To alleviate the shortage of resources is conducive to the development of rubber industry

To maintain the sustainable development of China's rubber industry, the increase in the consumption of resources, it is difficult to avoid. But each year China's imports of rubber accounted for 50% of the total consumption of more than rubber of the degree of dependence on foreign resources and the limited resources of the world's rubber and rubber imports also determines the risk. Therefore, if we do not fundamentally change the traditional mode of development to a large number of rubber consumption of resources and development is unsustainable.

Rubber industry more than 70% of the raw materials derived from oil-based raw materials. It is estimated that each produce a child to be used by consumption of 26 liters of oil, a heavy-duty tires to consume 106 liters of oil. In addition, the waste rubber is also a high value fuel, the heat is generally 31,397 kJ / kg, with considerable coal. It can be said that no matter what form through the use of scrap rubber, the end result is a saving energy and resources. As a result, vigorously develop circular economy, promote efficient use of resources, rubber and recycled rubber industry has become an inevitable choice for the development of science.

First of all, the development of circular economy is fundamentally reduce the waste rubber effective way to pollute the environment. At present, the situation of serious environmental pollution, solid waste pollution have become increasingly prominent. The rubber industry is a source of solid waste, scrap rubber and rubber products belonging to the sulfide, regeneration is difficult, especially in the high-speed steel radial tire development, to the traditional use of renewable plastic great difficulties, rubber waste management Can not be ignored.

Secondly, the rubber is to improve the economic and social benefits enterprises an important measure. Compared with the international advanced level, China's rubber efficiency of resource use has yet to be raising: rubber product mix than backward; structure is not rational use of scrap rubber and look at the low utilization rate of births; powder and unreasonable proportion of reclaimed rubber, rubber powder applied technology behind . The low level of resource utilization has become the enterprises to reduce production costs, enhance economic efficiency and enhance competitiveness barriers, but also become a major social problem. Therefore, we must rely on the development of circular economy, out of a high technological content, good economic returns, low resource consumption, less environmental pollution, and is conducive to China's economic and social harmonious development of a new road to industrialization, with minimal consumption of resources, to achieve the smallest environmental costs of rubber Sustainable industrial growth.
