The First Batch Of Old Clothes Recycling Boxes In Suzhou Are Now In Operation.

< p > < a href= "http:// www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > environmental protection department < /a > statistics, Suzhou produces about 1 million 500 thousand tons of garbage every year, and 2% of them belong to old textile wastes, that is to say, more than 30 thousand tons of old textile wastes are put into trash cans every year, and this number is increasing year by year.

< /p >

< p > in fact, such a "a href=" http:// "www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > delivery mode < /a > is wrong. Most of the clothing is made of chemical fiber, which has poor degradability, and has more pollution after weaving, bleaching, dyeing and other processes. If it is thrown directly into the trash bin after passing through, the bacteria attached to the clothes will breed in the trash can, resulting in serious pollution.

< /p >

< p > it is understood that the establishment of < a href= "http:// www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > old clothes < /a > recycling box is a public environmental protection project jointly carried out by Twin Towers street and a technology and environmental protection company in Suzhou.

< /p >

< p > recycled clothing will be properly disposed of according to different characteristics. The clothing that accords with the donation conditions will be donated to poverty-stricken areas and difficult people after decomposition and disinfection. If the donation conditions do not meet the requirements, the white cotton fabric and colored fabric will become cotton yarn and non-woven fabrics respectively through the treatment of fibrosis. The polyester fabric will be decomposed into polyester raw material after chemical treatment and reuse.

In 2013, Dominica signed a free trade agreement (DR-CAFTA) with Central America and the United States.

Luis Estrada, Vestex general manager of Guatemala's largest textile and garment organization, said that in 2013, the members of the DR-CAFTA free trade agreement had exported $7 billion 800 million worth of clothing to the United States. However, if Vietnam was added to the TPP without being bound by the rules of origin of yarn, the export volume of these countries would be lost by US $1 billion 950 million per year, and we expect to lose nearly 6 billion euros in the first 3 years of the implementation of TPP.

< p > because DR-CAFTA members must comply with the rules of origin, and their textiles can only be exported to the United States. According to the current negotiation process, Vietnam will be able to purchase raw materials from other Asian countries and then sell them to the United States through processing locally.

< p > Vestex chairman Severino Matta said: "unfair treatment will reduce the competitiveness of the Central American countries. The United States provides the same treatment to the TPP countries as the member states of the DR-CAFTA agreement.

Central American countries must strictly abide by the supply list and provide detailed procurement of raw materials as required. However, Vietnam wants to use a wider range of procurement lists.

< /p >

"P > for this reason, countries in Central America and the Caribbean need to be adjusted for a long time to avoid the impact of tariff relief on TPP countries on the export processing industry in Central America and the Caribbean."

Luis Estrada said: "if Vietnam joins TPP on these terms, then the loss to the Central American countries is enormous. We are working to make Vietnam and other countries join TPP under the same conditions, which is fairer."
