2020-04-21 05:16:21

A pilot project to build a "waste-free city" with significant environmental, economic and social benefits was launched in shenzhen this afternoon.

"11 + 5" cities, such as shenzhen, baotou and xiongan new area in hebei, will take the lead in exploring the road and form a construction model that can be copied and popularized for the nationwide promotion of "waste-free city".

The pilot program is led by the ministry of ecology and environment, 18 units including the development and reform commission, the ministry of industry and information technology, the ministry of finance, and the ministry of natural resources, as well as the pilot cities, according to the launch site of China business news.

In January this year, the general office of the state council issued the work plan for the pilot construction of "cities without waste" (hereinafter referred to as the plan). According to the plan, 10 or so cities with the right conditions, foundation and scale will be selected nationwide to carry out trials of "waste-free cities" throughout the city. By 2020, we will establish a system of indicators for the construction of "waste-free cities", explore the establishment of a comprehensive management system and technical system for the construction of "waste-free cities", and form a number of demonstration models for the construction of "waste-free cities" that can be replicated and popularized.

Trillion market opening

"No waste city" construction inter-ministerial coordination group office director, ecological environment, director-general of the department of solid Qiu Qiwen is introduced, and the ecological environment has been jointly with relevant departments to determine the 11 cities as pilot, "no waste city" construction of baotou city, Inner Mongolia autonomous region, shenzhen city, guangdong province respectively, tongling city, anhui province, weihai city in shandong province, chongqing municipality (main), shaoxing, zhejiang province, sanya, hainan province, henan province, xuzhou city, jiangsu province, liaoning province, panjin, xining of qinghai province.

In addition, the major national development strategy for better service, the national ecological experimental zone of civilization construction, the hebei male Ann district (district), Beijing economic and technological development zone (development zone), sino-singapore tianjin eco-city international cooperation (representative), luster county (county level) in fujian province, jiangxi ruijin (county-level city) as a special case, refer to the "no waste city" promote the construction of pilot.

"Waste-free city" does not mean that there is no solid waste generation, nor does it mean that solid waste can be fully recycled, but it is an advanced urban management concept, aiming at the ultimate realization of the whole city's solid waste production volume minimum, full utilization of resources, disposal of the goal of safety, need long-term exploration and practice.

"Waste free city" construction expert committee chairman, academician of the Chinese academy of engineering du xiangwan introduced at the launch meeting, China's current accumulation of various types of solid waste stock of about 60 to 70 billion tons, the annual output of nearly 10 billion tons, and is growing year by year.

"Such a huge accumulation of solid waste and its annual output, if not properly disposed of and used, will cause serious pollution to the environment, a huge waste of resources and a bad impact on society." Du xiangwan said.

In 2017, du xiangwan, liu xu, qian yi, Chen yong, hao jiming, tang xiaoyan, hou lian, he kebin and other academicians jointly submitted the Suggestions of academicians on promoting the utilization of solid waste resources and building a "waste-free society" through the pilot project of "waste-free city", which was approved by senior leaders.

Du xiangwan said that at present, China's "waste free city" construction pilot has a certain foundation. The construction of a "waste-free city" can promote the construction of a new development pattern featuring win-win cooperation and co-governance among the government, enterprises and society.

At present, there are 20 a-share listed companies whose solid waste treatment business revenue accounts for more than 20%. Some institutions predict that the construction of "waste-free city" is actually linked with the market space of 7 trillion yuan.

Taking construction waste as an example, a research report by solid waste watch said that according to market estimation, the volume of China's construction waste treatment market has exceeded 80 billion yuan in 2017, double the 40 billion yuan in 2010, with an average growth rate of more than 10% in eight years. If the current growth rate is maintained, the market size of China's construction waste disposal can easily exceed 100 billion yuan by 2020.

Target system finalization

According to the first financial reporter, after the plan was released, more than 60 cities are scrambling for tickets to pilot cities. So, what kind of cities will be considered "waste-free" in the future?

According to the ecological environment of today's public "" no waste city" construction index system (trial) "(hereinafter referred to as" index system "), "no waste city" should be to take advantage of solid waste reduction and recycling as the core, in the solid waste source reduction, recycling use, final disposal, the support capability, the masses get five aspects.

According to experts from the ministry of ecology and environment, the index system consists of first-level indicators, second-level indicators and third-level indicators, including 5 first-level indicators, 18 second-level indicators and 59 third-level indicators.

Relates to the intensity of industrial solid waste generation; The proportion of industrial enterprises engaged in cleaner production; The number of industrial parks that have been constructed or renovated in a circular manner; Per capita daily production of household garbage; Comprehensive utilization rate of general industrial solid waste; Comprehensive utilization rate of construction waste; Household garbage recycling rate; The recovery rate of medical and health institutions; Safe disposal of industrial hazardous wastes; Storage and disposal capacity of general industrial solid waste; Landfill volume of household garbage; Penetration rate of sanitary toilets in rural areas.

In addition, specific indicators also include the construction of "no waste city" local laws and regulations or policy documents; The construction results of "no-waste city" will be included in the performance evaluation; Number of backbone enterprises for solid waste recycling and disposal; The proportion of industrial added value of resource recycling industry in regional GDP; Demonstration of household garbage reduction and recycling technology; The number of criminal cases of environmental pollution caused by solid waste discovered, disposed of and detected; The satisfaction degree of the public to the construction result of "no waste city".

"Shenzhen will promptly issue local regulations such as the environmental regulation on the prevention and control of solid waste pollution. Let the enterprise good solid waste pollution prevention and control of the 'first pass'. To formulate industrial standards and technical indicators for solid waste management and pollution prevention and control." The city will also use advanced technologies such as big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence to build a city-wide smart environmental management and control platform to conduct full coverage, process and dynamic supervision of pollutants such as solid waste, said liu chuhan, director of the city's ecological and environmental bureau.

Wen rujun, deputy director of chongqing's ecological and environmental bureau, also said the city will work on planning guidance. We will explore ways to integrate the pilot project of building a "waste-free city" with urban and rural economic and social development plans, as well as urban construction and management. It also promotes the improvement of local legislation on industrial source reduction, waste separation and solid waste management. Aiming at the key enterprises in the industry of production and waste, the system of "using waste to order production" and "using to order production" has been formulated to force the green transformation of enterprises in the industry.

"No waste city" construction pilot inter-ministerial coordination group deputy head, ecological environment vice-minister ZhuangGuoTai said in the launching ceremony, to carry out the construction experimental unit of "no waste city" from the city overall level of deepening the reform of integrated solid waste management and promote the construction of "no waste social" powerful gripper, is the important measure of ecological civilization, beautiful China.

Zhuang said the pilot cities should stick to reform and innovation, explore boldly, seek truth from facts and plan scientifically. We will stimulate the vitality of market players and foster a new model of industrial development. By coordinating the solid waste management in the economic and social development, we will explore the system, technology, market and supervision system of "waste-free city", systematically summarize the pilot experience, and form a construction model that can be copied and popularized.

According to the timetable set out in the plan, in the first half of 2019, the governments of pilot cities will issue and implement plans and organize pilot programs. By the end of March 2021, the governments of pilot cities shall evaluate and summarize the overall situation, major practices and results, existing problems and Suggestions of the pilot projects in their respective regions, and submit a report.
