Abstract:
Abstract: Owing to the lack of scientific classification management and utilization measures of fruit resource, solid waste generated by the fruit industry is difficult to be effectively utilized, leading to prominent problems such as resource waste and environmental pollution. The implementation of classification management is the premise and basis for preventing the environment pollution and realizing the reduction, recycling and harmless treatment of solid waste. Firstly, the utilization status and outstanding problems of solid waste in fruit processing in China was discussed. Secondly, based on the in-depth analysis of solid waste generation source from raw materials' pretreatment, main processing links, packaging and other links in the process of fruit processing, the classification standards of solid waste in fruit industry was proposed. Solid waste in fruit industry was classified into general solid waste and hazardous waste, in which general solid waste including primary, auxiliary and secondary solid waste, waste packaging materials, etc. Lastly, the measures for the classification management of solid wastes in fruit processing were proposed from four aspects: source reduction, classification collection, pollution prevention and resource utilization. This paper was aimed to provide theoretical support for the management of solid waste in fruit processing. This should be beneficial to the acceleration of waste utilization in fruit industry and the extension of fruit processing industrial chain, and finally be of great significance to the realization of green recycling and low carbon sustainable development of fruit industry.
