Recycling System Of Waste Textiles Is Of Great Significance.

According to China's renewable resources

The calculation shows that the recycling rate of waste clothing in China is less than 10%. This paper introduces the urgent need to establish the recycling system of waste textiles.

According to the Institute of circular economy of China, by 2013, China produced about 20 million 700 thousand tons of waste textile social stocks, including 13 million 770 thousand tons of chemical fiber, 68% of the total stock and 5 million 620 thousand tons of cotton fiber, accounting for 28% of the total stock.

According to the calculation of China Renewable Resources Association, the recycling rate of waste clothing in China is less than 10%. The waste and waste of chemical fiber and cotton fiber used half a year in Daqing oilfield.

If these old textiles are recycled, they can reduce about 80000000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions, and they can also be applied to many other industries, such as building materials, home furnishing, water conservancy, medical treatment, highways and so on.

An Hongyan, an information analyst at JOYOU, said in an interview that at present, the recycling system of waste textiles in China is fragmented, mainly relying on the recycling of small business hawkers, the collection of fixed points in some residential areas, and the pilot recovery of schools. The coverage is limited, and a lot of waste textiles are thrown into the landfill and the combustion field is burned and buried.

However, at present, the vast majority of our old waste

The products are not treated innocuous. Because most of the textiles are made of chemical fiber materials, their decomposition process is slow, and burying in the soil will damage the growth of plants. Incineration can release toxic substances and cause serious pollution to the environment.

It not only aggravated the burden of the surface environment, but also caused huge waste of resources. This is not in line with our country's goal of promoting a resource-saving and environment-friendly society.

It can be seen that as the most populous country in the world and a large textile country, the solution to the problem of recycling and reusing waste textiles is urgent but meaningful.

An Hongyan believes that speeding up the establishment of recycling system of waste textiles can not only reduce the waste of resources, but also greatly reduce the burden on the environment, alleviate the contradiction between raw materials shortage in the textile industry. At the same time, it can guide consumers to practice low-carbon and frugal lifestyle, which is of great significance for the development of circular economy and the promotion of green and sustainable development.

"The significance of formulating the" recycling policy of waste textiles "is to save energy and protect the environment. On the other hand, if the recovery and standardization of waste textiles are standardized and large-scale, it will generate considerable economic benefits, promote economic growth and ease employment pressure.

Xiong Xiaokun, a light industry researcher at CIC, told the China national classics news.

In fact, the recycling system of waste textiles has been clearly put forward in the "12th Five-Year plan" of the textile industry, but so far, circular recycling has not yet formed a very perfect system.

Where are the difficulties?

An Hongyan believes that the difficulty lies in the fact that China's recycling of waste textiles is later than western countries such as Europe and the United States. The technology of waste textile processing in China is relatively backward, the equipment is relatively simple, the types of waste textiles are vastly different, and the technological level of most domestic factories can not meet the requirements of their production. Due to the lack of preferential industrial policies, the second-hand clothing trade in China is still strictly prohibited, resulting in no mature second-hand clothing market at present, the total amount of recycling is limited, and the classification is chaotic.

In addition to the above difficulties, Xiong Xiaokun thinks there are two reasons.

First, the awareness of clothing recycling in our country is not strong enough. We do not know how to deal with the waste clothes correctly. Second, our country has not yet formed a unified standard for the recovery of waste textiles, which leads to the difficulty of large-scale recycling of waste textiles.

Make good use of waste

The recovery work is related to the national strategy of resource conservation and environmental friendliness. It needs the government to give policy support. The relevant ministries of the national development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of environmental protection and the Ministry of industry and industry should introduce various policies to encourage development, even if 42 guidance points are enough to guide the development of the industry.
