城市垃圾处理的现状和对策

The Status-quo and Countermeasures of Urban Refuse Disposal

环保部发布的《2014年全国大、中城市固体废物污染环境防治年报》显示:我国大、中城市生活垃圾产生总量为16148.81万吨,处置量为15730.65万吨,处置率为97.41%。虽然大部分的垃圾得到及时处理,但是由于垃圾每天源源不断地产生,现有处理方式的不足以及政策的缺失,不适当的解决垃圾处理问题将严重影响地下水质量和大气安全,威胁人类健康,因此,城市垃圾处理问题受到越来越多的关注。

It is revealed in an annual report released by the Ministry of Environmental Protection in 2014 that, large-and-medium size Chinese cities produce 1,614 million tons of household refuse, the amount of refuse disposal is 1,573 million tons, with a handling rate of 97.41%. Although most refuse receive immediate disposal, inappropriate disposal methods and absence of policy still result in serious problems affecting water quality, air safety and even human health. The issue of urban refuse disposal is of great public concerns.
