T/CRRA 0305-2022 Recycling plastic product carbon footprint calculation method
Basic Information
Scope
This document provides the basic principles, scope definition, data acquisition methods, calculation methods, and reporting content for calculating the carbon footprint of recycled plastic products. This document is applicable to the calculation of the carbon footprint of recycled plastic pellets or granules made from waste thermoplastic plastics through processes such as pre-treatment and physical recycling. The main types of plastics include recycled polyethylene (R-PE), recycled polypropylene (R-PP), and recycled polyethylene terephthalate (R-PET), with other types of plastics used as reference. This document is not applicable to plastics derived from hazardous waste such as medical waste and pesticide packaging, or radioactive waste.
