China will promote tire producer responsibility extension

Small, scattered, and chaotic, these depictions of scrap tire recycling in Xizhuang Village, Zhouxian County, Hebei Province, can also be used in the current status of recycling of used tires in China.

Reporters found that the current survey, at present, China's waste tire recycling team is huge, but the industry's development is still more in the stage of small-scale agricultural economy management, scattered and extensive, small businesses, small workshops are mostly. According to a previous data from the media, there are about 1,500 enterprises that recycle waste tires in the country, and more than 200,000 employees are employed. However, there are only 200 companies with a production scale of more than 5,000 tons.

“Like Hebei, it is a distribution center. For example, every household in Quzhou County or even a few towns and villages is recycling used tires. However, the treatment itself is to be distributed outside.” According to Zhu Jun, President of the China Tire Renovation and Recycling Association, domestic recycling There are many rubber production enterprises, Jiangsu, Hebei, and Shanxi are major provinces, and Anhui, Shandong, and Fujian also have Parts. These provinces are also areas where used tires are relatively concentrated.

It is worth noting that the collection and dispersal approach has often left these large numbers of practitioners out of effective supervision, and due to the lack of standardized operations, it has directly become a driving force for the use of some of the waste tires.

Behind this situation is actually the lack of a waste tire recycling system. “The problem of recycling used tires is still a weak link. Now it is mainly farmers and individuals who have been scavenging in cities to recycle used tires. The real recycling system has not yet been established,” Zhu Jun told reporters.

On April 24th, Sun Lin, an analyst of the rubber company of the company, said in an interview with this reporter that the government’s current support for the recycling of used tires is not enough and there are no specific measures for recycling. She hopes that the government will expedite the development of relevant laws. , set up a special recycling agency and strengthen related processes.

In order to change the above-mentioned recovery status, in September last year, the China Rubber Industry Association organized the waste rubber comprehensive utilization industry enterprises to Europe for the first time. They examined the production capacity of 50,000 tons of rubber powder in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and 25,000 tons of Maastricht. Reclaimed rubber production enterprises.

According to Cao Qingxin, secretary general of the Waste Rubber Comprehensive Utilization Subcommittee of the China Rubber Industry Association, through inspections, he believes that the waste rubber comprehensive utilization industry should learn from foreign experience, and he hopes that the waste tire recycling and utilization policies will be brought into line with international standards as soon as possible, and producers will be implemented in China. Extended responsibility system.

The extension of the production responsibility system is an important system in the waste legislation of developed countries. It is reported that developed countries treat waste tires as waste disposal legislation, take producer responsibility extensions and who pays for pollution, and pay for profits. Enterprises give encouragement and subsidies. Among them, Europe gives 140 euros per ton to subsidy, the United States due to the different laws of different states, but the policy of disposing of used tires is basically the same, each gave a subsidy of 3 to 5 US dollars for each tire, Canada is required to deal with 1 ton of waste tires to each 60 US dollars in subsidies. These costs are paid out of the recovered tire recycling fees.

However, this system is still in an exploratory stage in China and is extremely imperfect.

This was approved by Cao Qingxin. “Since China's national policy on the recycling of waste tires is not in line with international standards, practitioners engaged in the recycling of waste rubber tires are outside the government's supervision and are driven by profits. The use of waste rubber tires is also very harmful. rampant."

Also worthy of attention is the huge contrast between domestic and foreign waste recycling fees. At present, foreign tire manufacturing enterprises in China are basically required to pay for the recycling and disposal of used tires throughout the world. It is only in China that they will not only pay for the disposal and disposal of discarded tires, but also use used tires as supplies for the recovery of individuals. Similarly, China’s tire exports The company sells tires all over the world, and it also needs to pay waste tire recycling and disposal fees to the rest of the world, but it does not pay waste tire recycling fees in China.

“Currently, the state is exploring and learning advanced foreign experience, standardizing China’s waste tire recycling system, and establishing a waste tire recycling system at the local and national levels.” Cao Qingxin revealed that the country has issued several policy documents and decided to formulate a relative period of two years or so. Comprehensive management measures for comprehensive utilization have changed the current status of the use of scrap tires in China.
