New Recycling Technologies for Inorganic Waste
Less than a decade ago, waste grades including tyres, tetrapack and polystyrene were all classed as non-recyclable and taken straight to landfill in most countries. These and many others have quickly become common recycling grades, a result of progression in technology and the economy of recycling.
From a slightly different angle, as research and development continue, commonly recycled grades (plastics, paper, glass and metal) can be recycled more efficiently, or possibly turned into a more valuable product. For example, thermal depolymerisation of plastics to regenerate a liquid fuel is a novel recycling of plastics. This is also a form of up-cycling, as the product produced is more valuable than the original waste stream.
Don’t Waste has an R&D department which is dedicated to staying at the forefront of recycling technologies. As soon as new technologies become economically viable, we are ready to tap into them to reduce the amount of waste to landfill. We are also always exploring small scale operations and willing to partner with them to achieve waste to landfill reduction.
