Paper Recycling in Europe

By -
Europe is now the global leader in paper recycling. The continent’s paper recycling rate has doubled over the last 15 years, and has now reached 71.5%, primarily due to significant investment by European paper industries themselves.

Now environmental awareness has increased, since the latter half of the 20th century, the value of recycling paper has also increased. Businesses around the globe have recognized that recycling is both ecologically and economically sound. Recovered paper is now seen as a vital raw material for paper production.
Energy Use
Already, 55% of the energy used by the European paper industry is “bio-energy.” Bioenergy is energy derived from biological material (in this case, wood and wood pulp). In essence, it is the utilization of solar energy that has been bound up in this biological material during the process of photosynthesis. It is a renewable energy source.

The European paper industry uses residues and waste materials from the pulping process to provide energy for the manufacturing process itself. Any excess heat and power that is produced is then sold to the grid or used by the local community.

What’s Next for Europe?
How to recycle new energy from recycled paper？Stay tuned.

It is worth mentioning that the pallets are made by recycled paper.

Prospect analysis of waste wood recycling and utilization

Waste wood is a common material in China. In recent years, with the accelerated development of China's cities, the real estate and home improvement industry has flourished, and a large number of renovation surpluses have appeared. According to estimates by experts, the city's cities produce about 90 million tons of waste wood every year, including old furniture, waste wood from old houses, disposable wood products, construction waste wood, old dead wood and other urban waste wood. Therefore, the recycling of waste wood is imperative. According to statistics, at present, the comprehensive utilization rate of wood in China is only 65%, while that in developed countries is generally above 80%. If it can increase by one percentage point, China will save 750,000 cubic meters of wood every year. However, the phenomenon of wood waste in our country is quite amazing. Not only is the utilization rate of wood low, but also the recycling and recycling rate is low. Although some wast

More than 90% of wooden pallets are recycled

A recent survey conducted by researchers at Virginia Tech University, in collaboration with the National Wood Pallet and Container Association, and the US Forestry Service, has discovered that approximately 95% of all wooden pallets avoid entering landfills, and are instead either resold, repaired for ongoing usage, or pulverized into useful mulch. This same type of study was conducted in 1998, and the comparison of numbers between the two studies is startling. Factors such as an increased awareness of environmental concerns, overcrowded landfills and disposal areas, and an increasing desire to manage waste more efficiently has apparently led to the dramatic results. The number of wood pallets which are now entering landfills has dropped by an astonishing 86% in the 20 years since the same survey was last conducted. Increased recycling Recycling takes place both at companies which make use of them for storage and packaging, as well as at landfills and disposal areas where many
