Reduce the foam polystyrene packaging waste, there are four main methods:
A) Reduced use - it refers to the reduction in the consumption of natural resources. To this end, avoid the use of disposable products, and improve the packaging design, reduce the use of foam polystyrene materials to reduce environmental costs and environmental load.
B) Waste utilization - Foam polystyrene packagings can be used multiple times, such as containing semi-finished products for internal transport. Another simple way to reuse a foamed polystyrene package is to crush the wrapper as a clay of the regulation, adjust the soil to the water and sparse characteristics.
C) Recycling - reprocessing the used foamed polystyrene packings to produce new materials as alternatives to other materials, such as replacing solid wood, making garden equipment, or replacing slate for paving roofs; or for the production of new plastic products such as hangers and CDs / cassettes.
D) Recycling - Foam polystyrene has a higher calorific value than coal, and can be safely combusted in a thermal recovery system or an incinerator with appropriate pollution control equipment, without releasing toxic or environmentally hazardous substances. So, Styrofoam recycling is greatly helpful.
Whether a product is environmentally friendly is to be considered from each stage of the product process, by the selection of raw materials and production processes, as well as the use of the product and the final disposal. For example, most people think that paper cups are more environmentally friendly than the sparkling glue cups. In fact, the steam and electricity required to make the vials are 12 times and 36 times smaller than the paper cups.
However, styrofoam and other plastic waste, like, is not easy to degrade, and will occupy the landfill space for many years. As with any other disposable or packaged material, the abuse of disposable styrofoam food containers increases the amount of waste disposal and puts pressure on landfills.
