Description:

The plastics industry has developedconsiderably since the invention of various routes for the production ofpolymers from petrochemical sources. Plastics have substantial benefits interms of their low weight, durability and lower cost relative to many othermaterial types. A major portion of plastic produced each year is used to makedisposable items of packaging or other short-lived products that are discardedwithin a year of manufacture. These two observations alone indicate that ourcurrent use of plastics is not sustainable. Recycling is one of the mostimportant actions currently available to reduce these impacts and representsone of the most dynamic areas in the plastics industry today. Recyclingprovides opportunities to reduce oil usage, carbon dioxide emissions and thequantities of waste requiring disposal.

Plastic recycling refers to the process ofrecovering waste or scrap plastic and reprocessing it into useful product. Dueto the fact that plastic is non-biodegradable, it is essential that it isrecycled as part of the global efforts to reducing plastic and other solidwaste in the environment.

Markets and uses for recycled plastics arerapidly expanding. Plastic containers are being collected at the curb forrecycling in nearly 500 communities, representing more than 4 millionhouseholds. Demand for recycled plastic will continue to expand and new marketswill develop as technologies permit the efficient segregation and reprocessingof high-purity resins. Improved quality of resins, environmental issues andhigher prices for virgin resin will contribute to growth.
