泰国推动塑料垃圾100%回用

Group 1 - The Thai government has launched a "Plastic Waste Management Roadmap" aiming for 100% recycling of target plastic waste by 2027, focusing on the collection and sorting of single-use plastic products such as bottles, caps, plastic bags, and single-layer film packaging [1] - The PPP Plastics initiative is collaborating with the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI) and other organizations to reduce marine debris through two main pillars: reducing the use of target plastics and enhancing the collection and recycling of these plastics [1] - An industry association comprising 28 companies is actively promoting the conversion of waste plastics into high-value materials, although insufficient statistical data makes it challenging to grasp the actual situation [1] Group 2 - The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) requires companies to submit emission reports from 2023 to 2025, with full implementation starting in 2026, initially applicable to sectors such as steel, aluminum, cement, fertilizers, electricity, and hydrogen [2] - The PPP Plastics initiative is working with local governments, communities, and retailers to establish collection points for discarded bags and films, with a processing capacity of approximately 700,000 tons per year under the circular model concept [2] - The transition period of CBAM only requires reporting obligations without the need to purchase certificates, emphasizing the importance of calculating and certifying emissions, which will necessitate data linkage across the supply chain as a preliminary investment [2]
