(voice-over): The process of harmless treatment of kitchen waste, each link sounds exciting. First of all, kitchen waste for grease separation, can produce biodiesel, for transportation as fuel; next fermentation, can produce biogas, power generation and provide clean fuel for transportation, and finally, the rest of the residue treatment can be made into organic fertilizer, this fertilizer does not contain chemicals and heavy metals. The premise of all this is that kitchen waste can be collected, in fact, Nanchang Maiyuan kitchen waste treatment plant started many days, the situation is not optimistic.
Picture 1: 16:00 on September 23, Maiyuan garbage treatment plant, nearly 10 staff members are collected and transported back to the kitchen waste anaerobic digestion and biogas purification, but only 2 tons of garbage recovered that day.
Sin Navy: Nanchang kitchen waste treatment plant investment of more than 80 million yuan, waste treatment capacity and process level of the country's top, every day to deal with 200 tons of kitchen waste. If running at full capacity, 4.8 tons of biodiesel can be refined daily. But the first day of operation only received 5 tons of garbage, these days remain at about 2 tons a day, we are currently signing a "food waste centralized collection and transportation services contract" with catering enterprises, I believe that the number of garbage received after that will increase.
Wu Jun: from a national perspective, within a year of food waste collection to reach the target of about 60% of only two or three cities, we hope that Nanchang City will be able to reach more than 60% within a year, that is to say, before the Spring Festival next year to be able to do 100 tons / day, a year later to strive to reach 150 tons / day, within a year and a half to reach 200 tons. I have confidence in this.
Centralized collection and transportation contract signing rate is low: "free sewage" vs "sell for profit"
(voice-over): As we all know, catering companies sell kitchen waste to the "guerrilla team ", can have hundreds to thousands of dollars per month, and centralized collection and transportation is free of charge on the premise of catering enterprises, in this case, enterprises are willing to turn over the kitchen waste that could have made money?
Picture 2: At 14:30 on September 22, 2014, in the conference room of Nanchang City Bahuazhou Street Office, more than 30 catering enterprises came to participate in the "centralized collection and transportation of food waste in Nanchang City, the service contract" signing ceremony as promised. Zeng Jiyong, deputy director of Donghu District Urban Management Bureau, introduced the hazards of gutter oil and hoped that catering enterprises would sign the centralized collection and transportation contract.
Then, catering business owners spoke out. Nanchang City, "bubble powder kitchen" restaurant Wang You said, before the sale of kitchen waste every month has 500 yuan of income, and now unified recycling, not only no income, but also have to pay 200 yuan, as a recycling bucket deposit, so it is difficult to accept. "I know the danger of gutter oil, and understand that the government and environmental protection companies do this for the sake of the public's health, but there is no reasonable explanation on the matter of charges, to sign up or not, I may have to consider."
When the words fell, other restaurant business owners immediately picked up the conversation. "Yes, in the past, the recycling bin does not cost money, and we hope that when they come to the door, when they come, now this environmental protection enterprise can provide such a thoughtful service," "Now the recycling of the unit is a business, the enterprise is to make a profit. We all know that kitchen waste recycling can be reused, power generation, refining biodiesel, let us turn over the garbage for free, turn around and you take to make money, it is not good enough", "the government is not to consider giving a little subsidy it" ... ...
Soon, catering business owners left the venue one after another, and only one of the more than 30 companies signed a contract for kitchen waste collection and transportation on the spot.
Host: Is this situation unexpected?
Zeng Jiyong: expected, the 22nd morning situation is similar, Bayiqiao Street Office signed only 1, Dunzitang Street Office signed only 5, most people have raised similar questions. In fact, we have this signing will not expect to have to catering business owners can immediately sign the contract, we also want to listen to their views, and then our approach to improve up.
Zhang Zhichao: the company and the catering business contract from mid to late August to start, up to now, **** signed more than 100, mainly centralized feeding of large and medium-sized enterprises and institutions, the conscious awareness of these enterprises is higher, but small and medium-sized catering business contract is not very optimistic. The next step, we will go door to door to mobilize, so that they have a deep understanding of the dangers of gutter oil.
Multiparty linkage: Nanchang will be joint law enforcement to crack the "recycling difficult"
(voice-over): the resourceful use of food waste and harmless treatment, the first thing to be resolved is the environmental protection enterprises kitchen waste "recycling difficult" problem. Only recycling enterprises "have rice in the pot", to talk about the normal operation of the enterprise and basic profitability, to talk about the pilot city kitchen waste treatment mechanism and sustainable, but also to talk about the pilot's promotional value. In short, the only solution to the "recycling difficulties", the resource utilization of kitchen waste and harmless treatment can be put into practice.
Host: What will the government do next to address the problem of companies refusing to sign up for the program and the difficulty of collecting waste?
