· Waste in production decrease productivity and a non-value added to product. So now days, every manufacturing industry has Total waste management Program which is helping an industry to reduce and eliminate waste, hence increase in productivity and keep low cost over per unit of product.
5. Engage the help of not only local recycling coordinators but also nearby colleges and universities who may be interested in Waste and Recycling related school projects. Recently in Ann Arbor, Michigan owners of small and mid-size manufacturing facilities were offered pro-bono work by University of Michigan student engineers. These engineers
· The process is carried out in two connected in-line reactors for pyrolysis and reforming steps. The impurities in the plastic waste remain in the reactor and they do not have any contact with the reforming catalyst. This prevents the catalyst from deactivating. The process temperature is lower than in gasification which lowers the production costs.
For the separation of the high-density polymers, up to 40% w / v sodium chloride was used. The recoveries of the polymers ranged from 70 to 99.70%. In post-consumer recycled plastic waste
Plastic is one of the world’s most-used materials. Technically sophisticated, lightweight and cheap, plastics suit a broad spectrum of uses. The problem with plastic lies not in how it is used, which is generally harmless, but in end-of-life management of products made from it. Since 1950, close to half of all plastic has ended up in landfill or dumped in the wild, and only 9% of used
· Bangladesh is 10 th among the major plastic waste contributor countries of the world. Here 3,000 ton of plastic waste is generated every day which results more than 1 million ton every year. Simco Spinning and Textiles Ltd (Bhaluka, Mymensingh) is the only factory in Bangladesh, recycling garments wastes into textile.
· Europe is at crossroads regarding its management of plastic, plastic waste and the plastic waste trade. Rapidly growing amounts of plastic have negative environmental and climate impacts. Plastic and plastic waste are traded worldwide. Exporting plastic waste from the EU to Asia is a means of dealing with insufficient recycling capacities in the EU.

· manufacturing, and then melted to make the new product by extrusion. Also, the reprocessed material can be blended with material to obtain superior results. After the plastic is sorted, cleaned, dried and then directly processed into end products, the quantity of the waste plastic will be dramatically reduced (Figure2).
· Municipal () and commercial mixed recyclable waste. for sorting and or processing. The waste stream can be sorted into various constituent components (eg paper, plastics, glass, metals, WEEE etc and the residual material) depending on the set-up at each particular MRF. Commercially derived waste is treated in much the same manner.
· Consumers can turn plastic waste into valuable products at minimal cost using the open source technologies associated with DRAMdistributed recycling and additive manufacturing.
· In this chapter, you will learn how plastic waste is recycled to make new products. Moulding recycled plastic pellets into products. There are two steps to making plastic bottles, injection moulding and blow moulding. Step 1 injection moulding to make preforms from pellets. Injection moulding is used to make plastic "preforms" of bottles.
· The recycling process is a three part cycle that can produce some great things for not only the community but the country as well. A few of the benefits of the recycling process are Recycling helps create jobs not only in the recycling industry but in the manufacturing industry as well. Recycling saves energy Greenhouse gas emissions can be
