Recycling...


Recycling is the term generally used to describe the reuse of processed materials as feedstock for a new product.

Many materials can be recycled and the most common examples arepaper, glass, metal and plastic.

The major advantages of recycling is to minimize the use of natural sources, often not renewable and minimizing the amount of wasterequiring final treatment, such as grounding, or incineration.

The concept of recycling is only for the materials that they can return to its original state and be transformed back into a product like it in all itsfeatures. The concept of recycling is different from reuse.

The recycling or reuse is to turn a given material already processed inanother. A clear example of the difference between the two conceptsis the recycling of paper.
