The General Office of the State Council of China issued comprehensive guidelines in February 2024 to accelerate the construction of a waste recycling system, aiming to establish an efficient, standardised waste management and recycling framework by 2030. The policy emerges from China's commitment to resource security, carbon reduction goals, and green development transformation. It addresses the growing challenge of waste management across industrial, agricultural, and urban sectors, establishing specific targets for waste utilisation and recycling industry development.

The framework sets the following targets for 2025, including:

an established waste recycling system covering all fields and links

positive progress in the recycling of major wastes

4 billion tons in annual utilisation of bulk solid wastes such as tailings, fly ash, coal gangue, smelting slag, industrial by-product gypsum, construction waste, and straw

the recycling rate of new bulk solid wastes will reach 60%

450 million tons in annual utilisation of major renewable resources such as scrap steel, scrap copper, scrap aluminum, scrap lead, scrap zinc, waste paper, waste plastic, waste rubber, and waste glass

CNY 5 trillion in annual output value of the resource recycling industry

By 2030, a comprehensive, efficient, standardised and orderly waste recycling system will be built, the value of all kinds of waste resources will be fully explored, the proportion of recycled materials in the supply of raw materials will be further increased, the scale and quality of the resource recycling industry will be significantly improved, and the level of waste recycling will be top in the world.

The policy encompasses several key implementation strategies, focusing on industrial waste management through detailed record-keeping and classified collection, agricultural waste collection systems for livestock manure and crop stalks, and urban waste sorting and recycling networks for household appliances and electronics.

A significant portion of the policy addresses the enhancement of waste resource utilisation, particularly for bulk solid waste and renewable resources. It also emphasises the development of second-hand commodity markets and remanufacturing industries. Special attention is given to specific waste streams, such as power batteries and low-value recyclables, with detailed guidelines for their collection and processing. The framework includes provisions for industrial parks and agricultural sectors to adopt circular economy practices, promoting the integration of various waste management systems.

The policy establishes comprehensive support mechanisms to ensure successful implementation. These include financial incentives through tax benefits and green finance tools, land use guarantees for recycling facilities, and technical innovation support. Additionally, the framework emphasises international cooperation, encouraging participation in global circular economy initiatives and bilateral cooperation mechanisms. Through these measures, the implementation of this system aims to significantly improve China's resource utilisation efficiency and establish a world-leading waste recycling system by 2030. It is expected to contribute to national resource security, environmental protection, and carbon reduction goals while fostering the development of a substantial circular economy industry.

Oil Industry Braces for Years-Long Iran War

Oil producers, traders, and refiners are bracing for a prolonged war between the United States and Iran in the Persian Gulf with little to no hope of a quick resolution. By extension, they are also preparing for higher prices for longer, a theme present at this year’s edition of the Asia Pacific Petroleum Conference. Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported this week that the mood at APPEC was not particularly cheerful as hostilities in the Middle East escalate once again, suggesting achieving peace would be quite a challenge. The Reuters columnist…

Stolen Electricity is Powering Illegal Crypto Farms Across the Globe

Electricity theft is a global problem, and it’s getting more dire all the time. While the problem is most common in developing countries, where grid infrastructure is limited and utilities and state authorities have lower oversight capacities, developed countries are not immune either. This theft can occur in many forms and at many scales, from individuals tapping into power lines to power their individual residences to large-scale and sophisticated theft schemes to power entire cryptocurrency mining farms. Just this week, Mexican authorities…

The Race to Solve Nuclear Energy’s Biggest Problem

Nuclear power is growing in popularity once again as governments worldwide look to diversify their energy mix and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Several countries are now looking to develop or expand their nuclear energy capacity over the coming decades. However, one challenge remains – nuclear waste. Disposing of waste materials from nuclear energy operations remains a complex task with no perfect solution. As countries worldwide have grown their nuclear power capacity, many governments are still struggling to decide on the best solution…

Iran’s Security Crackdown Runs Into Resistance From Within

Iran's parliament is trying to turn fears of foreign infiltration into law. But as lawmakers work through the legislation, the debate is exposing an increasingly awkward question for the Islamic Republic: How far should the state go in policing Iranians' contact with the outside world? At the center of that debate is Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, who, at least publicly, is doing a balancing act. He has defended the need for tougher measures against foreign infiltration while warning that the current draft of the legislation goes too…

Why More Homes Are Switching From Gas to Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to gas-powered central heating systems and are increasingly being used in new construction, often driven by government incentives. A heat pump uses technology similar to that found in a refrigerator or an air conditioner, extracting heat from a source, such as the surrounding air, and amplifying and transferring the heat to where it is needed. As most of the heat is transferred rather than generated, heat pumps are far more efficient than conventional heating technologies such as boilers…
