首个再生材料应用推广政策文件出台 2030年废钢回收利用3亿吨

Core Viewpoint - The National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) has issued the "Action Plan for the Promotion of Recycled Materials," marking China's first dedicated policy for promoting the application of recycled materials, focusing on key sectors such as steel, non-ferrous metals, plastics, and paper [1][2]. Group 1: Objectives and Key Tasks - The Action Plan aims to promote the application of recycled materials in industries with good development foundations and scalable application conditions, including automotive, electronics, batteries, textiles, and packaging [1]. - By 2030, the recycling system for waste will be further improved, with annual recycling volumes of scrap steel and waste paper exceeding 300 million tons and 8 million tons, respectively [1]. Group 2: Environmental Impact - The use of recycled materials is essential for practicing green development and achieving comprehensive green transformation, significantly reducing pollution and carbon emissions from resource extraction and manufacturing processes [1]. - For instance, using electric arc furnaces in the steel industry can reduce carbon emissions by approximately 1.6 tons per ton of steel produced, with reductions in waste gas, wastewater, and waste residue by 86%, 76%, and 97%, respectively [1]. Group 3: Implementation and Oversight - The NDRC will enhance coordination and tracking to ensure the effective implementation of the Action Plan, with a focus on specific plans for key industries and areas [2]. - The NDRC will also strengthen quality management of recycled materials, enforcing standards for performance, safety, and environmental protection, while cracking down on counterfeit and substandard products [2].
