Abstract

In the age of greater environmental awareness, sustainable development in construction sector could be very significant. Despite of increasing awareness of recycling by industry, the practice of construction and demolition waste management is not well-planned in China. Japan has promoted orderly and effective management in handling the waste with reinforced legislations. This paper reviews the existing national policies on construction and demolition waste management in both Japan and China. It aims to find out the reasons behind the performance gap. Comparative analysis is used to compare existing national policies from four perspectives, including regulations and codes, incentives, stakeholders’ responsibilities and supervisory. The findings reveal the reasons attributed to low recycling rate in China, including (a) incoherent and uncooperative policies, (b) failure to guide practice, (c) recycling as a voluntary option, (d) ignorance of responsibilities on related stakeholders, (e) involvement of excess official departments, (f) light punishment, (g) weak monitoring.
