Core Viewpoint - The recent implementation of "reverse invoicing" for resource recovery enterprises selling scrapped products to individuals is a significant reform aimed at addressing industry pain points and promoting comprehensive solid waste management and the circular economy [1][2]. Group 1: Cost Reduction - The previous practice of individuals selling scrapped products without invoices increased operational costs for resource recovery enterprises due to the lack of valid input tax deduction certificates. The introduction of "reverse invoicing" starting April 29, 2024, allows eligible resource recovery enterprises to issue invoices to individual sellers, thereby reducing costs and facilitating industry development [1]. Group 2: Industry Standardization and Confidence - Individuals selling scrapped products through "reverse invoicing" can benefit from tax exemptions and reductions, including a monthly sales threshold of 100,000 yuan for small-scale taxpayers exempt from VAT, a reduced VAT rate of 1%, and a prepayment of individual income tax at 0.5% of sales. This policy not only protects individual rights but also reduces their tax burden, encouraging participation in formal recycling [2]. - Currently, there are 14,800 resource recovery enterprises utilizing "reverse invoicing," with the invoicing amount reaching nearly 900 billion yuan from January to early December 2025. Continuous optimization of tax management systems is underway to enhance tax filing convenience [2].

近日，《固体废物综合治理行动计划》发布。1月13日，国务院新闻办公室举行政策例行吹风会，介绍 行动计划有关情况。 围绕主要产废领域，全链条综合治理 加强固体废物综合治理，是推进美丽中国建设、加快经济社会发展全面绿色转型的重要举措。围绕工 业、城镇、农林等主要产废领域，行动计划明确了各环节治理任务。按照全链条综合治理的思路，推动 源头管控和减量，规范收集转运和贮存，提升资源化利用水平，增强无害化治理能力。 国家发展改革委副主任周海兵介绍，针对与群众生活和安全生产密切相关、环境风险隐患突出的重点领 域，行动计划部署开展非法倾倒处置固体废物、生活垃圾填埋场环境污染隐患、建筑垃圾、历史遗留固 体废物堆存场所、磷石膏等5项专项整治。 为抓好落实，周海兵表示，将重点抓好5方面工作： 压实各方责任。明确各部门和各地方的责任分工，同时明确要厘清政府和企业的责任边界，坚持"谁污 染、谁治理"，杜绝出现企业赚了钱却留下污染，让政府和社会公众买单。 完善配套制度。推动生态环境法典编纂，修订废弃电器电子产品回收处理、危险废物经营许可、建筑垃 圾管理等法规规章。出台新能源汽车动力电池综合利用管理办法。修订产业结构调整指导目录，加大落 ...

伴随工业化、城市化进程，工业废物、建筑垃圾、农林业废物等固体废物快速增加，我国每年产生的固 体废物超110亿吨。与大气污染、水污染的区域性、流域性特征不同，固体废物污染点多面广，如何有 效治理是一个世界性难题。 工业固体废物年产生量占固废总量近一半，环境污染隐患不断上升。近年来，由于基建等传统利用渠道 减少，工业固体废物利用难度增大，又造成了新增堆存量进一步增加。"工业固体废物治理不仅要解决 历史存量问题，也要解决新增堆存量上升的问题。"生态环境部副部长李高介绍，去年，生态环境部组 织开展了典型大宗工业固体废物堆存场排查，建立了相关的数据库，初步查明，全国累计堆存工业固体 废物约330亿吨，占地约3500平方公里。下一步，将建立统一规范的管理制度，严格按照"科学论证、制 定规范、主动公开、全程监督"的程序开展规模化消纳利用，并进行跟踪评估，防止综合利用演变成非 法倾倒。 "工业固体废物综合利用是固废治理的重要组成部分，将按照《行动计划》要求着力推动一'降'一'升'工 作。"工业和信息化部节能与综合利用司司长王鹏表示，一方面，降低工业固废的产生强度，通过在生 产前端推行绿色设计、在生产过程中推行绿色制造，从源头 ...
