Chinese Academy Of Engineering Releases Textile Recycling Report

According to the "Development Strategy Research Report on recycling technology of waste chemical fiber and textile resources" released by the Chinese Academy of engineering, it is estimated that the total amount of waste textiles accumulated in China during the "12th Five-Year" period amounted to 1.4 billion tons, but the recycling rate was less than 10%. If China's waste textiles can be recycled all the time, it will save 24 million tons of crude oil per year, reduce the planting area of nearly 1/3, and reduce 80 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions.

From the perspective of the world environment, the contradiction between oil reduction and population expansion will become more and more prominent. Especially in China, a country with large population, the textile industry is facing a huge challenge of shortage of raw materials. Therefore, the recycling of waste textile resources has become extremely important.
