Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this paper is to define the level of recycling standards and its process in paper scrap. As pollution is increased by improperly treated paper scrap, the government has recently strengthened the management of the paper scrap.
Methods: In this study, the current status of paper scrap recycling was investigated through a 2012 field survey, and the classification and recycling standards for paper scrap in developed countries and institutions were also investigated through a literature review in order to introduce optimal recycling standards.
Results: As a result, the contents of contaminants were identified as the most important recycling standard, and the contents of contaminants in paper scrap was measured at less than 1.0% at most companies. The recycling standard for paper scrap was determined to be below 3% contaminants in the case of paper and 5% in the case of board. In this study, recycling stage was determined by considering regulations on resources and practices in the field.
Conclusions: The recycling standard for paper scrap was determined to be below 3% and 5% contaminants for paper and board, respectively.
