15 Aug 2022 --- The UK’s Environment Agency has successfully prosecuted a businessman for illegally exporting banned household waste. Tianyong Wang, who has registered numerous companies at a site in the Midlands, also formerly handled waste for recycling giant TerraCycle. The banned waste included nappies, clothing, textiles, tins and electrical items and was sent to Indonesia in 2019. Containers were sent under the guise of holding used plastic bottles, which are legal to transport to the country.
