Plastic Recycling
Recycling Processes
- Bring used plastics to a recycling center.
- The plastic is brought to a recycling plant where it is washed and inspected.
- The recyclable plastic is washed and chopped into tiny flakes.
- The flakes are separated in a flotation tank.
- The flakes are dried and then melted into a liquid.
- The liquid is fed through a screen for even more cleaning. It comes out in long strands.
- The strands are cooled and cut into pellets.
- The pellets make their way to manufacturers who use them to make new products.
Glass Recycling
- Bring glass to recycling centers.
- The glass is sorted by color at these centers.
- The glass is transported to a processing facility and cleaned and crushed into a cullet.
- The cullet is brought to a manufacturing plant and mixed with more sand, soda ash and limestone.
- The mixture is heated in a furnace and turned into a liquid.
- The liquid is poured into molds and shaped into new product
Recycling Paper
- Bring your paper to the recycling center.
- The paper is sorted and transported to a pulping facility.
- The paper is soaked and heated in huge vats, becoming pulp. Chemicals in the liquid separate the ink from the paper.
- The pulp is screened and cleaned to remove glue, other debris and any remaining ink.
- The pulp is refined and beaten to make it ready to become paper again.
- The pulp is fed into a machine that spits out the pulp onto a flat moving screen where it forms sheets.
- The sheets are rolled and dried.
