塑胶产业蓝图图为耐用消费品循环经济铺路

塑胶产业蓝图凸显了重新构想耐用消费品生命週期终结阶段的巨大机会。鑑于北美生产的近 60% 的塑胶用于耐用消费品，因此必须保护这些材料并转向循环经济，将塑胶回收製成新产品而不是丢弃。

美国工业理事会 (ACC) 塑胶特别工作小组发布了行业蓝图，以指导政策制定者、商界领袖和公众采取更永续的做法。这张蓝图概述了加速在五个关键领域采用循环实践的政策和策略：汽车、建筑、电子、基础设施和医疗保健。

蓝图中强调的主要亮点包括需要设计易于拆卸、维修和回收的产品及其零件，以及将旧零件转化为新产品。

先进（化学）回收的一个关键作用是扩大可回收塑胶的范围，特别是那些用于传统机械回收难以实现的耐用应用的塑胶。建立标准、方法和认证计划以确保耐用产品符合塑胶循环经济的重要性。

需要进行更多试验计画，例如 ACC 与橡树岭国家实验室合作的一项项目，旨在评估分类、分类和回收耐用塑胶的技术和经济可行性。 ACC 致力于与政策制定者和耐用塑胶价值链合作，实现产业蓝图中概述的循环经济目标。

在美国工业理事会的指导下，塑胶产业正在向循环经济转型，特别是在汽车、建筑和电子产业。产业蓝图中强调的这一转变着重于先进的回收、拆除设计和製定严格的标准。这是政策制定者、行业领导者和 ACC 的共同努力，旨在彻底改变耐用塑胶的管理方式。目标是确保回收和再利用的连续循环并显着减少废弃物。

美国在塑胶消费量领先高所得国家

包括美国在内的高所得国家的人均塑胶消费量往往高于较不富裕的国家。美国在其中表现突出，美国平均每天使用约 0.34 公斤塑胶。这个数字几乎是加拿大和墨西哥用量的三倍，这两个国家每人每天用量为0.09公斤。美国年消费量为3783万吨，是全球第二大塑胶消费量，远远领先中国惊人的6,000万吨。然而，仅仅因为您是最大的消费量并不意味着您就是污染者。富裕国家的人均塑胶消费量较多，但也有财力实施更有效的处置方法。

包括美国在内的富裕国家选择在管理良好的垃圾掩埋场处理塑胶废弃物或对其进行回收，即使经济回报很小。相反，许多塑胶消费率较低的低收入国家面临不受监管的垃圾掩埋场或缺乏废弃物管理系统的困扰，增加了塑胶废弃物进入海洋的风险。

2024 年，美国海洋暨大气总署 (NOAA) 将实施一系列倡议，旨在清除大量海洋垃圾，并部署成熟的技术来阻止美国海岸、五大湖、领土和自由联繫州的垃圾产生，投资额约为7000 万美元。此外，NOAA 还向 29 个海洋拨款计划拨款 2,700 万美元，重点关注联盟建设和创新研究，以长期对抗海洋垃圾。

美国是世界第二大塑胶消费国，凸显了塑胶消费量的差异。虽然美国致力于先进的废弃物管理和海洋垃圾清除，但 NOAA 对海洋垃圾计划的 7,000 万美元承诺等努力表明了美国对抗塑胶污染和保护海洋生态系统的承诺。这些努力在缩小全球消费与永续废弃物管理实践之间的差距方面发挥着至关重要的作用。

北美塑胶废弃物管理产业概述

Plastics Industry's Roadmap Paves the Way for Circular Economies in Durable Goods

The plastics industry's roadmap underscores significant opportunities to reshape the end-of-life phase for durable goods. Given that nearly 60% of domestically produced North American plastics are channeled into durable goods, it is imperative to find solutions that preserve these materials, pivoting toward a circular economy where plastics are recycled into new products rather than discarded.

The American Chemistry Council's (ACC) Plastics Division has unveiled an industry roadmap to guide policymakers, business leaders, and the public toward more sustainable practices. This roadmap outlines policies and strategies to expedite the adoption of circular practices within five key sectors: automotive, building and construction, electronics, infrastructure, and medical.

Some of the key points highlighted in the roadmap include the necessity of designing products and their components for easy disassembly, repair, and recycling, emphasizing the transformation of spent components into new products.

The pivotal role of advanced (chemical) recycling broadens the scope of recyclable plastics, especially those used in durable applications that traditional mechanical recycling struggles with. The significance of establishing standards, methods, and certification programs to ensure durable products align with a circular economy for plastics.

There is a call for more pilot programs, akin to ACC's collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory to assess the technical and economic feasibility of separating, sorting, and recycling durable plastics. ACC is committed to collaborating with policymakers and the durable plastics value chain to realize the circularity goals outlined in the industry roadmap.

As guided by the American Chemistry Council, the plastics industry is pivoting toward a circular economy, especially in the automotive, construction, and electronics sectors. This shift, highlighted in the industry's roadmap, focuses on advanced recycling, designing for disassembly, and setting stringent standards. It is a concerted effort involving policymakers, industry giants, and the ACC to revolutionize how durable plastics are managed. The goal is to ensure a continuous cycle of recycling and repurposing, significantly curbing waste.

United States Leads High-income Nations in Plastic Consumption

High-income countries, including the United States, exhibit a trend of higher per capita plastic consumption compared to their less affluent counterparts. The United States stands out, with the average American using approximately 0.34 kilograms of plastic daily. This figure is nearly triple the usage of Canada and Mexico, each at 0.09 kg/person per day. With an annual consumption of 37.83 million tons, the United States ranks as the world's second-largest plastic consumer, trailing significantly behind China's staggering 60-million-ton consumption. However, being a top consumer does not automatically equate to being a polluter. Wealthier nations, while consuming more plastic per person, also possess the financial resources for more effective disposal methods.

The United States and other affluent nations predominantly dispose of their plastic waste in well-managed landfills or opt for recycling, even with minimal financial returns. Conversely, many lower-income countries with lower plastic consumption rates grapple with unregulated landfills or lack waste management systems, leading to heightened risks of plastic waste entering the oceans.

In 2024, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) allocated nearly USD 70 million for transformative, multi-year initiatives aimed at removing significant marine debris and deploying proven technologies to intercept debris along the US coasts, Great Lakes, territories, and Freely Associated States. Furthermore, NOAA earmarked USD 27 million for 29 Sea Grant projects, focusing on coalition-building and innovative research to combat marine debris over the long term.

Highlighting the disparity in plastic consumption, the United States emerges as the world's second-largest consumer, showcasing a stark contrast between affluent and less affluent nations in waste management capabilities. While the United States demonstrates a commitment to advanced waste management and marine debris removal, initiatives like NOAA's substantial funding of USD 70 million for marine debris projects underscore a dedicated approach to combatting plastic pollution and safeguarding marine ecosystems. These endeavors play a pivotal role in bridging the global gap between consumption and sustainable waste management practices.
