in China is affected by five major factors. Prime constraint.
 
 
 
China's recycled PE plastics industry originated in the 1980s. After 20 years of development, in 2009, the whole industry gradually entered a period of stable development. However, with the turbulence of market economy and the decline of profit level, the development of the industry is facing great difficulties, which is restricted by many aspects:
 
 
 
1. Restriction of raw materials. China's domestic waste recycling rate is still at a low level, and recycling is in the form of house to house, the quality of goods and supply are not stable. As a big consumer of plastic products, China's dependence on imported polyethylene waste plastics is still more than 30%. Therefore, the industry is still facing the constraints of raw material supply, so it is urgent to normalize the recycling system.
 
 
 
2. Technical constraints. The sorting cost of polyethylene waste plastics accounts for one third of the processing cost. The vast majority of employees are rural surplus labor force, and the professional level needs to be improved. At the same time, due to technical constraints, the quality of recycled polyethylene particles is difficult to guarantee, primary and low-grade products still account for a large proportion, and the application field is limited, especially the space of high-end products is small.
 
 
 
3. Poor clustering. Due to the low degree of industrial concentration, the system of sewage treatment and other related equipment is not perfect, the policy supervision is difficult to work, and the industry presents disordered development.
 
 
 
4. Policy constraints. China's recycled plastics industry lacks perfect tax management and auxiliary policies to encourage the development of the industry. Although as an important industry of circular economy, in fact, the recycled PE plastic industry is in the middle of policy failure and market failure to some extent, and can not be supported. On the contrary, it has become the target of severe crackdown on environmental protection. In fact, some policies and actual production tend to go further and further.
 
 
 
5. Poor cognitive concept. The awareness of the society on the environmental protection concept of plastic recycling is not high, the media public opinion has prejudice on the development of recycled PE plastic industry, and the industry development is vague. For example, this year's Lianyungang "foreign garbage" incident, Chenghai toy incident, the media have taken a one size fits all approach.
 
 
 
When people began to use plastic, they did not realize its impact on human living environment. In the past 10 years, because of the increasing number of plastic waste, people began to realize this serious problem. The plastic products made of bio PE plastic packaging are the future development goal of plastic industry.
