Ukungcoliswa Kwepulasitiki: Inselele Yanamuhla Enzima Kakhulu Yezemvelo

Ipulasitiki, into yokwenziwa elula nesezingeni eliphezulu, isibaluleke kakhulu embonini yesimanje kanye nempilo yansuku zonke kusukela yasungulwa maphakathi nekhulu lama-20 ngenxa yezinto zayo ezingabizi kakhulu, ezingasindi, nezihlala isikhathi eside. Kodwa-ke, ngokukhiqizwa ngobuningi kanye nokusetshenziswa kabanzi kwemikhiqizo yepulasitiki, ukungcoliswa kwepulasitiki kuye kwaba kubi kakhulu, kuba enye yezinkinga eziphuthumayo zemvelo ezibhekene nesintu.

Ngokwe-United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), abantu bakhiqiza amathani epulasitiki angaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-400 minyaka yonke, futhi iningi lawo liphenduka udoti ngokushesha. Inani elikhulu, ukusatshalaliswa okubanzi, kanye nomthelela omkhulu wokupakishwa kwepulasitiki kuphakamise ukukhathazeka kuzo zonke izinhlangothi. Kusukela ngo-1950 kuya ku-2017, ukukhiqizwa kwemikhiqizo yepulasitiki emhlabeni wonke kwafinyelela cishe amathani ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-9.2, kodwa izinga lokululama nokusetshenziswa lingaphansi kwe-10%, cishe amathani ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-70 epulasitiki agcina engcolile. Le mfucumfucu yepulasitiki inzima kakhulu ukucekela phansi ngokwemvelo, ibeka usongo olukhulu endaweni yemvelo nempilo yabantu.

Ukulimala kokungcoliswa kwepulasitiki kudlulela ngalé kokucatshangwa. Nsuku zonke, amaloli angaba ngu-2000 agcwele imfucumfucu yepulasitiki aphonswa emifuleni, emachibini nasezilwandle, okubangela amathani acishe abe yizigidi ezingu-1.9 kuya kwezingu-2.3 emfucumfucu yepulasitiki ukuze angcolise imvelo. Ukwengeza, ukukhiqizwa kwepulasitiki kubala ngaphezu kuka-3% wokukhishwa kwegesi ebamba ukushisa emhlabeni, okwenza kube nzima ukushintsha kwesimo sezulu.

Ukubhekana nokungcoliswa kwepulasitiki, ukunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwepulasitiki okuvela emthonjeni kubalulekile. Ezingeni likahulumeni, inani elandayo lamazwe nezifunda lisebenzisa izinqubomgomo “zokuvinjelwa nokuvinjelwa kwepulasitiki,” okukhawulela ukusetshenziswa kwemikhiqizo yepulasitiki esetshenziswa kanye. Ezingeni lebhizinisi, kuyadingeka ukufuna ngenkuthalo ezinye izinto ezisetshenziswayo ezonakaliswayo nezinobungani kwemvelo ngenkathi kuthuthukiswa izinqubo zokukhiqiza ukuze kuthuthukiswe izinga lokubuyisela kanye nokusetshenziswa kwepulasitiki.

I-ZAOGE i-plastic granulatoryisibonelo esihle. Ingakwazi ukufeza ukukhiqizwa kwe-granulation yesikhathi sangempela ku-inthanethi, ixhumeke ngqo kumishini ekhona, futhi ngokushesha iphinde isebenzise futhi isebenzise imfucumfucu yepulasitiki ekhiqizwa ngesikhathi sokukhiqiza, inciphise kakhulu ukukhishwa kwegesi futhi ithuthukise ukululama nokusebenzisa kahle. Ngokusebenzisa i-ZAOGEi-plastic crusher, amabhizinisi angonga izindleko zezinto ezibonakalayo futhi athuthukise isithombe sawo somthwalo wemvelo, athole inzuzo yokuncintisana emakethe.

Inkinga yokungcoliswa kwepulasitiki idinga isinyathelo esihlanganyelwe emphakathini. Ngokusebenzisana kuphela, ohulumeni, amabhizinisi nomphakathi bangathatha izinyathelo eziphumelelayo zokunqanda ukungcoliswa kwepulasitiki nokubuyisela imvelo enhle yemvelo yomhlaba ngamagagasi acwebile namafu aphakeme.”
