- Abstract
With continuing to increase in construction waste produced from urban and rural construction, how to effectively treat construction waste has become one of the important problems to be resolved in China’s city. This paper is to discuss the present situation and existing problems of construction waste treatment in China, and to make a prospect for the future treatment. The results of the study show that, at the present stage the simple stacking or landfill mainly adopted by most of the cities not only takes up a lot of land, but also causes the environment pollution. However, as most components of construction waste may be recycled, so if some effective policies and measures can be took, its potential environmental benefits and economic benefits may be played. This requires the state and government to improve the relevant laws and regulations, to vigorously promote the relevant management and technical innovation, to develop and perfect the relevant product technical standards, to improve the relevant markets, and to give preferential policies in taxation, funding, technology R&D and market access.
