Time：ã€2015-3-10】 Allã€ã€‘次 ã€Print】 ã€Back】
(A) the basic principles and framework of the development of printing environmental standards in China.Green printing is a new thing in China. Our main aim is to learn from the experiences and practices of developed countries, combined with China's reality, the formulation of standards in line with our national conditions, monitoring methods, and the associated measures.
The basic principles are: to adhere to the scientific concept of development, to protect the interests of consumers, the tenet of people-centered, drawing on the absorption of foreign standards at the same time, pay attention to China's actual situation; gradual improvement of the environmental standards of the various types of print and steadily push forward the flag products the scope of application, in order to promote structural adjustment and technological upgrading of the printing industry in a relatively short period of time to reach and close to the level of developed countries.
Standard framework as a starting point and goal: the environmental standards of the printing products. To formulate print environmental standards, including the heavy-metal contents of the printed materials, materials, accessories, processing requirements, as well as prepress, India, India, material handling, waste water (including a variety of chemical solution, washing water), waste (Cleaning cloth, PS), exhaust emissions, finished recycling and so on. Provisions of the qualification of the inspection bodies and testing methods.
Formulation and implementation of standards under the guidance of the government, which means that the government has introduced standards and the specific implementation approach. Environmental Protection Ministry of Press and Publication Administration jointly contracted to implement the Green Printed strategic cooperation agreement, led by the China Printing Technology Association, has established a special "green printing of the printing industry Promotion Office (referred to as the" Green Office "), responsible for research, standard drafting , publicity and promotion work, and actively participate in the Ministry of Environmental Protection to develop and promote green printing standards.
(B) printing for environmental labeling products standard-setting procedures and processes.
-7 Convened in the month of June 2009 the standard boot, the establishment of the standard preparation group to determine the standard-setting direction, the scope of reference.
July 2009 to March 2010, the preparation of the group organized experts in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Jinan, a field investigation, and ultimately the formation of the draft standard.
In February 2010, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Press and Publication Administration of green printing and printing environmental labeling standards in Beijing for talks, and discussed the implementation of the standard meaning and its impact on society.
Held in March 2010, the preparation of group and expert group meetings, approved in principle the draft standards, and suggest amendments.
12 to 14 May 2010, the Ministry of Environmental Protection Environmental Certification Center of China and India Association, industry experts and Heshan ACTO Shi, China Business (Hong Kong), Jun thinking Group, Ai faction Group, Tianjin, Japan, Fuji Star, Jindong Paper, Wende Xiang River, Heidelberg [product news space], Shanghai Meiji, in the note-issuing credit cards, Shanghai smoke and India, Changde Jinpeng, Shanghai Zi Jiang color, Zhejiang New Oriental of Dong Jiang Su Caihua, Wuhan Hongjinlong Shenzhen Jin Jia Wan the Xingyu in banknote special security, Higashida transfer, to Xinjin care exhibition Yue Tong, Zhuhai City, Zhongshan Songde, Yuncheng Engraving, Shaanxi North, Guangzhou Tong Chak, UPM, East Port Security Printing , Xi'an, on the Hay Noel, Shanghai Sun mechanical, Beijing printed Zhou Jin, Guanhao, Guangdong, Sichuan, the new fiscal Zhejiang Matsuoka, Yichang Dachang Fujian Hong Bo, 34 senate Enterprises Association knitting enterprises technical experts The standard line by line by verbatim modified to confirm that the proposed exposure draft standard submitted to the Ministry of Environmental Protection.
June to August after a full investigation and repeated changes exposure draft was widely to the community in September 2010 by the Ministry of Environmental Protection for comment in mid-September, late related senate enterprise, technology demonstrator, expected by the end of the Ministry of Environmental Protection promulgated and implemented.
(C) The standard is aimed to solve the problem.
A solvent pollution problems.
Solvent-based ink machines need to add a large number of solvents, solvent recovery of the domestic printing enterprises are generally not considered in the printing, resulting in a larger volatile organic compounds pollution;
Ink's environmental problems. Environmental problems of the ink began to slowly pay attention due to the lack of effective domestic environmental regulations, so choose to use ink products without discrimination in accordance with, resulting in printed harmful residues;
(3) the choice of printing materials. Printed material provided by the Party apart from a small, since with most of the material by the printing companies. The choice of printing materials basic is the price is mainly determined based on the consideration of environmental issues, resulting in environmental hazards of the print.
