  • A Triangular Symbol Made of Three "Chasing Arrows"
    A triangular symbol made of three "chasing arrows" containing a number in the middle and special letters on the outside is used to identify the different types of plastic. The following are the letters of identification and their meaning: 1. PETE - Polyethylene Terephthalate - PETE is most often used for cooking oil bottles, soft drink bottles, and peanut butter jars. 2. HDPE - High Density Polyethylene - HDPE is commonly used for milk jugs and detergent bottles. 3. PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride - PVC is used for plastic pipes, water bottles, outdoor furniture, shrink-wrap, liquid detergent containers, and salad dressing containers. 4. LDPE - Low Density Polyethylene - LDPE is often used for trash can liners, dry- cleaning bags, produce bags, and food storage containers. 5. PP - Polypropylene - PP is used for drinking straws and bottle caps. 6. PS - Polystyrene - PS is used to make packaging pellets, commonly referred to as "Styrofoam peanuts." 7. OTHER - Plastics listed in the OTHER category are any not listed in the first six categories. Certain types of Tupperware and other food storage containers commonly fit within the OTHER category. The many different types of plastic has made recycling plastic difficult, particularly because the process of sorting plastics cannot be automated. In fact, recycling plastic is labor intensive since reading the special triangular symbol can only truly identify most plastic items. Biodegradable Plastic Currently, there is research taking place in the area of biodegradable plastic. The goal is to develop a type of plastic that can naturally break down from exposure to sunlight. By mixing starch with the plastic, it can be made to degrade more easily.

  • Chapter Ii-6 Technical System for Solid Waste Management
    Final Report ChapterII-6 CHAPTER II-6 TECHNICAL SYSTEM FOR SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT 6.1 Source Reduction In accordance with the waste hierarchy, a series of source reduction programs was proposed on Boracay Island and the Mainland of Malay. For the reduction of biodegradable waste, which accounts for about 30-40 % of the generated waste, at the source, promotion of home composting was proposed for households and business establishments. As for the reduction of non-biodegradable waste, promotion of returning of bottles to the dealers and a reduction in the number of plastic shopping bags used were proposed. In addition, on Boracay Island, use of specific packages was proposed to be prohibited, while on the Mainland of Malay, a group recycling program was proposed for promoting the recycling activities of junkshops. The proposed source reduction programs are summarized in Table 6.1-1. Table 6.1-1 Description of Source Reduction Programs Target Program Component Description 1 Reduction of "BALIK Promotion of Small scale composting is promoted to households biodegradable BIO-WASTE" home and small scale business establishments. waste Program composting Reduction of "BALIK Promotion of The producers are requested to return container and non- BOTE" returning of packaging wastes to recycling industries.

  • Regulations on the Use of Plastic Bags in the Philippines and in Other Countries*
    NTRC Tax Research Journal Vol. XXXI.5 September-October 2019 Regulations on the Use of Plastic Bags in the Philippines and in Other Countries* I. INTRODUCTION The improper disposal of used plastic bags has been known to cause long-term damage to the ecosystem and the natural environment. Plastic waste takes a long time to degrade in soil and contributes to air, water, and soil pollution. Plastic bags that end up in landfills bring significant environmental burden that relates to resource use (EPA, 2016). There is a significant body of scientific evidence on the environmental impacts of plastics, including plastic bags, on the marine environment. Single-use plastic bags, also referred to as disposable plastic bags, are highly visible and mobile in the environment, entangling and choking marine life that approach or ingest them. In economic terms, single-use plastic bags in the environment represent a negative externality because their manufacturers and users do not pay for the societal and environmental costs of utilizing them. To reduce its costly environmental impact, several countries have already imposed taxes on plastic bags, while others have even gone so far as to implement a total ban. In this connection, this paper aims to provide a brief background information on plastics and plastic bags, the emerging trends in the regulation thereof in different countries, the existing plastic bag regulations implemented in selected local government units (LGUs) in the country, and the emerging proposal on the excise tax on plastic bags. II. BACKGROUND INFORMATION A. Definition of plastics and plastic bags Plastic is a lightweight, hygienic and resistant material which can be molded in a variety of ways and utilized in a wide range of applications.
