Abstract
The processing system of wastes in Japan has been established with various ordinances. The so-called recycling-based society however, does not seem to be realized sufficiently without public graduation from deep-rooted social prejudice against wastes.

Key words: social prejudice, voluntary standard in the industrial world, critical conditions of processing and treatment facilities, market formation, recycling-based society
