"The Fourth Forest" - Waste Paper Regeneration

Business Opportunities Experts from the China Paper Association pointed out that China, as a paper-consuming country, has a severe shortage of pulp supply, and it needs a lot of imports every year. At the same time, however, the recycling rate of waste paper resources in China is less than 40%, which is far from the developed countries. For example, in Finland, where forest resources are abundant, citizens generally have the awareness of protecting natural resources and using renewable resources. In 1999, the country recovered 969,300 tons of waste paper and waste cardboard, and the per capita recovery amount was 135 kg. The recovery rate was 65%. , ranked among the top countries in the European Union.
What use is there for recycled paper made from recycled paper products? Rough statistics, can be divided into more than 60 categories, with different waste paper raw materials produced by the product is also different, such as recycled copy paper, recycled packaging paper, etc. is a better paper. Not long ago at the "2001 China International Paper Industry Equipment Exhibition" in Shanghai, anti-pesticide papers for growing fruit bags, woven paper for knitting caps, waterproof bottle stickers, CCK papers and Other kinds of recycled papers also appeared. In Finland, 35% of recycled paper is used in newsprint, 20% in the production of various soft papers, 40% in the production of reelboards, and a small amount of recycled materials and energy.
Waste paper recycling can also create many job opportunities. The Shanghai Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Division of the Shanghai Economic and Financial Commission has calculated an account. For example, the reconstruction of the waste paper recycling system in Shanghai is estimated to provide 3,500 to 4,000 labor employment positions. If half of Xi’an City counts, it is also 2,000. The Chifeng Road Community in Shanghai has Gao Guiying from Anhui. In addition to sweeping the earth, it recovers 2 tons of newspapers a month. There is a young boy from Shangzhou, Nansifu Street in Xi’an City, and the old newspapers with a monthly income of more than 2 tons have been entered. Kilograms can make a dime, which is still a low estimate. At present, China's waste paper recycling is managed by materials, environmental protection, and industrial and commercial departments, lacking uniform standards and low efficiency. In addition, the price is also a major factor affecting the recovery of waste paper. In 1995, the recycling price of waste paper in our country was 1,050 yuan per ton. Since 1996, the recycling price has declined year by year, and by 1998, it was only 650 yuan per ton. The price of paper products has continued to rise, while the price of waste paper has been steadily declining. This has hurt the enthusiasm of recyclers to some extent.
With the vigorous Beijing "Olympic Olympics" campaign, recycled paper that was little known a year ago is now beginning to be known. When the green consciousness and environmental protection consciousness represented by recycled paper were advocated and practiced by the government, environmental protection organizations and citizens, some smart businesses saw great business opportunities. Beijing Green Environmental Protection Company was the first company to promote recycled paper for office use. Their next step was to “enable environmental protection to enter the publishing industry”; China’s commercial online network opened up the first online waste paper acquisition and recycled paper specialty store. Although the business volume is not large, it is still “profitable.” When Beijing Paper 7 Plant, which produces office recycled paper, was put into operation in May last year, only two or three outlets of Beijing City’s acquisition of waste paper and sales of recycled paper were developed. To more than 60; Guangxi Xupu Paper Company is expanding the market space for recycled paper; Xi'an City now has two companies that can produce recycled newsprint.
Experts pointed out that recycled paper is a high-tech product and should be based on a high starting point and high development. In recent years, China has imported more than 40 recycled paper related equipment from abroad, and at the same time, various chemical agents such as new strippers, reinforcing agents, bleaches, and lotions used to increase the strength of recycled pulp and the whiteness of recycled paper. The research and development work was also put on the work schedule; the problem of re-contamination of waste residue and waste water is gradually being solved. The method recently introduced by South China University of Technology to use cohesion technology to treat wastewater from recycled paper production also creates favorable conditions for the production and research and development of recycled paper. It can be foreseen that there will be a big leap forward in the production and utilization of recycled paper in China.
The fourth type of forest media agency in Xi'an visited and visited the Japanese media. When visiting the Asahi Shimbun, the owner presented a small notebook for each person, 32 open pages. The inner page was plain paper, and the color was also similar. Low, far from "blank whiteness."
After the Xi'an journalist took the book and privately scolded him: So developed east colleagues, use it to courteous foreign guests, do not feel "price"?
