In the United States, about 35 million tons of plastic are thrown away each year. Styrofoam plates, cups and containers accounted for a large proportion.
According to research from a university in Cleveland state, it takes more than a million years for a Styrofoam cup recycling in landfill. A lecturer in environmental engineering at Stanford university said “It’s important to address plastic pollution, because our planet is small and landfill space is limited, but there is too much waste waiting to be disposed of for now.”
Different places has different way to deal with Styrofoam recycling. For example, in Ghana, there is a small town called Agbogbloshie. Young people burn wires and cables to recover copper and aluminum, using Styrofoam and old tires as fuel, which seriously hurt themselves and the environment. Producing pollutants that enter the global ecosystem, build up in fatty tissue and threaten the top of the food chain.Therefore, people should solve this recycling problem in a suitable way by a profession tool with less pollution.
INTCO is the recycling expert by providing Styrofoam compactor APOLO series equipment. The machine can help to compact large size and lightweight Styrofoam. The compacted Styrofoam is easy to handle and convenient to recycle or buy or sell. For example, there was a furniture selling company in the United States choosing it to deal with the disposed furniture. As known, some people might concern about a problem that sellers and buyers cannot contact each other in time because the market for Styrofoam recycling is not yet very mature. Therefore, it is urgent to establish such a platform to realize the direct transaction between buyers and sellers. In order to solve this problem, INTCO plays a role as this platform.
