The annual amount of garbage in Jiangxi Province increases by 7% per year
The province's domestic garbage is treated 32,000 tons per day
"In recent years, the express delivery business in our province has soared, there have been more packaging cartons, and the pressure of 'garbage siege' has also increased. The treatment of domestic waste is imminent. Wang Yuanlin, director of the Urban Management Division of the Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, said that from 2015 to 2020, the annual amount of garbage in the province has increased from more than 6 million tons to nearly 10 million tons; the annual growth rate is about 7%.
The reporter learned that at present, Jiangxi has the conditions for implementing domestic waste management. Up to now, the province has built 30 domestic waste incineration facilities, with a daily treatment capacity of 32,000 tons, and the original domestic waste treatment in the urban areas of 11 districted cities has basically achieved "zero landfill".
"In 2025, we plan to have a daily domestic waste disposal capacity of more than 36,000 tons in the province." Wang Yuanlin said that the construction of domestic waste terminal treatment facilities in Jiangxi Province is at the forefront of the country, and there are 7 incineration plants under construction this year and 2 expansions. For the first time, the amount of garbage produced in Japan will be exceeded.
Explanation:
How much is the domestic waste disposal fee?
"Who pollutes pays" The charging standards in the province have not yet been unified
So, how much should the domestic garbage disposal fee be paid, and how to pay it?
"Domestic waste disposal fee" refers to the fee payable by residents to obtain domestic waste disposal services. According to the Regulations, domestic garbage generators shall pay domestic garbage disposal fees, and the charging methods for domestic garbage disposal fees shall be formulated separately by the people's governments at or above the county level in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state.
"The domestic garbage disposal fee will be levied and paid in accordance with the principle of 'who pollutes and who pays'." Wang Yuanlin said that after the "Regulations" take effect, the province will further improve the garbage disposal fee charging mechanism, in accordance with the principle of "polluters pay", establish and improve the municipal domestic waste treatment charging mechanism; at the same time, it will also be adjusted in a timely manner according to the changes in the operating costs of domestic garbage treatment.
Wang Yuanlin introduced that at present, there is no unified provision for the collection of domestic garbage disposal fees in the province, but the districted cities stipulate themselves according to the actual local conditions, and it is understood that the domestic garbage disposal fees in Nanchang City have been collected and paid together with the water fees, and the fees are about 2 yuan / month (household) standards.
Will waste incineration plants affect the daily lives of residents?
30 domestic waste incineration facilities in the province have been networked with the Ministry of Ecology and Environment
The "Regulations" stipulate that the construction of facilities and places for the classified delivery, collection, transportation and treatment of domestic garbage shall adopt pollution prevention and control measures such as sealing, odorproof, anti-seepage, dustproof, noiseproof, anti-scattering, and treatment of leachate and fly ash in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state and the province. Where existing domestic garbage facilities and sites do not meet the requirements of the regulations, they shall be transformed.
However, some citizens are always worried: will the nearby waste incineration plant affect the daily life of residents?
"The construction of all domestic garbage facilities and sites in Jiangxi Province has all 'reached the standard'. In particular, the emissions of waste incineration plants have been networked with the environmental protection department, and the monitoring data will be transmitted to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment in real time. Wang Yuanlin introduced that all 30 domestic waste incineration facilities in the province have been installed and used automatic monitoring equipment, and are networked with the Ministry of Ecology and Environment; conventional pollutant emission data has been "instantly disclosed" and "real-time monitoring" - once there are pollutant emissions "exceeding the standard", it will be immediately ordered to rectify and require incineration plants to take timely measures to reduce pollutant emissions.
How to reduce the waste of resources and environmental pollution of express packaging?
Advocate the recycling of express packaging to reduce packaging pollution
The Regulations also require that the departments of commerce, market supervision and management of people's governments at or above the county level and postal administration departments should guide consumers to use green packaging and reduce the amount of packaging. Producers, sellers and service providers should package appropriately and promote recyclable, degradable packaging.
"With the development of e-commerce, express parcels and takeaway packaging have grown rapidly, which is prone to waste of resources and environmental pollution. We hope to accelerate the recycling of all types of waste by advocating 'green packaging'. Wang Yuanlin explained that the reason why the Regulations make specific requirements for "green packaging" is to clarify the responsibilities of the department and promote the "green packaging, reduced packaging, and recycling" of enterprises and individuals to promote the classification and disposal of domestic garbage and promote the green transformation of the industry.
He introduced that consumers can usually pay attention to whether there is a "degradable plastic" logo on the packaging when disassembling the express package, and strive to recycle the express packaging to minimize the pollution of the express packaging.
Who should I look for for the recycling of large pieces of garbage such as waste furniture?
Large garbage dismantling center can make it "rounded into zero" and "make the best use of things"
Large pieces of garbage such as discarded furniture often become a problem in the lives of the majority of residents due to their large volume, high transportation costs, and inconvenient transportation and treatment.
For the problem of "difficult to deal with" large garbage, the Regulations stipulate that large garbage should be put into designated places or can be called by renewable resource recycling operators for recycling, and the use of resources or harmless treatment shall be implemented. The domestic garbage management departments of the people's governments of districted cities and counties (cities and districts) shall publish the list of large-scale garbage collection and transportation units and contact information.
"The provincial '14th Five-Year Plan' proposes to accelerate the construction of a waste material recycling system in all localities, including the construction of a number of large-scale garbage dismantling centers." Wang Yuanlin introduced that the large-scale garbage dismantling center can solve the problem of difficult treatment of large-scale garbage for residents, and promote the resource utilization of low-value recyclables in domestic garbage.
It is reported that as early as the end of 2019, Nanchang City has built the province's first large-scale garbage crushing center, and the daily treatment of large-scale garbage can reach 20 tons. Its crushing and screening of combustibles, steel, and unusable substances will be used for incineration for power generation, recycling, and harmless treatment, so that large garbage will be "reduced to zero" and "full use".
Who is in charge of violating the Ordinance?
Urban management administrative law enforcement departments perform their duties on the classification and distribution of domestic garbage
The "Regulations" make it clear that units and individuals who fail to put domestic garbage into the corresponding containers in accordance with the requirements will be ordered by the domestic garbage management department to make corrections depending on the seriousness of the circumstances; if the circumstances are serious, they will be fined between 50,000 yuan and 500,000 yuan for the unit, and between 100 and 500 yuan for individuals. Where the person responsible for the management of the classification and management of domestic garbage fails to perform his or her duties, the domestic garbage management department of the people's government of the districted city or county (city, district) shall order corrections; if the correction is not made within the time limit, a fine of not less than 500 yuan but not more than 5,000 yuan shall be imposed.
"The management of domestic garbage classification will be authorized by the local people's governments to carry out administrative law enforcement by the relevant urban management administrative law enforcement departments." Regarding the issue of "who will manage" the classification of domestic garbage, Wang Yuanlin explained that it will be handed over to the administrative law enforcement departments of urban management at all levels for management according to law to promote the performance of responsibilities of those responsible for the classification and delivery of domestic garbage.