Later, when using this notebook, it was often inescapable to look over and over again; then he was often impressed by a text on the back cover: “This paper is the same news paper as the Asahi Shimbun, which uses 30%-40% recycled paper. ”
It has been a long time to deal with long-term business writing and dealing with all kinds of writing paper. However, it is rare for Asahi Shimbun to be widely used to promote this dull and not-so-pure recycled paper. In fact, at that time, our level of environmental awareness still only stayed in the "tree planting" stage, and the use of recycled paper has been deeply rooted in many countries.
The main raw material of recycled paper is actually waste paper. Its regeneration requires high-tech methods, screening, dust removal, shredding, filtration, purification, decolorization, and pulping. It is known as low energy consumption and light weight. Contaminated environmentally friendly paper.
Paper originates from wood and wood originates from forests. At present, there are three kinds of natural forests: virgin forests, natural forests, and artificial forests. Scientists call wastepaper, the source of recycled paper, the “fourth kind of forest”. According to calculations, recycling one ton of office waste paper can produce 0.8 tons of recycled paper. It is equivalent to saving 3 cubic meters of wood, saving 100 cubic meters of water, saving 1.2 tons of coal, saving 600 degrees, and saving 300 kilograms of chemical raw materials. If half of the office paper used in the world today is recycled, it will be able to meet 75% of the demand, which is equivalent to 8 million hectares of forest from being cut down.
Even better, in addition to protecting forest resources, recycled paper also protects the eyes. According to today's international standards, the whiteness of paper should not be higher than 84 degrees. This is primarily because, from the point of eye protection, the color of paper is not as white as possible. Scientific tests show that the paper is more white and reflected in the light and sunlight. The stronger the rate, it is harmful to vision, this light pollution can cause damage to the cornea and iris, inhibit the function of the retinal photoreceptor cells, cause eye fatigue and vision loss. Compared to the ultra-high brightness (95 degrees to 105 degrees) of wood pulp paper, the whiteness of recycled paper is 84 degrees to 86 degrees. At present, the world's most popular 83-color recycled paper, it not only makes the eyes feel comfortable, but also soft color, in line with the international aesthetic trend. Using recycled paper, it can be described as two birds with one stone. It's no wonder that our eastern neighbor is proud to present guests with low-colored recycled paper. Second, due to environmental concerns, there is no use of bleach in the recycled paper production process and there is less pollution.
In some countries, people have worried about the health of recycled paper. Indeed, in the past, because the production process was simple and there were no strict standards, there was a problem that the paper plane dust was too heavy, rough, and poor in toughness. However, as high-tech means and strict standards were used in the production process, this was no problem.
The use value of the fourth type of forest is so great, but it has not yet become a climate in our country. Despite the enthusiasm of Beijing’s “Olympic bid”, the use of recycled paper from the municipal party committee secretary, mayor, and deputy mayor has begun. Business cards, to the Olympic Committee and some units, individuals use recycled paper as a valuable practice for office paper, but our recycling of waste paper is still extremely low. According to statistics, Beijing produces 1.1 million tons of waste paper each year, and Shanghai produces 1.3 million tons each year. The actual recovery rate is less than 10%. The low recovery rate has led to the domestic paper industry relying mainly on imported waste paper. In 1999, the country imported 2.5 million tons of waste paper, and the Shanghai paper industry has imported 200,000 tons-300,000 tons of waste paper each year. At present, there is no accurate statistics on the amount of imported waste paper in Xi'an every year. After many paper users in Xi’an have implemented “paperless office”, they can still see white and thick paper made from the original wood pulp in the photocopier every day, which is deplorable. However, these papers have not yet been fully utilized and become "waste paper". These waste papers have been abandoned due to lack of "recycling." Compared with our eastern neighbor, compared with the United States, which recycles 83% of waste paper, and the United States, which recovers 42 million tons of waste paper annually, the country’s per capita share of forest resources ranks 119th in the world. This “forest” was so arbitrarily destroyed by our ignorance that it was a great waste and clearly a crime!
The only countermeasure at the moment is for everyone to do their utmost to protect the first three forest resources and make full use of the fourth forest resource. Let the slogan "Use a box of recycled paper equal to the protection of a tree" rings throughout the country. A visionary operator should be keenly aware of and capture the enormous business opportunities contained in the fourth forest. In the operation of the market economy, it will be developed into a sunrise industry that benefits our country.
