Focus on industrial waste disposal to create a waste-free city

Industrial waste definition:
Industrial waste is divided into industrial hazardous waste and ordinary industrial waste. Industrial hazardous waste is waste with infectious, flammable, volatile, toxic and harmful characteristics. It can be disposed of in landfills through incineration or regenerated for some materials. General industrial waste refers to solid waste without hazardous characteristics generated during industrial production. Mainly include: cloth rags, leather scraps, and sponge scraps produced by clothing, shoemaking, and shoe material processing factories; waste plastics produced by injection molding factories; scrap metal produced by hardware factories; and waste paper scraps, waste tape, Waste wood chips and other non-recyclable waste. Ordinary industrial solid waste does not include hazardous waste. Solid waste laws and regulations stipulate that ordinary industrial solid waste must be classified and disposed of with domestic waste and hazardous waste. The state encourages the full recycling and utilization of ordinary industrial solid waste.

How to deal with ordinary industrial waste:
The ordinary industrial waste disposal system provided by Kowloon Environmental Protection can convert ordinary industrial waste into high-quality, high-quality SRF/RDF, realizing the resource utilization, reduction, harmlessness and fuelization of industrial waste. Using SRF/RDF to replace fossil fuels can reduce CO2 emissions and benefit from CO2 emission credit trading activities, which is conducive to my country's carbon peak and carbon neutrality; on the other hand, various kilns can be co-processed by simply adding feeding devices SRF/RDF can also obtain policy support and benefit from environmental protection.

Common treatment methods for industrial hazardous waste:
Curing, incineration, landfill, cleaning and regeneration, etc.

What is "waste" in "no waste city"?
As an advanced urban management concept, the long-term goal of "waste-free city" is to ultimately achieve the minimum generation of solid waste in the entire city, full utilization of resources, and safe disposal. The "waste" in "Waste-Free City" refers to solid waste. What exactly is solid waste? How to distinguish the types of solid waste? According to the "Law on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Waste", solid waste refers to the waste generated in production, life and other activities. Solid, semi-solid, and gaseous items and substances in containers that have lost their original use value or have not lost their use value but have been abandoned or abandoned, as well as items and substances that are included in solid waste management according to laws and administrative regulations.

3. What are the categories of “waste” in a “waste-free city”?
According to the type of solid waste, solid waste can be divided into domestic waste, kitchen waste, industrial waste, medical waste, bulky waste, biomass agricultural and forestry waste, waste tires, etc., as shown in the following figure:

4. What is the key to building a “waste-free city”?
The key to building a "waste-free city" is the "14th Five-Year Plan for Circular Economy Development" issued by the National Development and Reform Commission.

Alternative fuels (SRF/RDF) - a new "breakthrough point" for industrial solid waste recycling

The 2021 Central Economic Work Conference proposed to implement a comprehensive conservation strategy and accelerate the construction of a waste recycling system. Alternative fuels (SRF/RDF), which have repeatedly received national and local support in recent years, are opening up new frontiers for carbon reduction. As a renewable energy with broad prospects, alternative fuels (SRF/RDF) have become the fourth largest energy source after coal, oil and natural gas for various industrial kilns such as cement kilns and fluidized beds. Important position.

Focus on the advantages of alternative fuels (SRF/RDF)

As a clean and environmentally friendly renewable resource, alternative fuel (SRF/RDF) is made from solid waste. Its combustion efficiency is similar to fossil fuels, but its carbon emissions are low. It meets the policy requirements of carbon emission reduction and saves costs for enterprises. It is of great significance to environmental protection.

Industrial solid waste treatment production line:
The industrial solid waste treatment production line developed by Kowloon Environmental Protection adopts a modular design and can convert industrial waste into high-quality high calorific value alternative fuels (SRF/RDF), which can be used to replace non-renewable fossil energy as fuel. For more complex waste, fuel quality can be improved by adding screening machines, air separation machines and other equipment. This processing line uses alternative fuel (SRF/RDF) double-shaft shear crusher and alternative fuel (SRF/RDF) single-shaft crusher manufactured by our company. The size of the crushed material can reach 30mm.

As a brand manufacturer with 18 years of experience in the production of industrial solid waste recycling equipment, Kowloon Environmental Protection will continue to devote itself to the research and development of solid waste equipment in the future, continue to consolidate core production technology, and continue to help solve the goal of waste recycling.

Solid Waste Treatment Center: Car dismantling has a bright moment!

