The Impact

The article presents the results of the research carried out by the foreign ecologists, particularly the study of the system of municipal waste management in the municipality of Maienfeld, Switzerland. The total amount of municipal waste has been calculated. The systems of municipal waste collection, sorting, transportation and recycling have been studied. Besides, four possible scenarios of waste recycling in Maienfeld have been developed. Moreover, the environmental assessment of the waste recycling system by GHG/SLCP emissions has been conducted, and the impact of recycling on the climate has been determined. Finally, taking into account the results of the research, the best scenario of recycling has been proposed.

Plastics Waste

Purpose Plastics waste management is a critical agenda for the global community. Recycling is the most important strategy option for recovering plastics wastes. This study aims to review reverse logistics (RL) implementation practices and conceptualizing it to the plastic recycling system. Design/methodology/approach The paper is organized after evaluating the studies related to plastics waste recycling and analyzing the available frameworks to use RL as a strategic tool. Findings The paper has investigated that previous research on RL implementation focused on a few stages of RL activities and did not include the most important issues. However, for successful RL implementation, taking into account the whole stage and including the most important factors is very important. To elaborate on this finding a new conceptual framework is developed. Research limitations/implications The paper is fully based on literature review and international reports. The developed framework is required for further empirical validation in the plastics sector. Practical implications The paper has considered the important issues and the applications of those factors that can improve plastics recycling performances. Social implications This study can enhance the active involvement of main actors (plastics producers, users, municipal and recyclers) in the plastics recycling system. Originality/value This paper deliberates on how RL can be conceptualized and implemented in plastics recycling systems in considering the most important factors for plastics recycling.

Office Waste

The waste of office is a major source of municipal solid waste. Taking the imperfect and poor-running recycling system into account, we may start with establishing a pilot recycling system in China’s urban areas, in the hope of exploring its organizational and operational mechanisms. A questionnaire-based survey among the office staff is implemented. According to the results, this paper preliminarily proves the feasibility of setting up an efficiency-led office waste recycling system. What’s more, the framework and operational mechanism of a new pilot recycling system is designed.
