Abstract
The total fiber consumption in Japan is 2,317,000 tons per year, and 2,076,000 tons of fiber waste is abandoned each year. This talk summarizes the consumption, generation, and recycling of fibrous waste in Japan. As the rate of fiber recycling (excluding secondhand clothing) is decreasing, the development of new usage for fibrous waste is seriously needed.
