JPEC (Japan PVC Environmental Affairs Council) issued #60 of PVC News. This issue marks the 15th year since publication, therefore we asked Ms. Miyoko Matsuda (commissioner for Japan Atomic Energy Commission, Cabinet Office, and former professor at Fuji Tokoha University) for a special contribution. We also had headlines such as gthe re-evaluation of PVC coated cables for government office buildingsh and gNew applications for PVC containing mixed plastic wastes from the construction sectorh. As for the gVisionh section we had Ms. Yuko Morifs (President of Hachiou and also a counselor on the Environment) opinion regarding the treatment of industrial wastes. On the gRecyclingh section we introduced Ube Industriesf and Tosohfs treatment of plastic wastes from the cement industry. At the gInformationh section we introduced the summary of the endocrine disruptor issue and the outcome of research on plasticizers.
