46 Industrial plastic scrap

All thermoplastics (plastics which soften on heating), including composites containing fillers and fibre reinforcements, may be recycled by granulating or shredding into pellet or flake form for reuse. However, quality degrades slightly and repeated use eventually results in a 'cooked' material. Subject to product specification, best practice is the use of an appropriate mixture of reclaimed and virgin materials.

There are now 100 plastics recyclers in the UK. To distinguish different types of plastic, see Environmental labelling.

The British Plastics Federation advises that good design for recycling should allow for easy disassembly of a product into its component parts, and avoid the use of too many different types of plastic

A unique non-chemical process provides destruction of CDs and CDRoms, providing an environment friendly solution and offering security. All material from CDs, CDRoms and packaging is reused or recycled (paper / polycarbonate / paint / lacquer / aluminium). The cased CD material goes to the decollation centre where constituent parts - CD, plastic case, paper inserts - are separated. The cases are granulated, producing a crystal polystyrene pellet which can be reused in new CD cases (providing CD manufacturers with an environment-friendly process and dealing with surplus stock), and in artificial wood and insulating foam. Paint, aluminium and data from the CD surface is removed for use in electric cable insulation. The cleaned CD is then granulated and compounded into polycarbonate with many uses, eg burglar alarm boxes, street lighting lenses. Prisoners are employed, gaining a skill / NVQ while helping to reduce environmental damage. To eliminate royalty payments, manufacturers must provide auditable Certificates of Destruction. The plant has expansion capacity to handle all anticipated volumes from Western Europe. (Updated Oct 2003)
