china incinerator protest
Why are incinerators controversial?
Regardless of what is being burned (mixed municipal solid waste, plastic, outputs from “chemical recycling”), waste incineration creates and/or releases harmful chemicals and pollutants, including: Air pollutants such as particulate matter, which cause lung and heart diseases.
China is developing state-of-the-art facilities that turn rubbish into power.
The “Municipal Waste to Energy Project” operates on a concession model to establish plants that burn municipal solid waste for the generation of electricity.
How many incinerators are in China?
According to Li, the central government in China had planned on increased waste-to-energy or incinerator output in its 2021-2025 Five-Year Plan.
The three most recent such plans, Li notes, have “prompted a rush to build incineration plants: in 2011, there were 130; today, there are 927.”
What is the anti incinerator movement in China?
The anti-incinerator movement in China refers to the series of environmental protests that have occurred in opposition to China's numerous planned and operating industrial waste incinerators.
