Analysis of the cost of biodegradable plastic bags for non-biodegradable plastic bags
The global demand for bioplastics and biodegradable plastics will rise by 19 per cent a year to 960,000 tonnes in 2017, according to data released by Freedonia, a us market research company.
Biological plastic is biodegradable and compostable plastic, made from renewable materials, such as corn or soybean protein, starch, cellulose can be broken down into harmless substance, such as biomass, carbon dioxide and water.
"The demand for bioplastics in every regional market will increase dramatically," said Kent Furst, an analyst at Freedonia. Lead to this phenomenon is the main reason is that the sustainability of material consumption preference, plastic processors and manufacturers prefer biological plastic mixture, the development of new products will also create new USES for the biological plastic.
Despite the global demand for bioplastics will rise, but Freedonia pointed out at the same time, to 2022, the proportion of biological plastic in the plastic market will still be less than 1%. The Furst predicts: "the success of the biological plastic industry will ultimately depend on the price and performance, before implement price with traditional plastic, large-scale diversion of bioplastics phenomenon will not happen."
Regulation of plastic products in certain regional markets, such as plastic bags, will also stimulate demand for starch - based bioplastics. At the same time, the report notes that demand for bioplastics, such as PE and PP, will grow most rapidly.
In 2012, Western Europe was the largest regional market for bioplastics, with annual demand of 212,000 tonnes, accounting for more than half of global demand.
According to the report, with crops such as corn, wheat and potatoes in the starch as a raw material, can be made from biological plastic can be degraded completely, it is not only open up a new market, the French agriculture also provides agricultural workers with a high tech sales market.
Bioplastics a crop of new products have enriched the French farmers market, people can get more profits in the crops, stimulated the enthusiasm of farmers, while the biological plastic still belongs to the emerging markets in agriculture, but in the past ten years, the yield increased significantly. Compared to a traditional way to oil plastics, biological plastic can be completely biodegradable, as fertilizer for crops growth, at the same time, relative to the use of organic fertilizer production of algae, wood, or plastic, grain has more advantages, its easy to decompose, and easy to collect storage.
It is understood that two thirds of the starch in Europe is produced in France, so it is a good opportunity for French agriculture to make bioplastics from crops.
Since the publication of the complete biodegradable film and other related information of the golden-haired science and technology innovation, it has attracted the attention of many provinces and cities in China.
Guangzhou blonde technology co., LTD., authorities said, after consultation, has signed an agreement with guizhou province bijie city seven cities and weining map, they will each carry out 100 mu of completely biodegradable plastic mulching corn cultivation experiment and demonstration; Shandong Qingdao region will in producing soft container bags.for glue west town 20 mu potato planting by carrying out the experiment of completely biodegradable plastic sheeting, in total, lacey had, jimo, producing soft container bags.for, huangdao district, arrange experiment 10 acres of peanuts. In addition, the shandong, henan and hebei provinces will carry out the experiments on peanut and cotton planting in six cities using biodegradable membrane. The karsh region of xinjiang will also carry out the experiment and demonstration of biodegradable land membrane in whole area.
Biodegradable membrane products are difficult to develop. Different regions, different crops, different soils and different climates have different requirements for biofilm. Therefore, biodegradable film must be combined with multiple provinces and cities to experiment, and each province and province has different environmental conditions, and its production requirements are naturally different.
The Chinese academy of agricultural sciences' institute of cotton is negotiating with blonde technology co., LTD., ready to several provinces in the mainland of completely biodegradable film on cotton cultivation of experimental work, lays the foundation for the future are all made of completely biodegradable plastic films.
Blonde Xia Shiyong said, head of the science and technology, at present to the company know many provinces and cities, completely biodegradable products they are arrange personnel to discuss, comprehensive promotion for completely biodegradable products as much as possible.
In 2013, the state to the regeneration of market, according to the statistics show that environmental rectification of recycled plastic market impact, straighten out the tough market shutdown rate is as high as 80-100%. Among them, known as the waste plastics processing of cixi reset "one hundred days" action under the suppression of the market. The city has shut down the illegal trading market for waste plastic, and banned more than 830 people from illegal waste plastics. 90% of the waste plastics manufacturers basically shut down.
In 2013, after the 2014 Spring Festival, the recycling market was not very optimistic. The decline in upstream raw materials and weak demand in the lower reaches have discouraged the confidence of the recycling industry, and the market enthusiasm has plummeted. Most market starts have been postponed to varying degrees, and the pace of recovery has been slow. At the same time, the environmental protection policies that have affected the market for years are still not negligible in 2014. In the following years, the wind of environmental protection in the waste plastics market all over the country, shandong, hebei, henan, zhejiang, etc., the rectification of the horn has sounded, the rectification of the rhythm continues.
Policy and cost into domestic biodegradable plastic block is affected by national environmental protection and sustainable development policy, has become increasingly urgent environmental protection biodegradable products, environmental protection biodegradable project also encouraged by the government. On November 28, 2013, after nearly a year after trial production, and construction of hainan province completely biodegradable plastic project implementation and put into production, annual production completely biodegradable plastic products of about 1800 tons, the degradation of these products fully achieve one hundred percent, every year thousands of tons of "white trash" can reduce pollution.
The project by hainan red straps on environmental protection products co., LTD and guangdong nine group construction of cooperation, a total investment of about 10 million yuan, construction by stages, the first stage production capacity of 1800 tons, and phase ii is under construction, after the completion of all, the annual production can be fully biodegradable plastic products of about 8000 tons, products are mainly used to replace disposable non-biodegradable plastic shopping bags, garbage bags, agricultural films, cup, bowl, boxes, etc.