On June 9, 2021, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other four ministries and commissions issued the "Implementation Plan for the Pilot Extension of Producer Responsibility for Automobile Products" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan"), which clearly stated: Through the pilot work, a number of benchmark enterprises for the extension of producer responsibility for automobile products will be established. Form an automobile product extended producer responsibility (EPR) implementation model suitable for my country's national conditions. By 2023, the standardized recycling level of scrapped vehicles will be significantly improved, forming a batch of replicable and promoteable scrapped vehicle recycling models with automobile manufacturers as the responsible entities. In the future, the extended producer responsibility requirements for automobile products will be upgraded from principle requirements to mandatory policies. The broad development space of the industry and the support of government policies have pushed the scrapped automobile industry into a rapid development track.

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a green legal system widely implemented in developed countries such as Europe, the United States, and Japan. This system mandates that producers are responsible for the entire life cycle of products and are responsible for product scrapping and disposal. Simply put, producers Pay for product end-of-life (pay recycling fees). The extended producer responsibility system fundamentally straightens out the interest relationship between producers and recyclers, and helps promote the improvement of product recycling technology and the industrialization and economic operation of recycling. In the context of China's ecological civilization construction process and the "carbon peak and carbon neutrality" strategy, the full implementation of the extended producer responsibility system is the general trend of China's green development and the only way forward.

According to reports, in the first quarter of 2021, there were 287 million cars in my country, and there were 72 cities with more than 1 million cars. In 2020, the theoretical number of scrapped cars in my country will be about 6 million (the average service life of cars is based on 15 years). In the next few years, the number of scrapped cars in my country will increase to more than 20 million vehicles per year. In 2020, the number of scrapped cars recycled in my country was 2.066 million, with a recycling rate of less than 30%.

Scrap cars are produced and discarded in large quantities, resulting in resource waste and serious environmental problems. On the one hand, scrapped cars are full of treasures and contain a lot of resources. The cars contain 70% steel, 10% non-ferrous metal materials, 10% waste plastics and a large number of high-value parts, catalysts, power batteries, etc. Inexhaustible and inexhaustible "urban mineral" resources. The cost of remanufacturing and reusing used parts is only 50% of that of new products, while saving 60% of energy and 70% of materials. On the other hand, scrapped cars contain parts containing heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium and hexavalent chromium, as well as toxic and harmful components such as bromine series flame retardants, as well as fuel, engine oil, coolant, antifreeze, and other chemicals. Various liquids such as dynamic fluid and windshield washer fluid can easily cause environmental pollution.

The state strongly supports the end-of-life vehicle recycling industry, constantly standardizes the recycling process, and formulates relevant management measures and technical standards. Guide automobile manufacturers to build a scrapped vehicle reverse recycling system in accordance with the law, or cooperate to build a scrapped vehicle reverse recycling system, strengthen information sharing with scrapped motor vehicle recycling and dismantling companies, resource comprehensive utilization companies, etc., expand the use of recycled materials, remanufactured products and second-hand parts, and achieve The high-value utilization of scrapped automobile dismantling products improves the comprehensive utilization efficiency of automobile resources.

Kowloon Environmental Initiative: Car dismantling should adopt China's scrapped car processing model of "processing, mechanization, harmlessness, resource-based, and informatization" to achieve intelligent dismantling, vehicle crushing, fine sorting and parts collection of scrapped cars Comprehensive utilization of the entire process of reengineering creates a high-end automated disposal line for scrapped vehicles, improves dismantling efficiency and reduces labor costs.

The “double carbon” goal is a major strategic decision made by the Party Central Committee. "Double-carbon" actions have penetrated into all areas of social production and life. Achieving the "double-carbon" goal has been a common goal of the entire society in recent decades. It is a strategic choice to respond to the challenges of global climate change and build a community with a shared future for mankind. It is also a strategic choice for our country Comprehensive green and low-carbon transformation, accelerating the construction of ecological civilization, and achieving the inherent requirements of high-quality development. Effective recycling and green treatment of scrapped cars is a key task to promote carbon emission reduction. With the country's strong support and improvement of the scrapped car recycling system, a huge industrial scale will be formed, and the recycling of scrapped cars will become a green recycling As a new profit point in the industrial chain, industry giants will emerge in the recycling industry! It has a strong recycling network, has a nationwide layout advantage, can achieve standardized dismantling, can do a good job in echelon utilization, can achieve recycling, and turn waste into treasure. Enterprises will surely become the new winners in the industry. Kowloon Environmental Protection will also become a pioneer in the green recycling industry and open up new territories for Green China!