Therefore, the development of environmental labeling standards in the printing industry is very necessary. Authentication methods and procedures to improve the green printing companies and printing products, and improve the functions of certification bodies, and gradually expand the size of the business of green printing and green the proportion of the printing process. Policies to encourage the printing companies to develop low-carbon economy, to strengthen the environmental protection measures, policies and measures for green printing. Organize "green printing system project" green projects to stimulate the development of green, environmentally friendly, low carbon industry. School textbooks, government procurement, product and food and drug packaging [Baike], actively coordinate environmental protection, education and other relevant administrative departments to carry out multi-level multi-faceted cooperation, and vigorously promote the development of our green printing. Promote the packaging and decoration printing to reduce, reuse, recycling and biodegradable (3R +1 D) direction. Actively promote green flexo printing applications, and to promote the development of low-power processing, waste treatment equipment and water-based inks, water-based paint green printing equipment and materials, to provide support for sustainable development. Continue to improve the printing lots of backward production capacity out of the exit mechanism to clear out the standard to quantify the phase-out target and increase efforts to eliminate, as soon as possible to eliminate a number of serious pollution, backward technology and equipment, low productivity, resources and energy consumption high capacity.
The significance of standards development and implementation of
After the enactment of the three criteria, the printing industry in China will be a significant impact and can greatly help to promote the goal of China's printing industry to achieve energy conservation and development of low-carbon economy, to improve and enhance the level of environmental protection of China's printing industry .
Many printing companies follow the traditional printing process, the printing industry in some production processes, there are still some solvent evaporation, such as toxic and harmful to the human body and cause air pollution, destruction of the environmental problems caused by the water quality and wastewater discharge of contaminated soil. Through the promotion of environmental labeling standards can play a larger role in the following areas:
Reduce the use of high-polluting inks.
Reduced fountain solution containing isopropyl alcohol class.
The fountain solution is a necessary condition to ensure the blank part of the plates to form the hydrophilic layer of salt on the offset press, isopropyl alcohol dampening system. Isopropanol after evaporation of the alcohol vapor is toxic and harmful to human health caused by harmful effects, the threshold of many developed countries, the provisions of isopropyl alcohol in the workplace only 200-400ml/m3. Through the implementation of this standard to reduce the use of isopropyl alcohol, and eventually completely replace the printing industry.
Promote the application of the CTP system.
The printing industry in China plate mostly or imagesetter film made of PS version printed on the machine. Film silver halide photographic material, which contains silver ions, fixing to waste fixer also contains a lot of silver ions, and these substances directly into the environment, cause harm to the aquatic environment, while developing, fixing flush liquid waste containing large amounts of organic , a hazardous waste, the state prohibits the direct discharge of some flaws in the environmental management of the domestic enterprises, some enterprises not pay enough attention to gradually strengthen the environmental management through environmental labeling, achieve environmental progress.
Through the development of standards of environmental label printing in the design, manufacture, use, abandoned the four life cycle stages of the process, not only Qiangdian design and production process control, but also printed products, a clear quantitative requirements in the use and disposal stage.
To improve the technological level of China's printing industry, and promote industrial structure adjustment of China's printing industry and the transformation and upgrading, bigger and stronger as a good medium-sized eco-friendly printing companies, out of the heavily polluting small workshop-style low inferior enterprises and the promotion of by the printing power "to the goal of printing power," change.
Green printing has become an important starting point of the government departments in charge of industrial restructuring, To some people's health is directly linked to the print product specified by administrative means to the environmental standards of production, excellent enterprises to quickly and stronger, with certain conditions enterprises, and guide them through technological upgrading standards for those who do not know progressive enterprise by expanding the variety of green printing be eliminated, and ultimately the optimization of industrial structure.
Recently, the General Administration of Press and Publication Organization of People's Education Press People's Music Publishing House, People's Fine Arts Publishing House, Beijing Normal University Press, Education, Science Press, Shanghai Education Press, Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press and Beijing, PR Printing Co., Ltd. printing of the People's Education Press, Beijing Imperial Printing Co., Ltd., Sichuan Xinhua Printing House, Sichuan Xinhua Color Printing Co., Ltd., Sichuan Jin Zhu Printing Co., Ltd., Luen Cheong Printing Co., Ltd. in Sichuan, Chengdu Hi-tech Zone, Longjiang color Fall 2010 textbook Green Printing pilot plant in Linyi, Shandong Xinhua Printing Logistics Group, Shanghai Zhonghua Printing Co., Ltd., Commercial Press, Shanghai printing and other units to carry out, as the starting point of environmental protection requirements for school textbooks printed, involving seven published The community of 100 kinds of materials, printing capacity of more than 14 million copies, covering 20 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities).
Printing environmental standards after the enactment of part of the printing products, such as school textbooks, government procurement, print and children's books and other varieties strictly enforce the standards; extended to the next beverage packaging, puffed food packaging, pharmaceutical packaging, healthcare packaging cosmetic packaging and other printed matter, and gradually expand the category of varieties, and finally to achieve complete coverage of the green printing.
