Vein industry 1998.10

Two flows are formed in the logistics in a recycling-oriented society. One is the arterial logistics which connects the consumer with the consumers, and the other one is the vein logistics which flows backward the road which came in for the recycling and the reuse of the waste which comes out from the consumer. These two distributions are formed to enable the circle of circulation. Toward a recycling-oriented society, the voice that worries about the collection and the logistics side is large than the recycle technology itself. The formation of venous logistics is urgent. By the way, this vein logistics is expected to become a huge market. The environmental agency predicts that Japan domestic waste management business will be the market for 12.82 trillion yen in 2010. In addition, according to the industrial environmental vision that the Ministry of Trade and Industry has compiled in 1994, 15 trillion yen in 2010, the environmental business market is going to be an ultra-35 trillion yen, among them Resicle business, the waste treatment business and venous industry is about 24 trillion yen. It is possible to calculate that the venous distribution market is close to approximately 8 trillion yen because the cost of collection and handling of the cycle costs is about 30% now. The Japan trucking business is currently 12 to 13 trillion yen, most of which is arterial distribution for product supply. If venous logistics is required in various fields for a recycling-oriented society, it is certain that the vein industry market equivalent to arterial distribution will occur.
