To improve the recycling level of waste plastics is an effective way to solve plastic pollution. In recent years, Chongming has explored the establishment of a recycling system for recyclable domestic waste to promote the utilization and disposal of waste plastics, so as to achieve energy conservation and emission reduction.

Aunt Gong skillfully dropped two bags of garbage at the dropping station of No. 6 Community of Yuhong Jiayuan Residential Quarter, Chenjia Town. "In addition to the separation of the dry and wet garbage, our community also has special recycling bins for plastic bottles, cardboard and glass bottles", Aunt Gong said that residents in the community have already formed the good habit of garbage classification. At the same time, the community guides residents to put plastic garbage separately through publicity to facilitate recycling.

It is learnt that the garbage collector in the community will regularly transport the recyclable garbage such as waste plastics put in by residents to the “two-networks integration” recycling service station in the community. Every week, the recycling truck from the “two-networks integration” transfer station in Chenjia Town goes to the community for plastic waste recycling, and then transports the garbage to the site for disposal and utilization.

"The detergent bottle and shampoo bottle can be turned into plastic fiber board after treatment, and the mineral water bottle can be made into some materials for sportswear. The recycling rate of the recycled garbage can reach more than 99%", said an official of the “two-networks integration” transfer station of Chenjia Town.

At present, Chenjia Town has one town-level transit station characterized by two networks’ integration and 55 village recycling service stations. The "two-networks integration" transit station recycles garbage from each recycling stations.

"This recycling system can promote the recycling of waste plastic resources while improving residents' environmental awareness", an official of the ecological protection and city appearance and environment office of Chenjia Town said that next, they would further refine the garbage classification measures, improve the classification standards and improve the recycling rate.
