activities, including collecting the recyclables,
sorting and processing the recyclable
materials into raw materials such as fibers,
and manufacturing new products out of these
raw materials.
The recyclable materials collected need to be
sorted by the type of material to facilitate
processing, and need to be broken down into
its basic elements, and then be reused as raw
materials to produce new products.
