Quick Response for Special Needs. Task 28. Recovering International Recyclables from In-flight Service
项目名称: Quick Response for Special Needs. Task 28. Recovering International Recyclables from In-flight Service
摘要: The USDA mandates that regulated (i.e., international) waste can be handled only by a person or business with a compliance agreement with the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). In general, waste from arriving international flights must be disposed of by incineration, sterilization, or grinding into an approved sewage system. While the USDA APHIS Recycling Material Exemption identifies situations in which materials can be recycled, in most cases these materials are still disposed of. Research is needed to identify opportunities for increasing the share of international waste that is recycled, including a review of practices in other countries. The objective of this research is to prepare a primer for airport industry practitioners that describes current practice regarding recovering recyclables from flights arriving from international destinations.
