PLASTIC WASTE AND DIFFICULTIES IN MANAGEMENT IN VIETNAM
The paper has applied a number of traditional research methods to preliminarily assess plastic pollution and some difficulties in plastic waste management in Vietnam. Research results showed that plastic waste in Vietnam arises from many different sources; The total amount of plastic waste in Vietnam is 3.27 million tons/year, accounting for about 8-12% of household solid waste and about 5% of medical waste; The treatment and recycling of plastic waste is still limited, up to 90% of plastic waste is burned, buried or discharged into the environment, only about 10% of plastic waste is recycled. Although the system of legal documents on waste management is increasingly being improved, there are still many difficulties and inadequacies: there are no in-depth studies and legal regulations, standards and regulations. techniques for controlling microplastics in products and goods such as cosmetics, detergents... as well as in wastewater treatment; There are no specific legal regulations on microplastic waste management, reducing waste from single-use plastic products; Plastic waste recycling has not been officially implemented, it is still mainly carried out by private units; The application of environmental protection tax on plastic bags and the EPR mechanism still have many problems and shortcomings.To improve management efficiency, it is necessary to apply a combination of solutions from raising public awareness, completing legal documents and properly managing production sources and disposal of waste containing plastic and microplastic.
