Table D-2 Details of calculation of the material flow of plastics in Thailand, 2010 (continued) No. Description 9 10 Plastic product (Thermoplastic) Plastic product (Thermosetting) Value (Tonnes/year) 2,568,123 463,344 191 Assumption and Calculation This amount of exported products does not include the amount of electrical and electronic devices and automotive parts because these plastics are imported with the electrical and electronic industry and automotive industry. Thus, 949,077 tonnes (pure plastic products) was used as the exported product flow in the material flow of plastics in Thailand. The assumption is this amount includes only thermoplastic products (Custom Department, 2013). The amount of plastic product generation is 2,568,123 tonnes/year because PIU presented that 90%- 95% of raw material (masterbatch) was changed into products. Thus, the assumption is 90% of thermoplastic materials was changed into plastic products, but it was deducted by the amount of exported product before put in the material flow (PIU, 2010). 90% of thermoplastic pellet consumption (3,192,000 tonnes/year) was 2,872,800 tonnes/year of thermoplastic products. 90% of imported thermoplastic pellets (716,000 tonnes/year) was 644,400 tonnes/year of thermoplastic products. Thus, the total thermoplastic products were 3,517,200 tonnes/year. This amount was deducted by 949,077 tonnes of exported products, so the thermoplastic products were consumed in the plastic consumption process of material flow was 2,568,123 tonnes in 2010 The amount of thermosetting products generation is 463,344 tonnes/year because PIU presented that 90%-95% of raw material (masterbatch) was changed into products. Thus, the assumption is 90% of raw material (masterbatch) is changed into plastic products, and it does not imported and exported (PIU, 2010).

Thus, the total thermosetting products were 463,344 tonnes/year. The amount of plastic wastes from industries. This amount is from the residues of trimming process and damaged products from the plastic industry, and these wastes are the plastic packaging of raw materials in the other industries (e.g., plastic sacks, trays molds). The amount of industrial plastic waste generation is presented in PCD report. Thus, 1,831,750 tonnes/year of industrial plastic wastes is used to calculate (PCD, 2010). (Not present in the material flow) The assumption is 50% of industrial plastic waste generation (1,831,750 tonnes) is generated in the manufacturing process (Not present in the material flow) The amount of industrial plastic wastes from manufacturing is recycled in the recycling factories. According to PCD (2010), 155,000 tonnes/year of industrial plastic wastes was recycled in recycling factories, so this amount was used in the material flow of plastic in Thailand. 8% was presented by calculating in to percentage of recycling rate of industrial plastic wastes (PCD, 2010). The assumption is 50% of total industrial plastic waste for recycling (155,000 tonnes) of the manufacturing process was sent to recycle in the recycling process (PCD, 2010)

Assumption and Calculation<br />
90% <strong>of</strong> thermo sett<strong>in</strong>g pellet consumption (293,000 tonnes/year) was 263,700 tonnes/year <strong>of</strong><br />
thermosett<strong>in</strong>g products. 90% <strong>of</strong> imported thermosett<strong>in</strong>g pellets (221,827 tonnes/year) was 199,644<br />
tonnes/year <strong>of</strong> plastic product. Thus, the total thermosett<strong>in</strong>g products were 463,344 tonnes/year.<br />
The amount <strong>of</strong> plastic wastes from <strong>in</strong>dustries. This amount is from the residues <strong>of</strong> trimm<strong>in</strong>g process<br />
and damaged products from the plastic <strong>in</strong>dustry, and these wastes are the plastic packag<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> raw<br />
materials <strong>in</strong> the other <strong>in</strong>dustries (e.g., plastic sacks, trays molds). The amount <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>dustrial plastic<br />
waste generation is presented <strong>in</strong> PCD report. Thus, 1,831,750 tonnes/year <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>dustrial plastic wastes<br />
is used to calculate (PCD, 2010). (Not present <strong>in</strong> the material flow)<br />
The assumption is 50% <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>dustrial plastic waste generation (1,831,750 tonnes) is generated <strong>in</strong> the<br />
manufactur<strong>in</strong>g process (Not present <strong>in</strong> the material flow)<br />
The amount <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>dustrial plastic wastes from manufactur<strong>in</strong>g is recycled <strong>in</strong> the recycl<strong>in</strong>g factories.<br />
Accord<strong>in</strong>g to PCD (2010), 155,000 tonnes/year <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>dustrial plastic wastes was recycled <strong>in</strong> recycl<strong>in</strong>g<br />
factories, so this amount was used <strong>in</strong> the material flow <strong>of</strong> plastic <strong>in</strong> <strong>Thailand</strong>. 8% was presented by<br />
calculat<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> to percentage <strong>of</strong> recycl<strong>in</strong>g rate <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>dustrial plastic wastes (PCD, 2010).<br />
The assumption is 50% <strong>of</strong> total <strong>in</strong>dustrial plastic waste for recycl<strong>in</strong>g (155,000 tonnes) <strong>of</strong> the<br />
manufactur<strong>in</strong>g process was sent to recycle <strong>in</strong> the recycl<strong>in</strong>g process (PCD, 2010)