Wu Jun: We will promote the treatment of kitchen waste through active enforcement. First of all, we have been in the formation of a comprehensive remediation team consisting of urban management, food and drug, environmental protection, public security, traffic control and other departments, mainly on the illegal collection and transportation, processing of kitchen garbage to crack down on the personnel; second is to do a good job of service. Street urban management integrated law enforcement team of 40 to 60 people, they will go door to door to publicize, and establish the process of door-to-door collection and transportation services. Through the collection and transportation fleet GPS vehicle recorder records the amount of garbage collected at each point, in Nanchang to form a kitchen waste harmless treatment and collection and transportation of refined network, each food and beverage units in the point and line will have a record, as a way to build Nanchang kitchen waste collection and transportation and harmless treatment of the complete system, to ensure that the kitchen waste harmless treatment work to enter the forefront of the country.
Our centralized rectification will continue until the end of the year, but the illegal crackdown on kitchen waste is open-ended, as long as there is a violation of the "Measures for the Management of Kitchen Waste in Nanchang City," the units and individuals, we will be based on the daily record, based on the law for serious treatment. Measures" stipulates that the collection, transportation, disposal of kitchen waste within the urban planning area to implement the franchise system, without the franchise enterprises and individuals shall not collect, transport, disposal of kitchen waste, violators by the urban management and law enforcement departments ordered to make corrections within a specified period of time and impose a fine of 3,000 yuan or more than 30,000 yuan.
Host: Will the government consider giving some subsidies to the restaurant owners mentioned?
Wu Jun: In accordance with the Regulations issued, there is a basis for our enforcement. Trafficking in kitchen waste is in itself an illegal act that must be resolutely prohibited.
Combination of blocking: respect public opinion to reduce the cost of law enforcement
(voice-over): Despite the introduction of the Measures, but the reality is that most of the kitchen garbage can not be collected, many catering companies refused to sign up for the kitchen garbage treatment plant, "can not eat", the situation, relying solely on the increase in the law enforcement, increase the penalty amount can be resolved? Increase the amount of penalties can be resolved? Nanchang has more than 6,000 catering enterprises, driven by the interests of the cat and mouse situation can be avoided?
Liu Xiqiu: From the current situation, there are a number of issues of concern. First of all, the "Measures" with regulations and local legislation to regulate the treatment of kitchen waste is with a certain degree of mandatory, but they also require catering enterprises and environmental protection companies to sign a contract, because the two sides of the contract is equal, signed or not is a voluntary act, so this is in itself contradictory.
Secondly, the private sector has the habit of paying for the collection of kitchen waste, which has been going on for many years, and all of a sudden the centralized collection and transportation of unpaid food is not acceptable to many people. If it is mandatory, it will increase the cost of enforcement and not achieve good results.
We also found that the license period for regulations made by the government is only one year, and if the license continues to be valid after one year, it must be transformed into a local regulation, or vice versa, the license is problematic, and regulations cannot be used as a substitute for law.
Xu Xiaohuan: food waste recycling is a trend, but I think in the initial stage of immediate implementation of the lack of consideration. Because the chain of interests has been formed for many years, a comprehensive cut off at once is very difficult, it is recommended to take a combination of blocking the way. On the one hand, increase law enforcement, improve the implementation of the Measures to improve the operability of the implementation of the rules, to play a combination of punches; on the other hand, the establishment of a high-quality recycling team, the establishment of a scientific regulatory system. There should also be a compensation mechanism or incentive mechanism, as a buffer period of transition, and slowly increase the self-awareness of restaurant owners to reduce resistance.
Wu Zonglong: centralized collection and transportation of food waste is a basic project related to people's livelihood. Government regulators to strictly enforce the law, increase the crackdown is certainly an important external security, but the franchisee should be from the training of full-time staff and team building several aspects of the service to place. For kitchen waste producers, only the community, amenities, urban management and other departments to do their work, in order to truly environmental awareness into the restaurant owners of conscious action, *** with the promotion of kitchen waste recycling work smoothly.
Host: In China, Taiwan, as well as a number of foreign cities, there are more successful experience in the treatment of kitchen waste. First of all, we must improve the purity of kitchen waste, in order to achieve a greater degree of reuse; secondly, a reasonable configuration of kitchen waste setup, advanced technology, applicable, efficient and environmentally friendly, you can improve the transportation rate, reduce secondary pollution; the most important thing is to control the production of kitchen waste, the implementation of the principle of who pollutes who pays. The key is to implement the rule of whoever pollutes pays, which is diametrically opposed to the practice of paid waste recovery that is now popular among our private sector. In fact, Taiwan to do this similarly experienced a long transition time before it was accepted by everyone, and ultimately achieved the enhancement of environmental protection concepts of the whole population.
