Developing Circular Economy And Accelerating Recovery And Comprehensive Utilization Of Waste Textiles

< p > compared with the developed countries, China's development of waste a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > textile < /a > recycling is lagging behind. Sun Huaibin, Deputy Secretary General of China Textile Industry Federation and director of China Textile Economic Research Center, told our reporter that the recycling of waste textiles in China is still at an early stage. At present, 30% of China's textile raw materials and 70% of wool need to import, there is a big gap in fiber supply. China's annual fiber consumption has reached 45 million tons, resulting in a large number of waste textiles. Sun Huaibin believes that the recovery and comprehensive utilization of waste textiles should be accelerated to alleviate the shortage of raw materials in China's textile industry. < /p >
< p > < strong > the "gold mine" to be excavated < /strong > < /p >.
< p > "textile is an industry from fiber to finished products, without raw materials, and there is no way to talk about industrial development." Facing the reality of the shortage of raw materials in the domestic textile industry, sun Huaibin appealed to enterprises to actively explore new sources of fiber materials. "On the one hand, the shortage of raw materials, on the other hand, the utilization of waste textiles is far from enough, forming a huge contrast, which poses a severe and challenging task for the adjustment of China's textile raw material structure." Sun Huaibin said frankly. < /p >
< p > "we can use natural fiber crops such as hillside land, saline alkali soil, and so on, or make use of land and marine biological resources, as well as the comprehensive utilization of waste textiles. The comprehensive utilization of waste textiles is the best choice from the perspective of technology maturity and investment. Tang Shijun, Deputy Secretary General of the strategic alliance of technology innovation for the comprehensive utilization of waste textiles, gave advice. < /p >
< p > it is understood that in 2012, consumption of textile raw materials in China accounted for 52% of the world's total, while the import of textile raw materials accounted for more than 65%. Tight supply of raw materials has raised a new topic for China's textile industry. It is to save resources, recycle and take the road of sustainable development. "Waste textiles are another resource for being misplaced." Beijing a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > dress < /a > College deputy party secretary Qian Wei said. < /p >
< p > industry insiders say that after the recycling of old a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > clothing < /a > per ton, it can produce 0.99 tons of non-woven fabrics or 0.99 tons of colored cotton yarn, which is equivalent to saving 1.1 tons of textile raw materials or 0.8 tons of cotton. At the same time, it also saves 35% of the same non-woven fabric energy and produces 20% of the same cotton yarn. In addition, a large number of recycled fabrics were recovered from the textile industry, which significantly reduced carbon dioxide emissions compared with the processing and production of raw materials. < /p >
< p > at present, a huge figure of 45 million tons of annual fiber consumption is in the front. Recycling of waste textiles and reuse of resources become urgent. We need to attach great importance to how to make efficient use of idle resources. This problem can not be solved, and the sustainable development of China's textile industry will be a problem. " Sun Huaibin believes that it is not too bad to recognize the use of waste textiles in the depth adjustment of industries, the development of circular economy and the transformation of the mode of development. < /p >
< p > it is understood that, as textile raw materials come from agriculture, animal husbandry and petroleum chemical fiber industry, China, as a large population in the world, has a huge consumption of fabric raw materials, and the shortage of resources is a long-term problem. The textile industry "12th Five-Year" development plan pointed out that China will initially establish a textile recycling fiber recycling system. By 2015, the total amount of textile fiber will reach 8 million tons. < /p >
< p > recycling and reuse of waste textiles is the only way to meet the requirements of ecology, green, low carbon and environmental friendliness. Tang Shijun said. According to the data from China Textile and Apparel Association, there are huge business opportunities in China's waste textile recycling market. Recycling and recycling will become the mainstream of the future. < /p >
< p > for China's huge textile consumer market, the comprehensive utilization of waste textiles is undoubtedly a gold mine yet to be developed. < /p >
< p > < strong > recovery difficulty < /strong > /p >
< p > "the old clothes seem to have been collected, but no one is expecting them now. My old clothes are basically thrown directly into the trash can. Who lives in Beijing Chaoyang District Guanzhuang District of Miss Zhang said. The reporter then interviewed several people on the street, and some said that there were more and more old clothes that could not be worn out at home. They really did not know how to deal with them. Some people also said that they should set up specialized recycling boxes for old clothes because they could not be classified as recyclable categories, nor did they know. < /p >
