- W44338033 abstract "The Association of Plastics Manufacturers in Europe (APME; Brussels) has published ecological impact (eco-balance) data for a number of commodity polymers-the latest stage of its program to assess the environmental impact of plastics products. Two main aims of the project are to address public concern about packaging waste and provide data to allow legislators to make better decisions, says Vince Matthews, coordinator of the project. About 40% of Europe's plastics output is used in packaging. Already Europe's proposed packaging waste directive calls for 60% of recovered waste to be recycled by mechanical or feedstock routes. The control states 90% of the packaging waste stream is to be recovered. The targets are to be achieved ten years after the directive is adopted, which is expected to be in 1994. The APME claims this level of mechanical recycling may not be the best environmental option. It says mechanically recycling thin film, for example, would use more energy and produce more water pollution than incineration with energy recovery. Matthews concedes it is probably too late to influence targets in the current proposals, but he says future reviews of the packaging waste directive may yield changes." @default.
