This article overviews the history of PET bottle recycling in Japan focusing on its progress and environmental aspect. First, development of PET bottle recycling is discussed in relation to the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law. Different recycling technologies, material recycling and chemical recycling, are compared. As an approach from manufacturers and vendors of PET bottles, the voluntary design guidelines for designated PET bottles are reviewed. Then, after looking into the recent situation of export of postconsumer PET bottles for recycling mainly in China, an LCA (life-cycle assessment) study of PET bottle recycling including transboundary recycling is reviewed from the viewpoint of environmental loads.
