Bridging the U.S.-China gap to strengthen recycling

摘要

Although the recycling relationship between the U.S. and China has been hampered by scrap material restrictions, an expert says stakeholders in both countries can now take steps to help each other. Chinese companies have the capability to process material at relatively low cost, said Chris Cui, director of China Programs for Closed Loop Partners, an investment firm providing capital to recycling-related enterprises. The U.S., on the other hand, is far more advanced in collection and transportation of recyclables.
