Hi! Did you know that the things in your recycling bin are actually valuable resources? They will soon take an adventure known as the cycling process. Plastic can change entirely. For example, a plastic water bottle may become another water bottle, or something entirely different such as a pair of pants. In the plastic factory, known as the MRF, the trucks tip over the plastic they carry, and drive away. It is put into a conveyor belt where workers inspect the plastic, and if something is not supposed to be there, than it is put somewhere else. They go through a series of spinning discs, which store the cardboard someplace else. They then go through a bottle breaker, which obviously, breaks bottles and glass, where they are put into a special conveyor. When the fibers are on the conveyor, the workers take out anything not plastic. Metal objects are sucked up by a magnet, where they are dragged into another place. Lastly, they are turned into giant boxes that are heavy. Anyways, that’s it! Have a good day!
