When it comes to green travel, many people will think of shared bicycles. According to statistics, China produces nearly 3 million used shared bicycles every year. How do these abandoned bicycles "turn waste into treasure" and realize recycling?

Scrap bicycle tires cleverly "transform" environmentally friendly plastic court

In Guizhou Qiannan Buyi and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, a group of newly built rural primary schools "net red playground" is particularly eye-catching. The basketball court in the central school of Lishuping Village, Idang Town, Xingyi City, is bright in color and novel in shape. During the recess activities, the students play and run in the new court and have a lot of fun.

The basketball court is made of more than 2000 processed tires of shared bicycles and electric bicycles. The polyurethane produced by the bicycle tire can be laid into an environmentally friendly plastic court after being broken. All the indicators of the raw materials are in line with the standards of "synthetic material surface sports venues for primary and secondary schools".

Fine disassembly to maximize the value of scrap bicycles

In fact, scrap shared bicycles are all "treasure". In the scrapped bicycle dismantling base in Neijiang, Sichuan, a scrapped bicycle is transported to the dismantling workshop in an orderly manner, and the workers do fine dismantling of different parts of the bicycle.

Each bicycle can be recycled more than 99%

The initial disassembled bicycle can be divided into scrap aluminum, scrap iron, scrap plastic, magnesium and aluminum 4 types of waste materials, metal materials can be smelted into metal ingots for recycling, Other materials will also be recycled or harmless treatment. After continuous exploration, shared bicycles have achieved a full-life cycle management model from production, use, recycling to reuse.
