Abstract :
In order to strengthen the management of municipal plastics waste, the amount, development trend and factors interactions of the generation should be studied. On the basis of studying the dynamic response relationship between the generation course and the ciety, economy and environment, this paper established a system dynamics model about the generation system of municipal plastics waste based on VENSIM software. Using Beijing as an example city, the simulations and prediction were conducted in scenarios the result of which was analyzed comprehensively, and the suggestions for the regulation and management of plastics waste were put forward.
