When it comes to waste recycling, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely the picture of riding a tricycle to collect waste everywhere, but is the waste recycling industry really like this? We visited several large waste collection stations, furnace charge market and second-hand steel market in Shenyang, and learned about the development and present situation of waste recycling industry. I hope this article will give you an understanding of the waste recycling industry.
When it comes to waste recycling, everyone thinks it is a very low-level industry. Indeed, in the waste recycling industry in the early years, the quality of employees was low, the recycled waste was in a mess, and the image of the recycling site was in a mess until now. However, since our country put forward the development of circular economy, environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction, the waste recycling industry has gradually embarked on the right track. The whole recycling industry is gradually standardized, commercialized and mechanized. The metabolism of employees in the recycling industry, with young people gradually joining the industry, has changed people's outdated views on the recycling industry.
We visited many recycling units in Shenyang and found that most recycling units began to use mechanization instead of manual recycling. In a large waste paper recycling station in Shenyang, we learned that there was no machinery before, and many jobs were replaced by hand, and we couldn't handle much waste paper in one day. Needless to say, profits are low, and people are particularly tired after a day's work. However, since 2008, the cost of manual work has been increasing. In order to improve profits, we have to start the transformation, and the unit has continuously purchased some waste paper packaging equipment.
In a furnace charge market in Shenyang, we visited several owners who were engaged in recycling waste steel in Shenyang in 2005. In the early years, recycling was completely manual, and the recycled scrap steel was not roughly classified. Better scrap steel and light materials are sold together, and the selling price is not high, and no more scrap steel can be processed in one day. Later, under the traction of the market department, the owners began to buy some garbage disposal equipment, which was effective for scrap steel. Most of the owners we visited bought forklifts, and some people installed cranes and crawler conveyors on their own sites, which can be said to have realized most mechanized production.
It is understood that since 10, China has continuously paid attention to environmental protection. In Liaoshen area, many smelters whose production, environmental protection and annual output are not up to standard have their production licenses revoked, and all intermediate frequency furnaces have gradually withdrawn from the market. This shows that the state attaches importance to environmental protection, and waste recycling, as an important part of environmental protection, is a hot industry in the current industry. In the future, the industry needs more professional and high-quality employees to join. As an important part of developing circular economy, circular industry has a more stable development path compared with other industries.
So is it okay to join the waste recycling industry now?
As a kind of circular economy, the country is constantly concerned that the waste recycling industry will always exist. New products are constantly produced and waste products are constantly eliminated. It is not too late to engage in the waste recycling industry, but any industry has profits and losses. I hope everyone can do what they can and don't blindly choose industries.
With the rising of labor costs and the popularization of mechanization, the waste recycling industry will be presented to people with a brand-new image.
