components
Steel
PVC and
polystyrene
Polyurethane
Steel can be recycled by being re-melted and included as
a secondary material in the production of new steel .
Hard PVC is granulated and re-melted .
Use plastic sorting and recycling systems where they are
locally available, otherwise incinerating plastic has the
added benefit of generating energy, which can be used
for, for example, combined heat and power production .
Like other plastics, polyurethane can be recycled in
two primary ways: mechanical recycling, in which the
material is reused in its polymer form, and chemical
recycling that takes the material back to its various
chemical constituents .
