In this study,the LCA method was used to evaluate the environmental impact of Baosteel’s newly developed process for manufacturing film-laminated steel packaging materials,from raw material mining,production,and processing to their storage,consumption,recycling,and final disposal. The environmental performance and main influencing factors were analyzed and compared. In addition,the life cycle environmental characteristics of film-laminated steel cans,tin-plated steel cans,and aluminum cans were compared. Of the main environmental indicators of the life cycle of the film-laminated steel can,the environmental load of the substrate accounts for the largest proportion,follow ed by electricity. The environmental impact of the production of film materials cannot be ignored. The overall environmental performance of film-laminated steel cans is better than that of aluminum cans.展开更多

The idea of harmonious coexistence between man and nature has gained significant prominence. General Secretary Xi Jinping places great importance on ecological and environmental protection, offering clear directives for ecological preservation efforts within the delivery industry [1]. He emphasizes the necessity to address packaging waste in online shopping and express delivery, eliminate excessive packaging, and reduce environmental waste and pollution. In this process, China Post will actively respond to the central government’s imperatives and formulate a series of strategies and plans, including green post ideas, transportation, packaging, and finance.展开更多