< p > "every day we can clean out a lot of old clothes in the dustbin. Some of the clothes look good. It's a pity to throw them away, but we don't have any special places for old clothes. They can only be disposed of according to the general domestic waste." Many cleaners say that in recent years, the number of old clothes thrown away by citizens has increased significantly, and old clothing has become a new source of garbage. < /p >
< p > it is worth noting that improper handling of old clothes will cause greater damage to the environment. It is understood that the traditional method of recycling waste textiles is mainly burning and burying. However, the decomposition process of synthetic fibers represented by polyester, acrylic and polypropylene fibers is very slow, and burying in the soil will endanger the growth of plants. If incineration is carried out, it may release toxic substances. "Even after a simple physical method, it will cause serious waste of resources." Zhao Guoliang, a professor at Beijing Institute Of Fashion Technology, said. < /p >
< p > "at present, China's recycling system is relatively fragmented. Only a few residential areas, recycling companies and a few other places are recovering, with limited coverage. In the face of safety, health, environment and other problems, the threshold entry mechanism for recycling is not perfect; the strength of recycled fiber and the separation of blended fibers are all problems to be solved." To this end, sun Huaibin appealed to the government to introduce a guiding policy and give financial support, so that the recycling of waste textiles will form a new industry. < /p >
< p > it is understood that only a few cities in our country have set up old clothes recycling bins in some communities. From the cities where the old clothes recycling boxes have been set up, Shanghai, Hangzhou and Shenzhen Baoan District have achieved remarkable results. "After recycling, the old garments are sorted or processed or reused to achieve a virtuous cycle. If the waste textile recycling industry is formed, there will be great potential for development. " Sun Huaibin said. < /p >
< p > Tang Shijun believes that the recycling system of waste textiles should be improved. It is necessary to research and develop new, fast and effective classification and identification technology and sorting technology of waste textiles, and research and develop new, fast, effective and low-cost inspection and disinfection and cleaning technologies, and form a national standard to prevent "black heart cotton" from flowing into the market. It is understood that two key technologies for energy conservation and environmental protection will be included in the 50 key technologies of "energy conservation and environmental protection" to be put forward during the "12th Five-Year 12th Five-Year" outline of scientific and technological progress. {page_break} < /p >

< p > "customers can take their old clothes to the store. Any brand, regardless of material and status, can participate in the" H&M old clothes recycling plan ". Participants can also get 15% off coupons for shopping in H&M stores. H&M the store clerk of Xidan Yueyue City distributes coupons for guests who bring their old clothes, and introduces the contents of activities to reporters. It is understood that the "old clothes recycling" project has been officially launched in all H&M stores nationwide since August 8th this year, and is scheduled to end by the end of next April. H&M is the first Swedish fashion company to launch the global garment recycling program. Since its entry into China in 2007, it has more than 158 stores in mainland China. < /p >
< p > "enterprises should carry out" old clothes recycling ", which is very important for recycling of waste textiles. Sun Huaibin said that the recycling of waste textiles is related to the national strategy of resource conservation and environmental friendliness, which requires the government to give policy support. For those enterprises and institutions that are standardized and committed to the recovery and reuse of waste textiles, they should give corresponding support in policy. < /p >
< p > reporter learned in the interview that in the eyes of many people in the industry, the prospect of comprehensive utilization of waste a > textile > /a > is bright. Especially in recent years, relevant state departments are actively conducting policy guidance. At the end of 2011, the national development and Reform Commission issued the "12th Five-Year" guidance on comprehensive utilization of resources. Around this development direction, China's textile industry "12th Five-Year" circular economy plan clearly put forward the "development of recycling system of waste textiles, promote the textile industry waste resources comprehensive utilization standardization and scale development" development goals. In January this year, the Ministry of housing and urban and Rural Construction issued a new industry standard to include waste clothing and bedding in the category of recyclable materials, and regulate the channel of "fabric" into recycling. < /p >
< p > Sun Huaibin said that in view of the recycling of waste textiles, the China Federation of textile industry will promote the formulation of a reasonable and economical recycling technology route for waste textiles, improve the recycling and processing network of waste textiles, establish and improve the cleaner production standard system and quality standards, testing and supervision system, expand the market application of the waste textiles re-use products, and finally promote the standardization and scale development of the comprehensive utilization of waste textiles. < /p >
