Who will "turn waste into treasure" containers?

Relevant persons believe that making good use of a large number of international waste containers every year and bringing them into the ranks of circular economy and energy conservation and emission reduction promoted by China can not only increase new economic growth points, but also form new characteristic industries. Wen | When Wang entered the door, he was still an old container with an old and deformed appearance. After going out, it became a beautiful, durable and safe urban residence. It is Qingdao Hengfeng Logistics Co., Ltd. located in Qingdao Development Zone that directed this drama of "turning waste into treasure". Recently, nearly 10,000 houses transformed from waste containers were sent from Qingdao to various places, and this company became the first logistics company in Chinese mainland to carry out this business. Qingdao Hengfeng Logistics is a Sino-foreign joint venture modern logistics assembly enterprise located in Qingdao Development Zone, mainly engaged in container maintenance and modification. In recent years, based on technical research and project development, the company has achieved good results in container-related business. The international financial crisis that began last year has affected the company's business to some extent, but the company has keenly captured new development opportunities. Feng Wei, general manager of the company, said: "We plan to invest 700 million yuan in the production and operation of waste container houses within two years." . According to reports, China's 30-year reform and development has made the international shipping industry and railway transport containers in coastal cities enter a stage of high demand growth, and the container manufacturing center has also moved from Japan and South Korea to China. At present, about 95% of the containers in the world are made in China, and about 24 million TEU containers are circulating rapidly around the world, and about 6,543.8+0,000 TEU containers are eliminated every year. The financial crisis that broke out in the second half of 2008 left a large number of containers idle, which not only occupied a lot of dock resources, but also the demand for new containers dropped rapidly. Developed countries have taken the lead in rational utilization of waste containers. Internationally, recycling projects such as transforming abandoned or old containers into houses, temporary places or mobile facilities are very extensive. However, in China, the recycling and development of waste containers are still in the initial stage. How to effectively guide waste containers out of the circulation field is an important topic in front of the industry. Relevant persons believe that making good use of a large number of international waste containers every year and bringing them into the ranks of circular economy and energy conservation and emission reduction promoted by China can not only increase new economic growth points, but also form new characteristic industries. Now or never, Qingdao Hengfeng Logistics is a big deal. In 2009, the company signed a large list of10.5 million TEU waste containers with well-known domestic container manufacturers. According to reports, containers that have been used for more than ten years have gradually withdrawn from the circulation field due to high maintenance costs such as paint peeling and box deformation. The main frame of these waste containers is still good, and the construction of container houses will extend the service life of containers by more than 10 years. The transformation of waste containers takes the house as the basic construction unit of the container, adopts corresponding reinforcement measures through different forms of structural combination, and is equipped with standardized facilities and equipment such as doors and windows, floors, kitchens and bathrooms, water supply and drainage, electricity, lighting, fire fighting, etc., and is decorated accordingly to become a safe, comfortable and humanized living and office place. It is reported that with the acceleration of urbanization in China, prefabricated houses are widely used in various buildings, and the demand is increasing day by day. According to some data, the annual construction area of prefabricated houses is more than 3 million square meters, and the output value is more than 654.38 billion yuan. However, the market is full of all kinds of board house products, which brings great hidden dangers to property and life safety. Compared with prefabricated houses, container houses are not only recyclable, detachable and movable, but also have greatly enhanced earthquake resistance, fire prevention and flame retardancy, and significantly improved safety. In addition, the container has the advantages of fast construction speed, convenient transportation, low requirements for supporting facilities, and can be built on various foundations. Feng Wei said, "For example, in some cities, small villas, sightseeing halls, coffee bars or other temporary buildings transformed from containers can be used in advance when some plots have not been creatively used. It will provide good solutions and auxiliary solutions for public toilets in modern cities, temporary houses on construction sites and over-planned houses in scenic spots. " The recycling of waste containers will also make full use of the original high-carbon steel plate materials, reduce a large number of repeated pollution caused by steelmaking, reduce carbon dioxide emissions, thus slowing down the consumption of resources and the adverse impact on the environment, and effectively improving product value and enterprise benefits. In this regard, Feng Wei calculated an account: recycling a waste container can save 1.7 tons of steel, 0.4 cubic meters of wood and 3.49 tons of carbon dioxide. If we use 6,543,800 waste containers a year, we can reduce 349,000 tons of carbon dioxide and save 340 million kWh. An industry expert believes that the use of waste containers to transform houses has innovative characteristics in environmental protection, energy saving, comfort and circular economy, and its behavior and development model are in line with the trend of new residential buildings in modern cities. It has a strong demonstration and pulling role in innovating the needs of urban construction and development, promoting green residential buildings and building environmental protection and energy saving, and has a very broad development prospect.
